TNA Under Siege 2025

Greetings. Thank you first for the feedback, I am still getting the hang of it but will try to incorporate what you all want.

So, let’s get into Under Siege in which Steven Seagall plays a cook who has to save the USS Missouri from a group of mer……wait, what? Oh, not the movie, the TNA PLE last night. Right (That would also explain the lack of Tommie Lee Jones and Colm Meaney in the show hype.) Besides, we’re not at sea, we’re in Brampton, Ontario, Canada for TNA’s Under Siege 2025.

Let’s hit the pre-show first, shall we? We shall.

Rosemary vs. Xia Brookside

Rosemary is from the undead realm – which, technically, is just Earth, right? Xia comes in happy and will no doubt stay equanimous despite what Rosemary wants. Rosemary starts the show with a series of elbows but Brookside escapes and lands a flying kick and stomps Rosemary face first into the apron (say it with me the hardest part, etc.) Rosemary avoids a Brookside slide and starts to jaw with the announcers and fans. This gives Brookside a chance to climb to the top turnbuckle and land a body press to the floor. Rosemary escapes and gets the advantage, taking time to engage in a dialectic with the fans. Back in the ring, Rosemary beats on Brookside and punctuates it with a flying fore arm in the corner. Rosemary chokes Brookside with her boot and some forearms before locking a sleeper. Brookside elbows out of it and gets a quick two by bridging whilst Rosemary has the hold. A corner charge misses and Brookside gets the advantage by a Samoan drop, followed by a clothesline and a step up enziguri. Brookside gets two hip attacks and then stomps away at Rosemary in the corner. Brokside hits two meteoras; screaming before each one (uh-oh.) Rosemary reverses a third into a spear and gets two and a fraction. Another spear after a As Above, So Below reversal drops Brookside as Rosemary goes to the floor and pulls out..a staple gun. Really, seriously, this? Luckily the ref is alert and grabs the gun. However, Rosemary also got a belt. However, Brookside blocks a whipping attempt and, after a kick and a DDT, grabs the belt and (cue ominous music) starts to wail away on Rosemary for the DQ. She continues after the bell and then uses the buckle to pound on away on Rosemary. Security comes in and they get whipped for their sense of duty (the crowd doesn’t help by chanting “one more time.” I thought Canadians believed in law and order. I am shocked by this lack of respect for authority; this wouldn’t happen in East Texas, I tell you what.) Brookside obliges and then leaves with the belt in tow.

The authoritarian no-goodniks are interviewed backstage and Tessa Blanchard said that this is her house and that Grace should have stayed in her dad’s shadow instead of stepping into hers (nice line.) Robert Stone tries to get Tessa, Victoria Crawford and him to fist bump together, which is alien to Crawford and screws it up twice. Stone wisely reads the room and sends everyone away to end the oblivious. That was funny.

Santana vs. AJ Frrrrrr..wait a minute

“The realest” enters the ring via the crowd, again yeetless (good) AJ Francis then comes out with Navarro and…a crutch. Francis unfortunately informs us that he was so excited about the match that when he got out of the limo, he developed a case of turf toe. Which, he tells us is a real thing (side note: see Sanders, Deion.) It happens in the NFL all time but Brampton wouldn’t know this because all they play is hockey (and if they have real athletes (insert Maple Leafs game 7 joke here.) Navarro will be taking the place of Francis.

Santana starts by throwing Navarro into the ring. Francis has the mic for a bit and continues to run down Santana. Santana no-sells Navarro’s forearms and then engages in a series of ducks and ring rope reversals. Santana gets the full upper hand by landing a drop kick which sends Navarro to the corner. Santana lands a back elbow, elevated slam and a back splash. Santana also rips off Navarro’s shirt and throws it to the crowd. Santana then sets up Navarro and lands the “Three Amigos” suplexes and Guerrero shimmy. The crowd appreciates it and starts and “Eddie” chant. Santana elbows Navarro for two and then chops away at Navarro in the corner and the ropes. A curious spot happens as Navarro sends Santana to the ropes and Francis tries to trip Santana or holds him on the ropes with his crutch (seemed like he was late on this.)

