TNA Slammiversary 2026 Results

TNA Wrestling presented Slammiversary 2026 on June 28, featuring multiple championship matches, a pair of Hall of Fame announcements, and an emotional tribute to the late Joe Doering. By the end of the night, several titles had changed hands, including the TNA World Championship.

Here are the full results and highlights from the event.

Countdown to Slammiversary Results

Elayna Black def. Mara Sade and Indi Hartwell

The pre-show kicked off with a fast-paced three-way match featuring Elayna Black, Mara Sade, and Indi Hartwell.

Sade nearly secured the victory after planting Black with a powerbomb, but Hartwell interrupted the pin attempt. After a series of counters and high-impact offense from all three competitors, Black capitalized on an opening and connected with a double-arm DDT on Sade to score the win.

Winner: Elayna Black

TNA Introduces New Knockouts Television Championship

Traci Brooks appeared during the Countdown show to unveil a brand-new championship for the Knockouts division.

The newly introduced TNA Knockouts Television Championship will be defended exclusively on TNA Impact, with the inaugural champion set to be crowned through a 16-woman tournament.

Ricky Sosa def. Eric Young

Ricky Sosa continued to build momentum with an upset victory over veteran Eric Young.

Young controlled portions of the match with his experience and power, but Sosa battled back with a series of aerial attacks before finishing Young off with the Blue Thunder Bang.

Winner: Ricky Sosa

TNA Slammiversary 2026 Main Card Results

Before the opening match, TNA paid tribute to the late Joe Doering with a ten-bell salute. Cody Deaner addressed the crowd afterward, honoring Doering’s loyalty, passion, and strength while encouraging the locker room to put on a memorable show in his honor.

TNA X-Division Championship – Ultimate X Match

Cedric Alexander (c) def. Leon Slater, Frankie Kazarian, Mr. Elegance, Fabian Aichner, KC Navarro, and Amazing Red

The annual Ultimate X spectacle delivered another chaotic showcase of athleticism.

Amazing Red dazzled with multiple Code Reds, while Fabian Aichner impressed with a springboard crossbody onto Frankie Kazarian suspended from the cables. Leon Slater appeared moments away from victory after pulling down the championship, but because his feet had not touched the mat, the match remained active.

As Slater dangled with the title, Cedric Alexander seized the opportunity and ripped the championship away to retain.

Winner and Still TNA X-Division Champion: Cedric Alexander

Following the match, Kazarian revealed that Amazing Red will be inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame at Bound For Glory.

Elijah def. AJ Francis

Stipulation: Winner receives rights to Elijah’s music and likeness.

AJ Francis entered with Expressions at ringside and nearly secured the victory after hitting a Styles Clash.

Elijah fought back, neutralized Expressions with a guitar shot, and stunned the crowd with a rope-walking destroyer before earning the pinfall victory.

Winner: Elijah

TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship

Rosemary & Allie def. Elegance Brand (c)

Rosemary and Allie captured tag team gold after overcoming interference from the Elegance Brand entourage.

The finish saw the champions’ offense backfire before Allie connected with a Codebreaker and Rosemary followed up with a Scorpion Death Drop for the victory.

Winners and NEW Knockouts World Tag Team Champions: Rosemary & Allie

TNA International Championship

Mustafa Ali (c) def. Rich Swann and Uhaa Nation

Mustafa Ali’s open challenge turned into a triple threat match after Santino Marella introduced Rich Swann and Uhaa Nation (aka Apollo Crews) as surprise challengers.

Uhaa Nation showcased his strength throughout the contest, while Swann dazzled with his trademark agility. Outside interference once again aided Ali when Agent Zero neutralized Nation at ringside.

Ali capitalized on the chaos and countered a handspring attack from Swann into a backslide pin to retain.

Winner and Still TNA International Champion: Mustafa Ali

No Surrender Match

Moose def. Eddie Edwards

This deeply personal rivalry escalated into one of the most intense matches of the night.

With victory only possible by forcing an opponent’s corner to throw in the towel, both men pushed the limits. The match took a disturbing turn when Eddie Edwards involved Moose’s family, threatening his son after already attacking Moose’s wife.

The distraction backfired, however, as Moose’s son delivered a low blow to Edwards. Moose recovered, unleashed a barrage of spears, and appeared ready to inflict even more punishment before Alisha Edwards finally threw in the towel.

