TNA Bound for Glory 2024 Results

Jade Chung introduced singer Ilona to perform the National Anthem, kicking off the event.

An intro video played, setting the stage for the night’s action.

Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt welcomed viewers from the commentary desk, with Jade Chung handling ring announcing duties. The show moved right into the action as the competitors made their way to the ring for the X Division Championship match.

TNA X-Division Championship Match: Mike Bailey vs. El Hijo Del Vikingo

The crowd erupted with “This is awesome” chants as Bailey and Vikingo took a moment to acknowledge the atmosphere, sharing a respectful handshake. They squared off, striking fighting stances before diving into a rapid martial arts exchange.

The action transitioned into smooth chain wrestling, with both men trading rollups and counters. Neither could gain the upper hand, leading to a stalemate after they blasted each other with Shotgun Dropkicks.

Vikingo was the first to break through, sending Bailey to the outside with a slick huracanrana. He wasted no time, launching himself through the ropes with a lightning-quick Suicide Dive, crashing into Bailey and igniting the crowd once again.

Vikingo appeared to tweak his leg, and Tom Hannifan noted that it was the same injured leg that had sidelined him for months. Sensing an opportunity, Mike Bailey locked in an Indian Deathlock on the injured leg, but Vikingo managed to reach the ropes for a break. Bailey followed with a Mafia Kick and a Vader Bomb Meteora, earning a nearfall. Bailey then shifted into a TKD fighting pose, targeting Vikingo with a flurry of Tae Kwon Do kicks.

Vikingo created space with a Superkick, though he continued to sell his injured knee. With impressive agility, Vikingo executed a kick flip off Bailey and evaded a strike with a Tiger Feint. He then blasted Bailey with a Slingshot Missile Dropkick. Both men avoided each other’s Baseball Slides, and Vikingo showed off his balance with a tightrope walk on the barricade, seamlessly transitioning into an Old School Dragonrana.

As the crowd buzzed, Bailey recovered and answered with a corkscrew Asai Moonsault to the outside. Back in the ring, Bailey went for a Shooting Star Press, but Vikingo dodged. Bailey adjusted mid-match and hit the Green Tea Plunge (Spanish Fly) for a close two-count.

Vikingo fought back with a Kick and locked in a Triangle Hold on Bailey. As Bailey attempted to escape, Vikingo surprised him with a Monkey Flip. Bailey retaliated by hitting a Dragon Screw on Vikingo’s injured knee, followed by a bodyslam. He then connected with a Shooting Star Press, but Vikingo kicked out just in time.

Bailey shifted gears, feinting strikes with Chamber Thrust Kicks before going for a Tornado Kick. Vikingo countered with a slick Trouble in Paradise Spin Kick, and both men narrowly avoided being counted out. Back on their feet, they exchanged hard-hitting chest slaps, showing their fighting spirit. At the ten-minute mark, Bailey showed a darker side by faking a slap and kicking Vikingo’s injured leg. He then struck a Karate Kid pose and delivered a Crane Kick.

Bailey followed up by landing his signature Ultima Weapon, but Vikingo shocked everyone by kicking out. Bailey went for another finisher, but Vikingo countered into a devastating Canadian Destroyer. Vikingo then hit Bailey with a corner Meteora, sending Bailey to the outside. Without missing a beat, Vikingo performed a tightrope walk on the ropes and nailed a breathtaking Corkscrew Moonsault to the floor.

Back in the ring, Bailey knocked Vikingo off the apron with a Gamengiri. Vikingo avoided a standing Ultima Weapon and climbed to the top rope, pulling off an insane Panama Sunrise from the ring post. As Bailey barely recovered, Vikingo dragged him to the top rope, looking to finish him off. But Bailey turned the tables, hitting a spectacular Meteorain (Superplex) from the top rope to secure the victory.

Winner: Mike Bailey defeated El Hijo Del Vikingo via pinfall in 14:55 to retain the TNA X Division Championship.

TNA Knockouts Tag Team Championship Match: Spitfire vs. Wendy Choo & Rosemary

Spitfire used quick tags to isolate Rosemary on their side of the ring. Choo cushioned Rosemary with her body pillow after an Irish Whip into the corner, but Threat grabbed the pillow and gave it a German Suplex, drawing a chuckle from the crowd. Choo tagged in and targeted Threat with kicks in the corner, distracting the referee so Rosemary could hold the Upside Down submission past the five-count.

Hannifan mentioned Luna had been away from Threat for a few weeks. Threat turned the tide with a clothesline to Choo. Both teams tagged out, and Luna entered with momentum, hitting Rosemary with a bodyslam and a dropkick, followed by a Mafia Kick to knock down Choo. Luna then connected with a missile dropkick and reversed a Jackknife attempt into a Powerbomb for a nearfall, followed by a Suicide Dive onto Rosemary.