Santana grabs Francis but it gives Navarro a chance to land the 305 (the 619 from Miami-Dade County) over the top rope. Santana reverses a slam to a tilt-a-whirl DDT for two. Navarro recovers and sends Santana to the corner and lands a flying forearm before Navarro snap mares him out of the corner and lands a double stomp. Navarro could not capitalize with a tilt-a-whirl DDT of his own as Santana reversed it into a Standing razors edge/powerbomb. Santana kips up and chases Navarro from corner to corner into an enziguri. A series of reversals and backflips set up a rolling cutter for Santana as a “TNA” chant occurs.

Navarro reversed a spin the block and an Outline in Chalk with a series of kicks. Navarro goes to the top and a frog splash gets two-and-a-fraction. Navarro sets up his Blessing In Disguise but Santana reverses that. Navarro gets two from a small package but a body press from the top rope is caught and turned to a buckle bomb and cannonball for two. Santana gives a shocked (perhaps incredulous) face for two as the crowd chants “this is awesome.” (Eh, it’s not bad, it’s actually fairly good.) Santana arises but Navarro dops to the canvas before the “Spin the Block” is hit. Ref checks on him and Santana hesitates – for a moment, Sensing the kill (and possible ruse) Santana hits the reverse powerbomb and then a Spin the Block for the victory.

Post match, Santana shows respect for Navarro and helps him up but a modern miracle happens as Francis cured of his turf toe and blasts Santana with his crutch and puts the boots to him. Santana sits conflicted on the turnbuckle and eventually, albeit very reluctantly, lays in a couple of boots, but not enjoy it.

Defying Krusty the Clown’s edict that going into the crowd is certain death; we go to the crowd and talk with a member of the Brampton Board of Trade (??? IS that like the Chamber of Commerce, friends from the True North?) He is also wearing a Macho Man Randy Savage shirt (wrong promotion but, eh….) We also get a member of the Brampton City Council next to him (luckily, it’s a weekend.) And, as the topper the Brampton Honey Badger mascot, Hammer (who are, after quick search, a member of the Canadian Elite Basketball League..Sure)

We get a Cody Deaner video borrowing from the Heath Slater angle of having a family and kids (four to be precise.) we go backstage and we get Eric Young pumping up Herr Deaner.

Cody Deaner vs. Eddie Edwards

As always, the System is in tow along with Alicia Edwards, who is wearing an outfit inspired by the Robin Thicke MTV music award performance (That one, you know, with Miley Cyrus and what not.)

We get a stare down and jaw jack which leads to a Deaner slap, exchanged chops and ropes run which ultimately leads to a THesz press and Elbow drop for Deaner. Edwards gets an elbow off a corner charge by Deaner, who follows it with a beat down via chops and kicks. Alicia chokes Deaner when Edwards drapes Deaner on the rope. Alicia continues a verbal beat down, Roxbury style on Deaner. Edwards methodically beats down Deaner with a series of elbows but a rear chin lock fails to submit Deaner.. Deaner starts to umm… Hulk up? Brampton up? To get up and kick Edwards after a backdrop attempt and then hits a top rope plancha cleanly out the ring and celebrates with the Bramptonites (or is it Bramptoners?) However, Edwards recovers and Deaner gets Blue Thunder Bombed on the ring apron (hardest part, etc.) Alicia again gets in Deaner’s face. Deaner just beats the count in but gets a flurry a punches from Edwards for his reward.

Deaner recovers and blocks two suplexes from Edwards and then reverses a third. He Brampton ups again and no-sells chops and starts to attack Edwards with hir right and then hits a clothesline. He bulldogs Edwards out of the corner and goes to the top, only to get kicked in the head and superplex by Edwards. A Ligerbomb gets two. Edwards throws Deaner to the floor and starts to jaw with the Brampton umm..BRamptonians? Deaner, however, takes advantage and hits a Salida Del Sol off the steps. Deaner throws Edwards back in the ring and gets two off a bodypress. He signals for a DDT (he was a huge fan of Jake Roberts, according to Hannifan,) but Edwards pushes Deaner to the ropes. Alicia channels some inner Brockton by lowblowing Deaner. Edwards then hits the Boston Knee Party and Edwards gets the victory.