Winner: Moose

After the match, Moose and JDC continued the assault, sending both Eddie and Alisha Edwards crashing through a table.

TNA Knockouts World Championship

Xia Brookside def. Lei Ying Lee (c)

Lei Ying Lee entered as champion but was unable to overcome Xia Brookside’s strategy of targeting her injured leg.

After a competitive battle, Lee found herself in trouble when an exposed turnbuckle came into play. Brookside capitalized, sending Lee into the exposed steel before planting her with a lifting DDT for the victory.

Winner and NEW Knockouts World Champion: Xia Brookside

TNA World Tag Team Championship Ladder Match

The Hardys def. The System (c), The Righteous, and The Great Hands

One of the wildest matches of the evening featured ladders, tables, and even a barbed-wire-covered “Wicked Garden” ladder brought to ringside by The Righteous.

The match featured numerous high-risk moments, including Bear Bronson driving Vincent onto the dangerous ladder and Jeff Hardy hitting a Swanton Bomb onto opponents laid out on a ladder.

After clearing the ring, Matt and Jeff Hardy climbed the ladder and retrieved the titles.

Winners and NEW TNA World Tag Team Champions: The Hardys

Konnan Announced for TNA Hall of Fame

Another Hall of Fame announcement took place during the broadcast, with TNA confirming that wrestling legend Konnan will join the TNA Hall of Fame.

TNA World Championship

Nic Nemeth def. Mike Santana (c)

The main event saw Mike Santana defend the TNA World Championship against Nic Nemeth.

Santana dominated early, but the momentum shifted when Nic used the Call Your Shot trophy as a weapon after Ryan Nemeth’s attempted involvement created a distraction.

The champion battled through significant punishment and blood loss, even kicking out at one after a series of superkicks. However, the damage eventually caught up with him.

As Santana attempted to mount one final comeback, he collapsed from exhaustion and injury. Nemeth immediately capitalized by delivering the Danger Zone to score the decisive pinfall.

Winner and NEW TNA World Champion: Nic Nemeth

Following the match, Nemeth celebrated his championship victory with champagne as Slammiversary came to a close.

Amazing Red Set For First TNA Appearance In 15 Years At Slammiversary 2026

TNA Wrestling has officially announced the return of one of the most influential stars in X-Division history.

The company confirmed that Amazing Red will be part of Slammiversary 2026, marking his first appearance for TNA since 2011. The pay-per-view takes place on June 28 at Agganis Arena in Boston.

Red was originally scheduled to make a one-off return during a TNA event in April 2020, but those plans were canceled when the show was called off due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, more than 15 years after his last TNA appearance, the former X-Division standout is finally set to step back into a TNA ring.

While TNA has not revealed exactly what role Red will play at Slammiversary, speculation is already centered around the Ultimate X match for the X-Division Championship. Cedric Alexander is scheduled to defend the title against Leon Slater and four additional competitors who have yet to be officially announced.

With multiple spots still available, many fans believe Red could be one of the participants in the high-risk contest that helped define his legacy.

Few wrestlers are more closely associated with the early success of the X-Division than Amazing Red. His innovative offense and fast-paced style played a major role in shaping the division during its formative years, influencing an entire generation of wrestlers who followed.

Outside of TNA, Red continued to leave his mark on the industry by founding House of Glory Wrestling, a promotion that has grown into one of the most respected independent organizations in the United States. He remains active both as a performer and as a trainer through the House of Glory wrestling school.

Slammiversary is shaping up to be one of TNA’s biggest events of the year, and the addition of a returning legend like Amazing Red adds another layer of excitement to an already stacked card.

Whether he ends up competing in Ultimate X or finds himself involved in another capacity, fans will finally get to see the former three-time X-Division Champion make his long-awaited return to TNA later this month.

TNA Slammiversary 2026 Set For Afternoon Start To Avoid Direct Clash With AEW Forbidden Door

TNA Wrestling and AEW may both be running major pay-per-view events on June 28, 2026, but fans likely won’t have to choose between the two shows after all.

New details released by Ticketmaster and Boston’s Agganis Arena confirm that this year’s TNA Slammiversary will begin at 3 p.m. ET. The earlier start time creates a significant gap between Slammiversary and AEW x NJPW Forbidden Door, which is scheduled to begin later that evening from the SAP Center in San Jose, California.

