Video: TNA Rebellion 2025 Recap

A video aired recapping this past weekend’s TNA Rebellion 2025 show.

In-Ring: Joe Hendry, Trick Williams

The special live episode of TNA Impact from Irvine, CA. kicks off with TNA World Champion Joe Hendry coming to the ring, as Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt welcome the viewing audience to the post-TNA Rebellion 2025 episode of the weekly program.

Hendry settles inside the squared circle to a big pop, and gets on the microphone. Hendry brings up what went down on WWE NXT earlier this week, and then proceeds to call out Trick Williams.

The WWE NXT Superstar appears on the big screen and says, “Trick Willy is NOT in the billy!” He tells Hendry someone very well may get hurt later in the evening. Hendry then says he thought Trick was better than that, noting he didn’t show up live.

He tells the fans there will be live action tonight, however, as he will join forces with The Hardys to take on Frankie Kazarian and new TNA World Tag-Team Champions The Nemeth Brothers in the main event of the evening.

Backstage: The Rascalz

Backstage, The Rascalz duo of Zachary Wentz and Trey Miguel appear. Wentz is fired up as he will be challenging Moose for the TNA X-Division Championship on tonight’s show. “Smoke ’em if you got ’em!” wraps things up, and the show heads into the first commercial break of the evening.

Video: Sami Callihan, Mance Warner

A video aired recapping the Barbed Wire Massacre match between Mance Warner and Sami Callihan at TNA Unbreakable 2025.

Backstage: Santino Marella, Sami Callihan, Steph De Lander, Mance Warner

When the show returns, Sami Callihan is backstage talking with TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella, when in walks Mance Warner and Steph De Lander. Callihan asks if Santino set him up for a parent trap ambush.

De Lander brings up having to watch what Callihan did to Warner, and said they weren’t able to work TNA Rebellion 2025 because of the brutality of the Barbed Wire Massacre match at TNA Unbreakable 2025. She says that’s messing with their money.

After some more back-and-forth comments, Callihan and Warner agree that what they went through at TNA Unbreakable 2025 in the Barbed Wire Massacre made it so they have a respect for each other. They make it quite clear they still don’t like each other, but they shake hands and agree they’re done “for now.”

Mike Santana vs. Isaiah Moore

Inside the Impact Zone, the hip-hop sounds of Mike Santana’s theme music hits and out he comes through the crowd as always for the first match of the evening. Already in the ring is his opponent, Isaiah Moore.

The bell sounds and about two minutes later it sounds again, with Santana picking up the easy, emphatic squash match victory with his Spin the Block and other trademark finishing moves.

Winner: Mike Santana via Pinfall.

After the match, Santana gets on the microphone.

With the microphone cutting in-and-out, following the first fifteen minutes or so of the episode not airing on TNA+ at all, Santana makes the point that he respects Joe Hendry, but is now coming for him and his title.

Santana says after reaching the top of the mountain with a win over Mustafa Ali at TNA Rebellion 2025, he finds himself at the bottom of a new mountain. One that ends with him climbing it and capturing the TNA World Championship.

Video: Steve Maclin, Northern Armory

A video aired recapping Steve Maclin’s victory over Eric Young to retain the TNA International Championship at Rebellion 2025 and the Northern Armory’s attack on him afterwards.

Ringside: Steve Maclin, Northern Armory

TNA International Champion Steve Maclin, fresh off of his victory over Eric Young at TNA Rebellion 2025, makes his way to the ring for the next segment of the show. Before he can even reach the ring, however, he is blindsided and attacked from behind.

Travis Williams and Judas Icarus of The Northern Armory beat “Bulletproof” Maclin down. Eric Young joins in and it becomes a brutal three-on-one beat down, which once again culminates with the trio hanging and choking Maclin by a massive steel chain over the ring ropes.

Backstage: Northern Armory, Santino Marella, Steve Maclin

When the show returns, Maclin is in a full on rampage trying to get his hands on Young and The Northern Armory backstage. TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella makes a rematch between the two for next week’s show.

TNA X-Division Championship
Zachary Wentz vs. Moose (c)

It’s time for our second match of the evening, which features a title on-the-line, as The System’s Moose defends his TNA X-Division Championship against The Rascalz’ Zachary Wentz. Wentz makes his way out first and settles inside the squared circle accompanied by Trey Miguel.

The bad-ass entrance tune for Moose hits next and out comes the reigning, defending TNA X-Division Champion. He settles in the ring accompanied by Alisha Edwards. The bell sounds and this title tilt gets officially off-and-running.