The rest of the system arrives to bad mouth Deaner as Edwards waves goodbye to the crowd (shouldn’t it be the other way around and waving goodbye to Deaner?) Myers congrats Deaner on his midcard career as Deaner is in near tears. Moose bellows that Deaner is just like the rest of Brampton, all losers.

But wit, here comes Eric Young with the Northern Armory…to stick up for their proud and native land; which suddenly makes the macbre adjacent guys faces. Seems odd but I am not of Canada.) Young brings up how good Brampton is and how the System are American jerks (Easy now..) They want a six man tag. But wait, how to negate Alicia. Well, they ask Hammer for an assist (sigh, oh, TNA.) He gets a chant, too.

Eric Young and Northern Armory vs. The System (impromptu Six-men tag match – somewhere in the world, Teddy Long smiles.)

JDC and Icarus start. A long tie up ends with Icarus with armdragging JDC but answered with a kick and a hiptoss. JDC arm drags Icarus into the ropes but after a dueling kick, Icarus hits a knee and a stunner for two. Travis gets tagged and a running nee and clothesline combo before JDC tags in Myers, who is promptly chopped and a sleeper is applied. Myers escapes but Icarus grabs Myers for Travis to hit a drop kick.

Moose gets tagged and points to Young to enter, which he does, getting a huge pop. Moose shoulder blocks Young but Young gets a hiptoss of the run to the ropes. Travis is tagged but gets chopped for his efforts.

The crowd breaks into a full version of “Oh, Canada.” This gets the Armory fired up and take control as Icarus clears the ring of most of the System but gets kicked by to the canvas. Alicia distracts (Where’s the vaunted Honey Badger?) Icarus and JDC gets the tag and hits two European uppercuts. Myers is back in and hits the chin lock after a back suplex. A series of fast tags between the System gives the team to land a series of kicks and punches. Myers ends up in the ring and breaks a tag attempt with a boot to the back. We go to the chinlock but Icarus powers out and chops Myers and hits a Flatliner DDT for two. Eventually, Moose and EY simultaneously tag. Young gets a flip and flop and fly into the turnbuckle and hits a knee and a body press. Young to the top rope abut Moose chops him. A Superplex attempt is blocked and Northern Armory comes in the ring with a double powerbomb and stereo planchas to the other members of the System. A top rope elbow gets two but Moose comes back with a Spear for two.

It’s breaking down in (well, not Tulsa, what would be here? Kitchner? No Guelph, that’s it Guelph) as everyone gets their moves, Moose tries a spear but is caught with a right hand by Young. Moose does land a dropkick but a powerbomb is reversed into a DVD. Both combatants are in the corner and Alicia is beckoned to get a kendo stick under the ring. NOW, Hammer has seen enough and steps in but Alicia hits Hammer with the stick like someone in Swampscott insulted Sully. Moose gets the kendo stick but the Brampton City Councilman and the Board of Trade guys stop him from using it (is this Canadian C-Span?) When Moose gets back in the ring, it is a kick, wham Piledriver by Young and that’s all she wrote, eh.

Everyone celebrates on top of the ramp, including Hammer and the Politicians. Of course, if Boad of Trade guy really cared, he would get Deaner a job. Just saying.

We get introduced to the two latest members of the TNA Knockout Division, Myla Grace and Harley Hudson. Grace, who is Northern Irish, is a Indy wrestling star who appeared in Stardom, she is a six-yar vet. Hudson hails from the UK and is an eight-year vet. She also won the TNA UK Gut Check, according to the internet.

Spitfire vs. By Elegance

Spitfire arrives in purple camouflage (um…we can see you?) they also sporting “Do or Die” Tanks tops and Threat runs down the ring in her weird entrance and hugs some woman (later to found out, that woman is her mom.)