Forbidden Door is currently set for a 4 p.m. PT start time, meaning the AEW event won’t begin until 7 p.m. ET — giving viewers several hours between the two pay-per-views.

The scheduling setup appears designed to minimize overlap between the promotions, especially considering both events are among the bigger wrestling shows planned for the summer.

TNA originally announced Slammiversary for Boston before AEW revealed the date and location for Forbidden Door 2026. Reports later surfaced that AEW faced challenges locking down a venue and date for the crossover event. Chicago was reportedly considered as the original host city before the company settled on San Jose.

Had Forbidden Door taken place in Chicago, the time difference between the events would have been much smaller, potentially creating a more direct competition for viewers.

Slammiversary remains one of TNA’s flagship annual events and will serve as the company’s next major pay-per-view offering. Meanwhile, AEW still has Double or Nothing coming up later this month before turning its attention toward Forbidden Door in June.

Report: AEW Catches WWE and TNA Off Guard with Forbidden Door Scheduling Move

AEW has stirred up plenty of buzz this week—and not just with fans. A new report suggests that both WWE and TNA Wrestling were left in the dark when Tony Khan’s company made a major announcement regarding Forbidden Door 2026.

It was revealed on Wednesday that this year’s Forbidden Door event will take place on June 28 at the SAP Center in San Jose, California. The twist? That date just so happens to clash directly with TNA’s Slammiversary, which is set for the same night in Boston, Massachusetts.

According to the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, neither WWE nor TNA had any prior warning about AEW’s plans. Both promotions reportedly learned about the scheduling decision at the same time as the public, making the move feel like a surprise shot across the bow.

For TNA, the timing is especially significant. Slammiversary is widely considered one of the promotion’s biggest shows of the year, second only to its flagship events. Naturally, running head-to-head with AEW—particularly on a card as loaded as Forbidden Door—is far from ideal.

Some may have expected WWE to step in and bolster TNA’s lineup in response, especially given their growing working relationship. However, the report indicates WWE was just as blindsided and had no involvement in the decision or any immediate counter-strategy.

Meanwhile, AEW is aiming to make this year’s Forbidden Door the biggest yet. The 2026 edition won’t just feature talent from AEW and NJPW—it’s also set to include stars from CMLL and STARDOM, turning the event into a massive multi-promotional showcase.

Whether intentional or not, AEW has thrown a major wrinkle into the summer wrestling calendar—and all eyes will be on how the competition responds.

Team 3D and The Hardys to Battle One More Time at Bound For Glory

The Hardys have reclaimed their spot atop the TNA tag team ranks, walking out of Slammiversary 2025 as the new World Tag Team Champions. In a wild four-way ladder match, Matt and Jeff toppled The Rascalz, FIR$T CLA$$, and the reigning champs, The Nemeths — but it was how they won that had fans buzzing.

With every ladder at ringside destroyed in the chaos, Jeff Hardy revealed a backup plan straight out of his unpredictable playbook: a rope ladder lowered from the rafters. Jeff climbed the hanging ladder and snatched the titles, adding yet another chapter to The Hardys’ already legendary tag team legacy.

But the celebration didn’t last long. Moments after the win, Bully Ray made a surprise return to TNA, not only giving the brothers their due — but throwing down a challenge. Bully called for one more showdown: The Hardys vs. Team 3D at Bound For Glory, set for October 12th.

The Hardys didn’t hesitate. The match is on — two of the most iconic teams in wrestling history will collide once again on TNA’s biggest stage of the year.

AJ Styles Makes Return to TNA at Slammiversary — “The Phenomenal One” Comes Home

In one of the most unforgettable moments of TNA Slammiversary, AJ Styles made his long-awaited return to TNA Wrestling, sending the crowd into an absolute frenzy.

Walking out to his classic “Get Ready to Fly” entrance theme, Styles soaked in the reaction before taking the mic. Reflecting on his storied career, he admitted it’s been a long journey—but emphasized that he’s finally back where it all began.

Styles didn’t shy away from addressing the doubts that swirled over the years about whether he’d ever step into a TNA ring again. But as he put it, now that he’s here, the lights shine a little brighter—and the talent roster has never looked stronger.