At ringside, Choo dominated Threat, teaming with Rosemary to hit a double DDT on the floor. Threat responded with a top-rope cannonball, wiping out both opponents. She rolled Rosemary and Luna back into the ring to avoid the count-out, but Choo tripped Threat off the apron to block her tag attempt. Rosemary hit Luna with a spear and had the visual pin but chose to break it herself, tagging Choo back in.

Luna recovered and delivered a powerful double Powerbomb to both Choo and Rosemary. Threat re-entered, unleashing chops and kicks on both opponents, but Choo caught her with a Codebreaker. A miscommunication saw Rosemary run into Choo, allowing Threat to stack them on the second rope and nail a Meteora followed by a Double German Suplex. Luna finished things with an assisted Powerbomb on Rosemary to secure the victory.

Spitfire defeated Rosemary and Dani Luna retain the TNA Knockouts Tag Team Titles.

After the match, as Wendy Choo turned her back, Rosemary struck with a Spear, leaving her laid out. Hannifan then directed viewers to a replay of the Call Your Shot match’s finish, showcasing Frankie Kazarian’s victory.

Gia Miller approached Frankie Kazarian for an interview, but Kazarian dismissed her, saying he was studying an Earl Hebner book to prepare for the upcoming world title match. He proudly boasted about his Call Your Shot trophy win and confidently claimed that tonight, he would raise the hand of the “real TNA Champion.”

The broadcast then cut to earlier footage of Joe Hendry and Nic Nemeth arriving at the arena.

Steve Maclin made his entrance with new music, but before reaching the ring, he ambushed Josh Alexander on the entrance ramp. Maclin brutalized Alexander at ringside, with Hannifan noting that Icarus and Williams couldn’t attend the event due to “travel issues.”

Josh Alexander vs. Steve Maclin

Maclin started strong, controlling the action early. However, Alexander fought back and managed to lock in a ring-post-assisted Figure Four, drawing a pop from the crowd. Once both men were inside the ring, the bell officially rang to begin the match.

Maclin mounted a brief comeback, but Alexander quickly shut it down with a Backbreaker Bomb for a close nearfall. The crowd broke into a “walking wiener” chant, throwing Maclin off his game. Alexander capitalized by delivering a series of chained German Suplexes, reminiscent of Kurt Angle’s signature style, further wearing Maclin down.

Maclin turned the tide with a standing switch, taking Alexander to Suplex City with a relentless series of about 10 chained German Suplexes. Both men, visibly fatigued, got to their knees and exchanged forearms. Maclin landed a stiff back elbow and hung Alexander in the Tree of Woe. However, Josh executed a sit-up just in time to dodge Maclin’s spear, then hit a devastating World’s Strongest Slam on the apron, followed by his signature crossbody dive to ringside.

The crowd reignited the “walking wiener” chant, frustrating Maclin. When Alexander attempted a C4 Spike, Maclin dropped his weight to block it and countered with an Angle Slam. Maclin followed with a Superplex, seamlessly chaining it into a Death Valley Driver for a close nearfall.

Alexander hoisted Maclin into a fireman’s carry, but Maclin’s leg hit the referee—REF BUMP! Seizing the moment, Alexander delivered a low blow to Maclin, prompting a loud “wiener” chant from the crowd. Maclin responded by zip-tying Alexander’s hands, earning a “this is kinky” chant from the amused audience.

The referee confronted Alexander, warning that the zip tie was illegal. As the official tried to release him, Maclin used his head to trip Alexander back into the Tree of Woe and hit him with a spear. Still zip-tied, Maclin launched a Suicide Dive to the outside, but Alexander fought back before Maclin could be freed by the ref.

Even with the zip tie still in place, Maclin nailed a brutal Knee Plus for another nearfall. Alexander rallied, delivering a Tombstone Piledriver, but Maclin shockingly kicked out at two. Maclin countered a C4 attempt with a backdrop, and despite absorbing a German Suplex, he powered through and headbutted Alexander.

Alexander locked Maclin in an ankle lock, but with Maclin’s hands bound, he couldn’t tap—leading the crowd to chant, “he can’t tap!” Rehwoldt pointed out that the zip ties prevented Maclin from reaching the ropes. Unable to escape, Maclin eventually passed out.

Winner: Josh Alexander defeated Steve Maclin via referee stoppage.

After the bell, Alexander placed his foot on the unconscious Maclin’s neck, basking in the moment and taunting the crowd with his dominance.

Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt returned on commentary, building excitement for the upcoming Knockouts Title match. They then introduced a hype package for the PCO vs. Matt Cardona showdown.