After that, IT’S THE MOMENT WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR. The Personal Concierge gets the mic and tells the Brampton crowd that they are going to do to Spitfire what the Panthers did to the Maple Leafs. He then pulls out a Maple Leafs flag and says “We’re going to rip them apart” which he does to the flag and then stomps on it. After declaring Brampton full of degenerate losers, he introduces By Elegance. By Elegance comes to the ring in Mountie Gear as Rewholdt tells us the Concierge is 1/16 Canadian and deserves respect (the math checks, I reckon>)

Spitfire clears the ring and goes to floor for tables a la the Dudleys (ah, that explains the Purple camo. Thanks.) Ash gets a back suplex and Heather hits threat with a hairspray bottle (first a lack of law and order and now not caring about the environment?) By Elegance beat up Threat as they go up the ramp as Ash grabs a hockey stick and a fuzzy stop sign. But Threat escapes and Ash hits Heather by accident. Threat goes in the back and grabs chairs but Ash grabs the stop sign and hits Threat (why didn’t Threat just use that? It was right there.) Luna arrives but is hit with the stop sign (see?) by Heather as Ash sets up the chairs. Heather also DDT’d Luna on the ramp. However, Threat escapes and suplexes Ash on the chairs.

Back down the ramp we go as Threat drags Ash and is thrown into the ring but Hather attacks her since (offscreen) Luna is incapacitated. Heather and Ash fight over the table but Ash grabs Threat and the duo smears lipstick all over Threat’s face, in front of her mom.

By Elegance sets up Rarified Air but Ash sees Luna with a chair. Heather superkicks Luna and Ash sets up a chair but Luna sends Ash head first into the chair via drop toehold and then clotheslines Ash whilst she sat on the chair. Heather, though, climbs to the top and hits a double stomp for two. Now, another leather belt gets into the picture and as Ash handcuffs Luna with it with said belt and By Elegance attacks Threat with a chair. Heather charges but gets kicked. Ash tries the handspring back elbow but Luna reverses it into a back suplex. Threat gets a litany of chairs into the ring; Heather dropkicks a chair to Threat. Meanwhile, Ash gets a Kendo stick from the Concierge and whacks away at Luna’s abdomen (no politicians in sight, so this might be trouble.) Luna kicks the stick away and Threat clotheslines Heather.

Luna recovers with a slingshot thundrebomb into the chairs but gets only two. Threat then grabs an umbrella (ella, ella, eh eh.) Why? Because, she blocks an attempted power throw by Heather and places the umbrella between Heather’s legs and bodyslams her. This gives the concierge time to sneak up and glitter bomb Threat (literally glitter bombs her.) He hen gives Ash a champagne bottle to clock Luna and we get some dancing and gyrating by the PC on the apron. Threat gets up and PC tries a bodypress. Threat catches and bodyslams him on the floor. Heather and Threat are back in the ring and a Michinoku Driver gets two. However, Ash grabs a garbage can lid to break up the pin. Threat grabs Heather for a bodyslam but Ash breaks It up with a clothesline. Ash tan grabs a bag of thumbtacks? No……actually, wait, no, they’re rhinestones. By Elegance hits and Alabama Jam onto the stones until Luna brakes up the pin. Luna attempts a deadlift back suplex from the second rope, but Heather breaks it up. Luna goes to the top and the Concierge distracts Luna for Maggie Lee to come down and help Ash. Lee adds a kick to Ash’s powerbomb on, well, almost the table. Luna bangs her arm on it but everything else hits the floor. Ash splashes Luna through the table. Heather blasts Threat with a garbage can. Ash climbs to the top, hits the rarified air and Rewholdt, if you could please.
“Play silly games, win silly prizes. Spitfire is now SPlitfire.”

Ash jaws with fans on the ramp and throws a bag of popcorn at some fans, as they celebrate.

Xia Brookside is interviewed and said she answered the question if she is dark and rough enough when she hit her again and again. She said Rosemary wanted this and what happens next is on her, (Expletive…)

Ace Austin update. Ummm…gone (sorry, injured.)

Order Four vs. Rascalz, Hartwell and ????

Order four walks to ring with extra security. Ali is derisively scowling.