One star in particular earned Styles’ praise: Leon Slater. After Slater’s milestone victory over Moose to become the youngest X-Division Champion in TNA history, Styles gave him a heartfelt nod, saying Slater didn’t just earn the title—he deserved it.

AJ also paid tribute to the names that built TNA from the ground up, mentioning legends like Samoa Joe, Christopher Daniels, Chris Sabin, Jerry Lynn, Austin Aries, Amazing Red, and others who helped lay the foundation for the company’s legacy.

But as Styles made clear, tonight belonged to Leon Slater. The young champion may have made his name at Slammiversary—but now, Styles challenged him to build his legacy as the face and future of TNA.

TNA Slammiversary 7/20/2025 (Results), AJ Styles & Bully Ray Return

Countdown to Slammiversary

The action kicked off with championship gold on the line as The IInspiration challenged The Elegance Brand for the Knockouts World Tag Team Titles. Ash and Heather By Elegance controlled much of the match, isolating Jessie McKay. After Cassie Lee fired up on a hot tag, it looked like the challengers had a chance—but a sneaky ringside torch shot from M By Elegance gave Ash the opening to hit Rarified Air for the win.
Winners and still Knockouts World Tag Team Champions: The Elegance Brand

Eric Young and The Northern Armory made an unscheduled appearance, running down New York—until a surprise opponent, The Home Town Man, stepped up. Despite interference from Judas Icarus and Travis Williams, The Home Town Man pulled off a shocking upset, rolling up Young for the three-count.
Winner: The Home Town Man

In a wild six-man tag, TNA International Champion Steve Maclin teamed with Jake Something and Mance Warner to face Real 1, Zilla Fatu, and Josh Bishop. The match was total chaos, ending with Real 1 pinning Something after Eat Defeat, giving Fourth Rope a big win over the TNA crew.
Winners: Real 1, Zilla Fatu & Josh Bishop

Slammiversary Main Card Highlights

Cedric Alexander and Mustafa Ali reignited their rivalry in a high-paced opener. With help from Ali’s Order 4 allies, including a key DDT from Skyler and interference from Tasha Steelz, Ali outlasted Alexander after hitting a second 450 Splash for the win.
Winner: Mustafa Ali

Matt Cardona teamed with The System (Eddie Edwards, Brian Myers, and JDC) to battle NXT’s DarkState in a chaotic eight-man tag. After DarkState nearly pulled off an upset, The System rallied with a string of finishers, capped off by Cardona’s Radio Silence and Edwards’ Boston Knee Party for the victory.
Winners: The System & Matt Cardona

In a heated singles clash, Indi Hartwell took on Tessa Blanchard. Blanchard targeted Hartwell’s knee, but Indi fought back, sealing the win with a modified Full Nelson Slam. Post-match, Blanchard snapped—attacking Hartwell during an interview and even assaulting Gia Miller, leading to Santino Marella ejecting her from the building.
Winner: Indi Hartwell

Eric Young is furious with The Northern Armory after falling to The Home Town Man earlier tonight.

The Knockouts Title vs. Title match saw Masha Slamovich and NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne face off in a chaotic encounter. Despite heavy interference from both camps, Jayne took advantage of a referee bump and hit Rolling Encore on Slamovich to become the new Knockouts World Champion.
Winner and NEW TNA Knockouts World Champion: Jacy Jayne

Leon Slater delivered the biggest win of his career, dethroning Moose in a hard-fought X-Division Title clash. In a back-and-forth battle filled with big counters and jaw-dropping moves, Slater finally hit a Swanton 450 to make history as the youngest X-Division Champion ever.
Winner and NEW X-Division Champion: Leon Slater

In a tremendous sign of respect, Moose puts the X-Division Title around the waist of Leon Slater.

After the match, “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles makes his long-awaited return to TNA Wrestling!

Styles recognizes TNA as the place where AJ Styles built his name and congratulates Slater on becoming the youngest X-Division Champion of all time.

The TNA World Tag Team Titles were up for grabs in a wild four-way ladder match. The Hardys, Rascalz, FIR$T CLA$$, and The Nemeths tore the house down with high-risk stunts—including Jeff Hardy’s signature Swanton Bombs and AJ Francis’ massive moonsault. In the end, The Hardys claimed the gold, becoming four-time TNA Tag Champions.
Winners and NEW TNA World Tag Team Champions: The Hardys

After the match, Bully Ray makes his shocking return to TNA Wrestling, congratulating The Hardys on becoming four-time TNA World Tag Team Champions. Bully lays out the challenge for this October at Bound For Glory, one more match between two of the greatest tag teams of all time, The Hardys and Team 3D!