TNA Digital Media Championship & International Heavyweight Championship Monsters Ball Match: PCO vs. Matt Cardona

PCO made his entrance sporting a Ghostbusters-themed jumpsuit, with his name cleverly replacing the ghost on the iconic logo. Carrying both his championship belts, PCO looked ready for destruction. Hannifan highlighted that PCO remains undefeated in Monster’s Ball matches, though he admitted it’s hard not to still associate the match with Abyss, who made it famous.

Matt Cardona ambushed PCO at ringside, slamming him into the steel steps. Gloating into the camera, Cardona taunted, hoping Steph De Lander was watching what he was doing to her “husband.” PCO briefly fought back, but Cardona regained control with a brutal backdrop onto the steel steps. He then set a house door in the corner, but PCO rallied and backdropped Cardona through it.

PCO attempted a Suicide Dive, but Cardona intercepted mid-air with a trash can shot. Cardona followed up by attacking PCO’s back with the trash can, while Hannifan gave a nod to Abyss (a.k.a. Joseph Park) for inventing this brutal match. Cardona brought in another door and some chairs, pausing to complain to the camera about not being featured on the collectible front-row chairs. He then constructed a painful structure using the door and chairs, placing some chairs sideways for maximum impact.

PCO tried to regain momentum with ten punches in the corner, but Cardona countered, slamming him with a Uranage through the door-and-chair setup. Pulling out a black bag, Cardona poured thumbtacks onto the mat and shoved a handful into PCO’s face and mouth, following up with a Broski Boot. However, PCO shockingly no-sold multiple DDTs onto the tacks. Cardona, frustrated, shoved tacks into PCO’s face one by one, but PCO powered to his feet.

Cardona hit PCO with the Ruff Ryder Leg Lariat, but PCO kicked out for a close nearfall. Undeterred, Cardona fetched another door from under the ring, but PCO tackled him through it, then shattered the door over Cardona’s back. Cardona still managed to kick out at two. PCO grabbed his own black bag filled with thumbtacks and dumped them onto the mat.

Cardona fought back with a low blow and retrieved a barbed wire baseball bat, painted green. Rehwoldt suggested it was a Slimer reference from Ghostbusters. Cardona struck PCO with the bat and tried to rake it across his head, but PCO recovered and slammed Cardona onto the tacks. PCO sealed the victory with a devastating PCO-Sault, pinning Cardona.

PCO defeated Matt Cardona via pinfall to retain the TNA Digital Media Championship and the International Wrestling Championship.

Mike Santana vs. Moose

The match kicked off with dueling chants, though Santana had most of the crowd’s support. Moose slipped to ringside, but Santana chased him down, unloading chops. Santana whipped Moose into the guardrail with such force it shifted. At ringside, Santana followed up with a stiff Mafia Kick. Moose recovered back inside the ring, landing a front kick to stop Santana’s momentum. Santana then dumped Moose outside and went for a Suicide Dive, but JDC stepped in to take the hit for Moose. Seizing the opportunity, Moose powerbombed Santana into the apron.

JDC added to the assault, throwing Santana into the steel steps while the referee was distracted. Moose tossed Santana into the turnbuckle to buy himself some breathing room. Santana escaped a powerbomb attempt and sent Moose into the corner, but Moose caught him mid-cannonball and delivered a brutal Jackknife Powerbomb for a close nearfall. The crowd responded with loud “F*ck The System” chants as Moose followed up with a chokeslam.

Hannifan mentioned that Moose had tied with several TNA legends for the second-most Bound for Glory appearances at 10, just behind Chris Sabin and Rhino. Santana fought back, showing defiance and rallying with rapid strikes. Moose blocked an attempt at Santana’s Spin the Block, but Santana fired back with a rolling cutter, forcing Moose to roll out of the ring. Santana then soared with a top-rope crossbody, taking out both Moose and JDC at ringside. When a fan heckled Santana, he snapped, shouting, “I ain’t no f*ckin’ dog!”

Santana countered a powerbomb into a rana, gaining momentum with an Asai Moonsault, TKO, and a Claymore for another nearfall. Moose managed to block Spin the Block again, but Santana retaliated with a Death Valley Driver into the turnbuckle, followed by a picture-perfect 450 Splash, earning a close nearfall. Hannifan noted how the 450 reminded him of Santana’s LAX days, praising Santana’s transformation into a more heavyweight-style wrestler despite his tag team background.

Moose responded with a messy Superplex that still got a nearfall, with Hannifan pointing out Moose’s struggle to hit his signature Go To Hell Sky High. Another “Fck The System” chant echoed through the crowd as the two traded strikes on the apron. Santana, refusing to back down, yelled “Fck you!” and nailed Moose with a Yakuza Kick, prompting fans to chant, “What he said!”