Rascalz come out with the faux spray paint entrance and hail from the 419 (thanks, Toledo.) Then we learn that Hart won’t quit as Hartwell makes her way down. But who is the fourth man (sit down Hogan, not you.) Wentz is completely okay with four on three (not scoring high on the Wonderlic Test.)

Suddenly we get the voice and return of….Raj Singh? The crowd is silent. As Singh talks, we get a “What” chant from the crowd (please don’t guys.) Singh tries to play it off and tells the crowd to let him cook (Okay with that comment, I rescind my Anti-what stance.) He calls Ali and ingrateful narcissist for all the things Singh did. Now Singh has “high friends in places” (possible botch but with the Rascalz, eh???)

Schmozz beginning with stereo kicks and stomps for the Great Hands, the Motor City Machine Gun double team sequence (that ends in a drop kick holding a chancery.) Stereo dives for the Rascalz; meanwhile, Ali and Singh fight on the floor and Hartwell and Steelz fight in the corner. Indi blocks a crucifix bomb but Steelz hits a back elbow. Hartwell reverses a charge and eventually hits a side slam. Skyler is tagged but the Rascalz double team before tagging Singh and landing “Whazzup Drop.” Skyler throws Singh to the corner but avoids a charge Singh hits a snake eyes on the top turnbuckle. Hotch is tagged and gets the same. Steelz leaps at Singh but Singh catches her and gently places her on the ground. Ali grabs Singh and Steelz and Ali gets a double back stop and draping DDT to the floor. Skyler gets Singh in the ring but a Great Hands double team backfires; however, a double team rolling neckbreaker and standing sky twister press for Ali on Singh. Ali badmouths, slaps and kicks Singh, but a clothesline breaks up the momentum.

Steelz and Hartwell slug away in the corner. Ali grabs Hartwell by the hair but Steelz comes back and a rollup gets two. Singh – and Ali – get in the ring and Singh hits a cobra clutch slam, Skyler hits slingshot spear as we get a finisher spam which ultimately leads to all six men tied up trying to suplex the other team. Steelz and Hartwell take the time to climb over the scrum an start to slug away at each other. Hartwell hits a cutter that drops everyone (I don’t think that jibes with physics, but magic hand wave, we continue) Steelz rolls into a double footstomp as the Rascalz hit their finisher on the Hands.

The denouement comes as a Rascalz twisting plancha knockout the hands, Steel tags in as Ali and Singh brawl, Ali blacks a backdrop into a rollup with an assist on the ropes. Rascalz knock Ali off the ropes and the Rascalz and Hands start to brawl. Ali back in the ring and lands a hard baseball slide which knocks out Hartwell. Ali goes to the top and hits a 450 Splash on Ali for the win

Ali continues to beat down Singh post-match by suffocating him with the TNA banner on the ring. Steelz tries to break it up but Ali roughly pushes her away.Hmmmm….Steelz walks away and the Hands seem split on how to treat as Hodge seems generally concerned whilst Skyler berates her.

Marellas are back stage with Santino getting his daughter pumped.

Bowflex injury report. Williams and Kazarian are ready to go. Austin….well, you know.

Maclin has a skull fracture but said he is ready for Cardona. He talked about surviving the dog collar match with Young and his military training, ergo why he is bulletproof. Thursday is tag ‘em, bag em and mayhem.

Tessa Blanchard vs. Ariana Grace

Tessa is the undeniable diamond (so, can she scratch Topaz?) Grace comes out in a Miss XT robe and blowing kisses to the crowd (Side note, Grace is tall. Didn’t realize that. She’s taller than Blanchard.)

But before that, here is Robert Stone. Marella does not have a manager’s license; ergo, to the back with him.