Director of Authority Santino Marella reveals that Tessa Blanchard is indefinitely suspended following her actions towards Gia Miller earlier tonight.

Main Event — TNA World Championship Triple Threat
Trick Williams defended the TNA World Title against Joe Hendry and Mike Santana in a fast-paced three-way. Hendry and Santana took turns controlling the action, with Frankie Kazarian even getting involved. Just when it seemed Santana had it won, Trick swooped in, tossing Santana out of the ring and stealing the pin on Hendry to retain his title.
Winner and still TNA World Champion: Trick Williams

Trick celebrates his victory as TNA Slammiversary comes to an end.

Enzo Amore Hints at TNA Slammiversary Appearance And He Might Be Coming With A Anoa’i Family Member

Enzo Amore may have been one of WWE’s most polarizing figures, but that hasn’t stopped him from staying in the spotlight. Now going by “NZo” or “Real1” on the independent scene, the former WWE Cruiserweight Champion has been making waves — and it looks like those waves might be crashing straight into TNA Wrestling.

In a recent promo aired through Fourth Rope, the indie promotion where Amore currently reigns as Flyweight Champion, the outspoken star took direct aim at TNA ahead of this weekend’s Slammiversary event. In classic Enzo fashion, the promo blurred the lines between storyline and shoot, as he called out TNA for what he called “blatant disrespect.”

“I had to run through half of TNA to become this fly,” Amore said, hinting at past encounters with TNA talent. He even took a shot at Joe Hendry, claiming he’d “eat up Joe Hendry and spit him out,” before brushing off any suggestion that he’s “all in” with TNA. According to him, the chip on his shoulder outweighs anyone on their roster.

But perhaps the biggest talking point? Amore strongly hinted that he won’t be coming to Slammiversary alone.

“I think I’ll bring a Bishop. I know some good guys… some Good Brothers… I know plenty of people, okay?” Amore teased, suggesting that fans might see a few surprises at the pay-per-view. One name that stood out was Zilla Fatu, the Fourth Rope Heavyweight Champion and a member of the legendary Anoa’i family — the same bloodline behind Roman Reigns, The Usos, and Solo Sikoa.

With references to both known stars and possible alliances, Amore left things wide open, even joking that security would be more likely to back him up if he jumped the guardrail.

Slammiversary just got a whole lot more unpredictable — and if Enzo Amore has his way, it may also get a little more chaotic.

AJ Styles Confirmed For TNA Slammiversary This Sunday

The rumors swirling around TNA Wrestling’s Slammiversary have been officially put to rest — and they were, in a word, Phenomenal.

After days of cryptic teases and not-so-subtle hints, TNA Wrestling President Carlos Silva confirmed that “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles will make an appearance at Slammiversary this Sunday, July 20th, live from UBS Arena in Elmont, New York.

Styles, a cornerstone of TNA’s golden era and one of the promotion’s most celebrated icons, hasn’t been part of the company since departing over a decade ago. Now, his surprise return is shaping up to be the centerpiece of what’s already being billed as TNA’s biggest event in recent memory. Silva, who had been fueling speculation with social media teasers, made the news official — and even revealed that the arena stage setup is being adjusted to allow for a larger crowd, further signaling the magnitude of this year’s Slammiversary.

What exactly AJ will be doing on the show remains a mystery. Silva hasn’t dropped any details about Styles’ role, whether it’s a match, a special appearance, or something completely unexpected. But with Slammiversary stacking up as a major crossover event, the possibilities seem endless.

The card itself is loaded with high-stakes matchups, headlined by a triple threat for the TNA World Championship. NXT’s Trick Williams defends against former TNA World Champion Joe Hendry and New York’s own Mike Santana. Meanwhile, in a rare inter-promotional clash, NXT Women’s Champion Jacy Jayne faces off with TNA Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich — a winner-takes-all bout where one woman will leave as a double champion.

Between the blockbuster title matches and AJ Styles’ shocking involvement, this year’s Slammiversary isn’t just shaping up to be a must-watch — it could be a turning point in TNA’s modern resurgence.