Wentz starts off fast, as expected, but the bigger and stronger Moose slows him down and Donkey Kong’s him down to settle into the first prolonged offensive lead of the match. Wentz crashes and burns on the floor, courtesy of Moose.

The show heads into a mid-match commercial break with The Rascalz member laid out. When the show returns, Moose is dominating the action with ease. Wentz’ ribs injury is acting up and Moose is focusing on it. Wentz fights back and hits a moonsault to Moose on the floor.

Back in the ring, Wentz hits a twisting splash on the X-Division Champion for a close two-count. Moose stops Wentz dead in his tracks with a massive pop-up power bomb. He goes for the immediate follow-up pin attempt, yet somehow Wentz kicked out before the count of three.

Wentz hits two or three more major high spots for additional photo-finish near fall attempts, however ultimately in the end, interference from Alisha Edwards at ringside led to Moose finishing Wentz off for the victory to retain his TNA X-Division Championship.

Winner: Moose via Pinfall to retain the TNA X-Division Championship.

Backstage: Mustafa Ali, The Great Hands

Gia Miller was seen backstage trying to get an interview from Mustafa Ali about his loss to Mike Santana at Rebellion 2025. Ali and The Great Hands came out of their locker room and Ali walked past Miller looking disheveled. John Sklyer spoke on behalf of Tasha Steelz who was stated to not be here because of her getting hurt at Rebellion. Skyler stated that Ali was just a little rattled after Rebellion but Ali would rebuild after his loss to Mike Santana.

In-Ring: Cody Deaner, Santino Marella, Robert Stone, Victoria Crawford

When the show returns, Cody Deaner makes his way to the ring. He gets on the microphone and talks about how his TNA Wrestling contract expires after midnight tonight. He says if this is it for him, it’s been a dream come true.

All Deaner wanted to do since he was a kid is become a professional wrestler. The three letters under his feet in the ring are the one company that gave him the opportunity to do so. He talks about being a family man and having multiple kids.

As he continues talking, the familiar sounds of Santino Marella’s theme hits and out comes the TNA Director of Authority. He says he doesn’t have the power to renew his contract, but he did get him a match against Eddie Edwards at TNA Under Siege 2025 and if he wins, he’ll be able to stay.

Robert Stone’s theme hits and out he comes with Deputy Director of Authority, Victoria Crawford (Alicia Fox). He talks trash about Deaner.

He also announces Victoria vs. Masha Slamovich for the TNA Knockouts Championship at TNA Under Siege 2025. Before he leaves, Stone tells Santino he’s gonna be watching him very close. “Good luck,” he says before leaving.

Backstage: Santino Marella, Arianna Grace, Robert Stone, Victoria Crawford, Tessa Blanchard

The show heads into another commercial break on that note. When the show returns, Stone and Crawford are backstage with Santino, when up walks Tessa Blanchard gloating about how it’s time for someone who respects her to call the shots, like Stone.

Maggie Lee vs. Jody Threat

Back inside the Impact Zone, INSIGHT podcast host Chris Van Vliet is introduced on the broadcast. The theme for Maggie Lee hits and out she comes for the next match of the evening.

Jody Threat of Spitfire makes her way out next as her opponent. The bell sounds and we’re officially off-and-running with this one. Threat is a thousand miles per minute since the opening bell, and is taking it to Lee.

Lee slows down Threat’s momentum with a back elbow and a thumb to the eye. She hits a tower cutter off the ropes in the corner for a close two-count. After kicking out, Threat starts to fight back. She rolls Lee up for a close two-count. Threat hits her finisher seconds later for the win.

Winner: Jody Threat via Pinfall.

Backstage: Maggie Lee, Personal Concierge, Heather & Ash By Elegance

When the show returns, we see Maggie Lee looking upset in the locker room, when in walks Ash By Elegance, Heather By Elegance and George Iceman. They ask her what happened out there. She says she knows. They tell her the best thing to do now is to get a makeover. They pump her up and they leave.

On Stage: Indi Hartwell

Back inside the Impact Zone, Gia Miller is shown at the top of the stage. She introduces her guest at this time, the newest addition to the TNA Knockouts division, former WWE Superstar Indi Hartwell. She makes her way out to chants of “Indi! Indi!”

She says she’s proud to be here. She’s proud to be on this roster. She says she’s not just a TNA Knockout now, she’s the TNA Knockout now. Gia asks her if she’s got her sights set on anyone particular. She mentions having history with many of them.