After the lock up Tessa does a go behind drop and the foot wipe taunt. Another Lockup and Ariana slooowwly gets the leg and stomps the foot. Tessa takes down Ariana and gets the exaggerated Hogan ear cup gesture. Rewholdt champions Stone’s policies and compares hm to other sheriffs of power, like Steven Seagall and the Sheriff of Nottingham (So Stone is going to cancel Christmas?) Grace is on the apron and headbutts Blanchard. Blanchard kick her in the gut as Grace tried something. Blanchard forearms Grace on the floor, and slams her against a chair. Back in the ring, Blanchard sets up Grace’s calf on the corner and then stomps down on it. On the ropes, Blanchard hits…well, we’ll file it under didn’t’ get all of it (not sure what it was.) Grace tries a comeback but eats a back elbow to the head that puts her back on the ropes as Blanchard hits a sliding kick to the back (probably the initial spot.)

Slingshot plancha on Grace gets two. The two start to slug it out Grace eventually gets a back suplex on Blanchard. Forearm shots land for Grace but Blanchard hits a series of kicks to stop the momentum. Grace recovers to hit a flying back elbow on Blanchard and a big boot gets two=and-a-fraction (they’re not going to. Are they?) Grace gets another big boot to Blanchard in the corner and Grace goes to the second rope. A side swipe kick hits Blanchard, Grace rolls through a leap and attempts a clothesline but Blanchard reverses it to a cutter for two (and a horrible shock face by Tessa.) Blanchard goes to the top but gets slugged down. Grace, after a prayer, gets a superplex (?) for two-and-a-fraction (are they going to do this?) Grace stomps away in the corner and attempts another superplex but Blanchard bites grace to drop her to the ring. Blanchard almost loses her balance on the top turnbuckle so she wisely steps down and lands (after eventually getting Grace in the right position) her buzzsaw DDT. After that, the Magnum off the top rope does the trick.

Post-match, the crowd shows their appreciation and Marella goes to the ring to help his daughter. However, Stone comes down and insists the Marellas pick up the pace because they have a show to continue. AEW should takes notes on effective time management leadership Maybe Stone should head there. Stone emphasizes his points by poking his finger in Marella’s chest and having security escort him out.

Victoria Crawford vs. Masha Slamovich

Stone stays out to introduce Crawford. Crawford hip sways her way down the ring. Slamovich enters with a lack of hip sway. She is adorned in black and neon green (a secret alliance with D-Generation X? Call the hotline.) Can we get Masha moved somewhere else? IT feels weird cheering for someone from Moscow in today’s climate. The crowd is quiet for Crawford (not as quiet as they were for Singh) but picked up whom Slamovich entered.

Hannifan points out the hypocrisy of Stone staying out there whilst Marella had to leave (again, the laws are more stringent in Texas.) Crawford slaps Slamovich to get the action started. Slamovich takes control with a drop toehold, kick and a hard clothesline. Crawford bails. Stone runs interference, preventing a top rope plancha by Slamovich Crawford hits a back kick when Slamovich turned away. Crawford followed it with a northern lights suplex and elbow drop on the floor. Back in the ring, Crawford jaws with the crowd after a series of two counts. Crawford continues the beat down with back kick and a suplex. Slamovich comes off a whip into the corner with a big boot and a series of corner kicks that traps Crawford in the corner. The crowd goes quiet as one guy audibly chants “boring.” Hmmm…A rolling kick gets two for Slamovich who runs the ropes only for Stone to grab Masha’s left for a distraction and a package piledriver by Crawford. Stone grabs Slamovich’s title and slides it to Crawford. The ref sees it and grabs the belt from Crawford. In the fracas, Slamovich inadvertently slugged the referee, giving Crawford a second chance to hit Slamovich with the belt. Crawford attempts a second package piledriver but gets reversed into a Snow Plow. NO count due to the ref being out. Slamovich revives the referee but Crawford attempts a rollup and then an axe kick that misses. Slamovich lands a back fist off the miss and now we get the Requiem for the victory.

Post-match, Slamovich said she wants to be the greatest champion ever and is looking for new challengers, and mentions Lei Ying Lee deserves a shot. Lee walks out (no ill effects from Rosemary’s attack on Thursday when she was unconscious. Sure.) Stone quicky returns and interrupts saying wrestlers don’t make the matches, the Sheriff does. Lee has to earn a title shot (magic hand wave about Crawford.) Lee will have a chance to earn her shot on Thursday.

