Countdown To No Surrender
Sinner & Saint def. Brad Attitude & TW3
The local duo brought plenty of energy, but Sinner & Saint were clearly on another level. After absorbing some early offense, they sealed the deal with a sharp combo kick into a perfectly executed bridging suplex.
Mance Warner Calls Out “Action” Mike Jackson
Mance Warner and Steph De Lander interrupted the legendary Mike Jackson during a segment. Jackson didn’t flinch — but he made it clear that disrespect toward Gia Miller wouldn’t be tolerated. Warner questioned whether Jackson could still go. Jackson answered by accepting a match later in the night.
King’s Speech Leads To Frankie Kazarian vs. Alan Angels
Ryan Nemeth and Alan Angels were scheduled to wrestle, but Frankie Kazarian hijacked the segment for an impromptu edition of “King’s Speech.” Nemeth was fine with it — so long as he still got paid.
Angels refused to leave. Kazarian threatened to drop the mic and punch him — and followed through. Unfortunately for Kaz, Angels fired back.
In his official TNA return, Alan Angels made it clear he wasn’t there to waste time and challenged Kazarian on the spot.
Frankie Kazarian def. Alan Angels
Angels impressed immediately, flying around the ring and even locking in the Wings of Saturn. A missed moonsault proved costly, though. Kazarian capitalized and cinched in the chickenwing submission to force the tap.
Arianna Grace and Stacks vowed backstage that they would leave No Surrender as champions, promising to become wrestling’s ultimate power couple — and to make Santino Marella proud.
No Surrender Main Card Results
Knockouts Battle Royal
Winner: Jody Threat (Earns Knockouts Championship Match)
The Knockouts division brought chaos from the opening bell.
Late in the match, Mila Moore and Victoria Crawford tried to eliminate Jody Threat. Tessa Blanchard crashed into the pile — accidentally eliminating her own allies. Threat narrowly survived by hanging onto the bottom rope with her feet while the field assumed she was gone.
Blanchard thought she had it won after eliminating Mara Sade. Instead, Threat popped back in and sent Blanchard to the floor to secure the victory and a future Knockouts Championship opportunity.
Mike Santana cut a focused promo acknowledging Nic Nemeth and Eddie Edwards’ world title opportunities, warning that he sees “the snakes” lurking. Leon Slater also returned from visa-related absence and shot down the idea of using Option C — especially against Santana.
Oh — and yes, Jelly Roll was in attendance.
TNA International Championship
Trey Miguel def. Stacks (c) to win the title
Stacks had Arianna Grace in his corner — and she didn’t hesitate to get involved. However, the referee caught her slapping Trey Miguel and ejected her from ringside.
From there, Trey turned the tide. A sliding DDT on the floor shifted momentum before he put Stacks away with the Lightning Spiral to capture the International Championship.
Trouble in paradise for the “power couple.”
AJ Francis stormed the stage next, boasting that if Jelly Roll wants to wrestle in TNA, he’ll be waiting. Francis declared himself the real ratings mover and invited himself to commentary for the remainder of the night.
Mance Warner def. “Action” Mike Jackson
The 70+ year-old Jackson stunned the crowd with a suplex on the floor and a suicide dive. Warner recovered by avoiding a crossbody and leveling Jackson with a lariat before finishing him with a lifting DDT.
Post-match, Warner and Steph De Lander showed respect to Jackson — teasing a possible shift in attitude. A brief staredown with AJ Francis followed, but no punches were thrown.
Backstage, Arianna Grace berated Stacks for losing his title, warning him that one more embarrassment could mean the end of their relationship.
Knockouts Tag Team Championship
The Elegance Brand (c) def. Indi Hartwell & Xia Brookside
Mr. Elegance’s interference helped swing control early. Indi Hartwell eventually got the hot tag and cleaned house, but The Elegance Brand weathered the storm.
A brutal corner assault and their bow-and-arrow flying stomp finisher put Hartwell down for the three-count.
Moments later…
Mickie James Returns
Hardcore Country is back.
Mickie James stormed the ring and immediately targeted Ash. The Elegance Brand retreated before Mickie could land her jumping DDT, clearly setting up unfinished business.
Eric Young def. BDE
Before the bell even rang, BDE launched a series of dives onto Young. Once the match officially began, things turned nasty.
There was biting. There were low blows. There was referee distraction.
BDE nearly stole it with a Canadian Destroyer, but Young survived. A shove into the ropes knocked BDE off the top, and Young capitalized with a piledriver for the win.
Jody Threat celebrated her title opportunity until Tessa Blanchard and company interrupted. The trash talk quickly escalated into a singles challenge for Impact.
Knockouts Championship
Arianna Grace def. Lei Ying Lee (c) to win the title
Despite earlier tension, Stacks remained at ringside.
Lei Ying Lee dominated early with strikes and suplexes. Chaos erupted when Dani Luna appeared on stage, demanding the title shot she never received due to visa issues. Security restrained her, but the distraction gave Arianna the opening she needed.
Stacks attempted to assist with the belt. Lee fought him off, but upon returning to the ring, Arianna kicked the ropes into her face. She then struck with the Cobra — yes, Santino’s Cobra — before finishing Lee with a fireman’s carry knee strike to win the Knockouts Championship.
Arianna Grace is now champion.
Santino later confronted Arianna backstage, only for Daria Rae to answer the door. Rae verbally tore into Santino, accusing him of failing both professionally and personally. When Santino reached for the Cobra — it was gone. Rae warned she would fire him if he used it and reminded him of her MMA background.
Order 4 def. The Hardys & The Righteous
Questions about trust between The Hardys and The Righteous lingered throughout the match. At one point, they appeared fully united, even delivering stereo Twists of Fate and Swantons.
Late chaos saw Tasha Steelz throw powder into Dutch’s eyes. Mustafa Ali exploited the confusion, leading to a spinning side slam on Matt Hardy before Ali hit a 450 splash for the win.
Afterward, Elijah appeared with a guitar-case “casket” ahead of his upcoming match with Ali. Ali attacked a decoy, only for Elijah to emerge from inside the case and brawl with him.
Main Event
Mike Santana & Leon Slater def. Nic Nemeth & Eddie Edwards
The looming threat all night was whether Nemeth, Edwards, or Slater would cash in their world title opportunities mid-match, which would have immediately halted the tag bout.
Instead, we got chaos.
Steve Maclin brawled Santana into the crowd. The System interfered. The referee was knocked down. Moose ran in for the save and fought Edwards to the back.
It ultimately came down to Slater vs. Nemeth.
Nemeth connected with a Fameasser and signaled for a superkick, but Slater beat him to the punch with a spinning heel kick. Slater then soared with a swanton 450 splash to secure the victory in a breakout performance.
No cash-ins. No world title shockers.
Just momentum shifting across the TNA landscape heading out of No Surrender.