Hartwell vows not to be just another member of the roster. She promises to shake things up. “Because Indi Hartwell has officially ‘crossed the line!’” Hannifan plugs her first TNA t-shirt as the brief segment wraps up.

KC Navarro vs. Leon Slater

We return inside the Impact Zone where the First Class theme hits. Out comes KC Navarro accompanied by AJ Francis. He settles inside the squared circle for the next match of the evening.

Leon Slater’s entrance tune hits and out comes the rookie sensation to a pretty healthy crowd reaction. Hannifan mentions Slater going viral because of the wild high spot from TNA Rebellion 2025. They also mention how close he came to winning the TNA X-Division Championship.

The bell sounds to get things started, and Navarro and Slater start zipping all over the ring, hitting the ropes on all four sides, before ultimate Navarro flips over Slater’s back and then dances to gloat afterwards.

Slater takes advantage of his lapse in focus and jumps in the early offensive lead. Slater knocks Navarro out to the floor. He goes to slingshot onto him, but lands on his feet and blasts him with a shot instead. Slater hits a modified Drive-By from the floor to the ring apron.

Back in the ring, Slater heads to the top-rope. Francis hops on the ring apron. The referee immediately ejects him from ringside. Slater hops off the ropes and taunts him, but then turns around into a huge tornado DDT from Navarro for a close two-count.

Slater hoists Navarro up for a suplex, but turns it into a twisting neckbreaker instead. He follows up with the cover, but only gets a count of two. Slater backs in the corner and stalks Navarro on the floor. He runs and leaps, flipping over the ring post from the ring to the floor and landing on his feet.

Navarro thought he out-smarted him by side-stepping him, but didn’t realize Slater landed on his feet. As Navarro finished gloating, he turned around into a big shot from Slater. Slater gets Navarro back in the ring and hits his top-rope swanton 450 for the victory.

Winner: Leon Slater via Pinfall.

Backstage: Masha Slamovich

Video: Joe Hendry, DarkState, Hank & Tank

Joe Hendry is shown talking with NXT Tag-Team Champions Hank & Tank. Tom Hannifan promotes their match against Darkstate for next Tuesday night’s episode of WWE NXT on The CW Network.

Six-Man Tag Team Match
Frankie Kazarian & The Nemeths (Ryan & Nic Nemeth) vs. Joe Hendry & The Hardys (Matt & Jeff Hardy)

The familiar sounds of Nic Nemeth’s “Wanted Man” entrance tune hits and out come the new TNA World Tag-Team Champions The Nemeth Brothers — Nic Nemeth and Ryan Nemeth. They are then joined by the self-proclaimed “King of TNA” Frankie Kazarian.

The viral smash hit “I Believe in Joe Hendry” hits for the second time inside the Impact Zone this evening. It transitions into “I Believe in Matt Hardy, and I Believe in Jeff Hardy,” with the two doing the same cheesy-smiley clapping. The trio head out as The Hardys regular theme plays and the crowd roars.

As soon as all six are settled inside the squared circle, they all begin duking it out. Hendry and The Hardys clear Kazarian and The Nemeths from the ring. They all do the dramatic Joe Hendry soap opera-style turn to the camera, and then all three lead the fans in a “DELETE! DELETE!” chant.

On that note, the show shifts gears and heads into a mid-match commercial break as the six-man tag-team main event of the evening continues. Back live, Matt Hardy is shown working over Ryan Nemeth. He hits his trademark middle rope leg drop for a two-count.

Matt ends up getting guzzled up in three-on-one fashion, as quick tags and referee distractions allow The Nemeth Brothers and Frankie Kazarian to manhandle and isolate Hardy in dominant fashion. They spit at Hendry, who comes in, prompting another beatdown while the referee is busy.

Jeff Hardy finally gets the much-needed hot tag for his team. He comes in off the tag with a ton of energy, taking it to all three members of the opposition, as they continue to feed into “The Charismatic Enigma’s” offensive flurry.

All six end up in the ring, with Hendry hitting fall-away slams on all three members of the opposing team. He plays to the crowd. He does the stomp-stomp-clap, “We will rock you!” routine and then connects with a Standing Ovation on Nemeth.

Out of nowhere, WWE NXT Superstar Trick Williams yanks Hendry out of the ring and attacks him. Nemeth hits Danger Zone on Jeff Hardy in the ring for the victory. After the match wraps up, Kazarian and The Nemeths celebrate and leave.

Winner: Frankie Kazarian & The Nemeths via Pinfall.

Trick is alone with Hendry in the ring. He lays him out with his Trick-Shot finisher. That’s how the special live episode of TNA iMPACT goes off the air.