Replay of the dueling concerts from Tuesday.

Sabu tribute from Rewholdt and video tribute with nice tributes from Dreamer and current wrestlers. Nice touch.

Hardy and slater vs. The Nemeths (Nick and – sing along – Nick Nemeth’s brother)

Hardy grabs headlock on Nick, shoulder block down into a headlock. Hardy announces he’s got him (factually true.) Nemeth knees and back suplexes out of it. But Hardy is right back with a headlock. Slater is tagged in who promptly grabs a headlock, Slater gets a second rope headlock takedown, but Nick Nemeth’s bother comes and it breaks down in Geulph. Nick Nemeth’s brother tags in and Slater gets an arm twist as Hardly adds an elbow drop from the second rope. Hardy works the arm. Slater tagged and a double elbow drop, body press and leg drop combo gets two. Slater with a chop. Running dropkick in the corner gets two. Slate tries a back handspring but nick’s brother trips him up but Slater goes back to the handstand (inexplicably) and Nick’s brother gets a kick to the abdomen, Nick lands a neckbreaker to the floor on Slater. Both Nemeths attack Slater on the floor with Ryan (fine, I’ll use his name) getting some heat with the drunk uncle dance on the floor. Nick in the ring and drags Slater’s forehead on the top rope. Nick gets a sleeper hold. Slater gets to the corner and slips and ducks a series of punches only for Nick to put Slater back on the mat. Ryan gets a running knee on the corner (and nick an eye rake.) More drunk uncle dancing ensues and Nick comes back in the ring. A Rude awakening neckrbeaker connects and Nick goes with a wishbone leg drop for two. Slater fights up but Nick kicks the knee to stop. Ryan tagged in with a series of elbow drops and taunts Hardy. Nick tags and punches away at Slater, and continues taunting as Ryan grabs a chockehold on Slater. Slater fights out of the corner and after failing to crawl to Hardy, gets a back kick on Nemeth to get to the corner. However, Ryan pulls Hardy away. Slater tries to escape but a kick and a DDT from Nick gets two. Slater hits a handspring back elbow on Ryan. Slater makes it to the corner. Hardy gets the hot tag and is a compound on fire, dropping Nick with clothesline and a back elbow.

Hardy slugs away at Hardy and lands multiple turnbuckle slams down the corner on Nick. Slingshot neckbreaker stops Nick as Ryan comes in and gets the turnbuckle treatment. Side effects to both Nemerths ,Hardy attempts the Twist of fate but gets pushed into Ryan. Nick responds with the Famoussef for two. Elevated back suplex/neck breaker gets two. Slater comes in and breaks up the pin. Slater hits a top rope plancha to Ryan. Hardy gets a rollup and the kick, wham, twist of fate gets two. Nick attempts a superkick but a leg lariat by Slater breaks it up. A twist of slate (twist of fate by Slater to a neck breaker by Hardy) gets two. Slater tries a Poetry in Motion but Nick gets pulled from ring. Determined, slater tries a Poetry in Motion over the turnbuckles and lands on the Nemeths on the floor. Twist of fate proper by Hardy followed by a Swanton. Ryan pulls Hardy out. Slater is thrown into the ring steps by Ryan and damages his leg. Back in the ring, a Superkick by Nick is followed by the Danger Zone for the win.

Slammaerisary hype starts.

Marella attempts to console Grace. Marella says he wants to face Stone one on one. However, Grae wants her 16 ounces of cuticle and wants a mixed tag match with Marella and her versus Stone and Blanchard. Marella threatens to break out the cobra.

Kazarian and Williams vs. Elijah and Joe Hendry (clap clap)

Kazarian comes in and jaws with fans. Despite the heel turn, of Williams still over with the crowd (I vainly hoped for Rewholdt’s Booker T impression during Williams’ theme.) Elliah gets a good pop and then the biggest pop the night goes to Hendry.

