📆 July 20, 2025
👥 Attendance: 6,000+

TNA Slammiversary 2025 lived up to its billing as one of the biggest shows in company history, with jaw-dropping surprises, brutal showdowns, shocking title changes—and the long-awaited return of a true icon. Here’s your complete breakdown of the unforgettable night:

🏆 Knockouts World Tag Team Championship

The Elegance Brand (Ash & Heather By Elegance w/ M & The Personal Concierge) def. The IInspiration (Cassie Lee & Jessie McKay)
Opening the show with finesse and chaos, Ash and Heather dominated early, isolating McKay. Lee’s hot tag turned the tide, but interference from M at ringside—cracking Lee with a torch—opened the door for Ash to connect with Rarified Air and retain the gold.

😤 Surprise Match: Eric Young vs. The Home Town Man

The Home Town Man def. Eric Young w/ Northern Armory (Judas Icarus & Travis Williams)
After mocking the New York crowd, Young got an impromptu challenge—and a surprise loss. Despite interference, Young was rolled up by The Home Town Man as his crew bickered with fans.

🔥 6-Man Tag: TNA vs. Fourth Rope

Real 1, Zilla Fatu & Josh Bishop def. Jake Something, Mance Warner & Steve Maclin
A chaotic brawl saw chair shots, missed tags, and high-impact strikes. A miscommunication between Something and Warner led to Real 1’s “Eat Defeat” for the win, continuing Fourth Rope’s hostile takeover attempts.

💥 Grudge Match: Cedric Alexander vs. Mustafa Ali

Mustafa Ali w/ Order 4 def. Cedric Alexander
This one was all-out war. Outside interference, high-flying madness, and multiple near-falls defined this instant classic. Despite a near win with the Lumbar Check, Alexander was finally downed by Ali’s second 450 Splash.

🎤 Joe Hendry Speaks

Ahead of the main event, Hendry vowed to leave as World Champion.

🧨 NXT x TNA War

The System (Edwards, Myers, JDC) & Matt Cardona def. NXT’s DarkState (Shugars, Lennox, James & Griffin)
DarkState started strong, but experience prevailed. After a flurry of finishers, including Cardona’s Radio Silence and Edwards' Boston Knee Party, The System stood tall.

🛑 Injury Update

Myron Reed replaces Trey Miguel in the ladder match due to injury (BIOFLEX Report).

👊 Tessa Blanchard vs. Indi Hartwell

Indi Hartwell def. Tessa Blanchard w/ Victoria Crawford
In a physical clash, Hartwell survived Blanchard’s Magnum and answered with a modified Full Nelson Slam to win. Post-match, Blanchard viciously assaulted both Hartwell and Gia Miller, leading to her indefinite suspension.

💥 Title vs. Title: NXT Women’s Champion vs. Knockouts Champion

Jacy Jayne def. Masha Slamovich – Winner Takes All
Interference from Fatal Influence, Fallon Henley, and more couldn’t keep Masha down—until a delayed ref count allowed Jayne to recover and hit Rolling Encore. Jayne now holds both titles as TNA President Carlos Silva handed her the Knockouts Championship.

🏆 X-Division Championship

Leon Slater def. Moose – NEW CHAMPION
Slater’s swanton-filled highlight reel ended in history as he hit the Swanton 450 twice to defeat Moose and become the youngest X-Division Champion ever. Post-match, Moose showed class, placing the belt around Slater’s waist—and AJ Styles made his epic return to TNA!

🔩 Ladder Match – World Tag Team Championship

The Hardys (Matt & Jeff) def. The Nemeths, The Rascalz, and FIR$T CLA$$
Absolute chaos with ladders, moonsaults, and Swanton Bombs. In the end, the legendary Hardys climbed the production ladder to claim gold once again—becoming 4-time TNA World Tag Team Champions. Bully Ray returned post-match to challenge The Hardys for Bound For Glory!

🏆 Main Event – TNA World Championship

Trick Williams def. Mike Santana & Joe Hendry
Williams battled through a wild triple threat where injuries, referee distractions, and Frankie Kazarian interference all played a role. Just when Santana had Hendry down, Trick returned from outside to toss Santana out and steal the pin. Still champ.