Williams and Hendry start with the stare down. However, the action starts with Elijah and Kazarian. The two trade armlocks. Kazarian had the upper hand but Elijah got a rope assisted backflip to reverse it. Elijah used the ropes for a jumping kick and forearm smash as Hendry tags, only for Kazarian to run away.) Hendry points at Williams to enter the fracas; however, Kazarian stays in the ring and flips off the fans. Kazarian lands punches and kicks to drop Hendry. Hendry makes it to his feet and drops Kazarian with a shoulder block and hip toss. Kazarian is back and hits an elbow drop to keep the advantage over the Hendry and Ellijay. Elijah is in the ring and Kazarian has had enough and tags Williams. Crowd is still very vocal with their “whop that trick “chant. Wiliams drops Elijah and then throws him into the ropes but Elijah gets a shoulderblock and clothesline to knock down Williams.

Elijah puts Wiliams in the corner, but Wiliams used some adroit boxing skill to slip and weave Elijah’s chops and punches. Williams hits and uppercut to get Elijah bout of the corner. Williams catches Elijah lunging at hm and carries him in a body slam position with one arm; using the other one to flex for Hendry. However, Elijah escapes and tags Hendry, as a preview for Battleground. A vociferous “We believe” chant is cut short as Kazarian tags himself back. Hendry promptly tags Elijah.

Kazarian and Williams start to bicker as Wiliams stays in the ring. Elijah attacks and a double clothesline drops them to the floor. Hendry leaps over the top rope with an almost Brutus Ball to the floor to take out Willams and Kazarian. Kazarian had enough and headed up the ramp. Williams follows and takes further umbrage with his partner. Elijah and Hendry follow them up the ramp. They both fight down to the floor and are Williams and Kazarian are thrown over the barricade to the audience. Hendry and Elijah follow and it’s breaking down in Guelph one more time. They stay out there for a bit exchanging punches and kicks. Elijah threw Williams into the barricade. Both heels are thrown back over the barricade and Hendry and Elijah follow them.

Back in the ring, Elijah performs an amazing spot, he gets hold of Williams and old school top rope walks him around 3 ½ way around the ring. Meanwhile, Hendry has Kazarian in a suplex spot whilst Elijah is making his round. Hendry hit the suplex as Elijah came off the top rope with a forearm on Williams. Elijah went to the ropes but is tripped by Kazarian, giving Williams a chance to hit the Trick Kick. Williams puts the boots to him and then hits a flapjack variation for two. Williams hits the chinlock and eventually tags in Kazarian. Kazarian taunts with the Hendry turn and starts to boot Elijah. Williams tagged in again and hits a neckbreaker. He also slugs Hendry for good measure. Elijah hits a side kick for two as Kazarian tags in and gets a front facelock.

Elijah makes it to the corner but Trick distracts the ref and a tag is waved off. Kazarian throws Elijah to the turnbuckle but a back elbows stops him and a toss powerbomb lands. Both Williams and Hendry are tagged and Hendry starts the endgame. He delivers fallaway slams to Frankie and Trick and then we get the pose. The crowd is fired up as is Hendry but Williams blocks the Standing Ovation. Trick misses a side kick and Hendry hits an Angle Slam for two. Williams, though, reverses a slam to an urinagi for two. Williams goes to the second rope but is caught by Williams and converted to a slam. Kazarian comes in and hits a backstabber, sliding clothesline and slingshot legdrop for two. A chicken wing is blocked and Hendry hits an AA for two. Elijah tagged in but a tombstone is blocked as Frankie tagged Williams. Elijah chops away in the corner but run into a boot. Williams low lows Elijah and hits a Michinoku Driver. A trickshot gets two before Hendry breaks up the pin attempt. All four start to brawl in the ring. Frankie gets a hold of Elijah’s guitar but it’s a swing and a miss and Elijah gets a tombstone for two, before Trick breaks up the attempt. Trick grabs the guitar but the referee tries to take it, missing Elijah’s pin on Kazarian. A trickshot misses for Williams. Hendry is tagged back in and clotheslines Williams out the ring. Now, we get a Standing Ovation does the trick (per se.)

We go off the air with Williams and Hendry in the middle of the ring, glaring with each other.

Keep fighting the good fight.