Moose ended the brutal exchange with a devastating powerbomb on the apron before rolling back into the ring, looking to capitalize. Santana barely beat the referee’s ten count, rolling back into the ring just in time. Meanwhile, JDC entered with a chain, drawing the referee’s attention as he tried to get JDC out of the ring. JDC wrapped the chain around his fist, but Santana dodged the punch and countered with Spin the Block on JDC.

Before Santana could celebrate, Moose blindsided him with a thunderous Spear. The crowd erupted as Santana narrowly kicked out at two, delivering a thrilling false finish. Moose tried for another Spear, but Santana countered with a quick roll-up for a nearfall. Seizing the moment, Santana landed Spin the Block on Moose, securing the hard-fought victory.

Mike Santana defeated Moose via pinfall.

Santana stood tall, posing triumphantly over the fallen Moose. Rehwoldt then transitioned the broadcast to the hype package for the upcoming match between Jordynne Grace and Masha Slamovich.

TNA Knockouts Championship Match: Jordynne Grace vs. Masha Slamovich

The entrances for the Knockouts Championship match aired, with Masha Slamovich debuting new entrance music that gave her a fresh edge. Jade Chung handled the formal in-ring introductions, adding to the championship atmosphere.

Hannifan highlighted an impressive stat: Jordynne Grace currently holds the best win-loss record in TNA for 2024, solidifying her dominance in the division heading into this high-stakes showdown.

The match began evenly, with both women initially at a stalemate. Jordynne Grace took control during a Test of Strength, overpowering Masha Slamovich. Grace followed up with a powerful shoulder tackle and hit Ataxia to assert her dominance early.

Masha responded by draping Grace on the ropes and landing a sharp front kick, followed by a hooking superkick that staggered Grace. She then launched herself through the ropes with a corkscrew Suicide Dive. However, when Masha attempted another draping front kick, Grace blocked it and countered with a kick to Masha’s leg.

Grace continued her assault, executing a Triangle Double Stomp on the apron. She then slammed Masha against the ring post multiple times, showing no mercy. Back in the ring, Grace hit a rolling Death Valley Driver and shifted her strategy to target Masha’s injured knee with precise, methodical offense.

Despite the damage, Masha fought back, using her good leg to unleash a flurry of kicks that earned her a close nearfall, keeping the crowd on edge as the battle raged on.

Jordynne Grace whipped Masha Slamovich into the corner and followed up with a thunderous World’s Strongest Slam. Grace attempted a Vader Bomb, but Masha dodged at the last second. Both women battled to the top rope, with Grace holding onto the ropes to block a powerbomb. Masha climbed back up and connected with a Frankensteiner, setting the crowd on fire. She followed with her signature Snow Plow, but Grace kicked out for a thrilling false finish.

Masha attacked Grace’s back with brutal overhead shots, but Grace targeted Masha’s injured leg to regain control. Grace then hit a springboard crossbody, earning a nearfall. Masha fought back with kicks from her healthy leg, landing a Spinning Heel Kick for another close nearfall. A passionate “this is wrestling” chant erupted from the crowd.

Grace countered Masha’s next move with a Tombstone German Suplex and followed with Kryptonite Crush (Air Raid Crash), nearly securing the victory. Hannifan remarked that ECW legend Jerry Lynn would be proud. Masha, however, fought her way back, dragging Grace onto the apron and attempting a suplex to the floor. Grace blocked it by holding the top rope, but Masha escaped a Kinniku Buster attempt and delivered a series of knee strikes. Masha then stunned the crowd with a Burning Hammer, but Grace still kicked out, igniting a loud “TNA” chant.

Masha pressed on with a barrage of right hands, no-selling a stiff backfist from Grace. She unleashed a flurry of Savate Kicks, but Grace countered the last one into a seamless Kinniku Buster followed by the Grace Driver for a heart-stopping nearfall. Hannifan reminded the audience that no one had kicked out of Grace’s finisher in 2024—until now.

Grace transitioned into a Stretch Muffler submission, but Masha reached the bottom rope to force a break. Determined to finish the match, Grace dragged Masha to the top rope. However, Masha escaped Grace’s attempted top-rope Grace Driver and retaliated with a devastating Super Snow Plow followed by a Piledriver for the clean victory.

Masha Slamovich defeated Jordynne Grace via pinfall to become the new TNA Knockouts Champion.

After the match, an emotional Masha Slamovich helped Jordynne Grace to her feet and embraced her with a heartfelt hug, showing mutual respect. Hannifan then transitioned to the hype package for the next bout: Nic Nemeth vs. Joe Hendry.

The broadcast featured a Tale of the Tape graphic, detailing the stats and key matchups between Hendry and Nemeth.

Guest referee Frankie Kazarian made his entrance, wearing a long-sleeved referee shirt and a red scarf draped over his shoulders. He proudly carried his Call Your Shot Trophy with him, showcasing it to the crowd.

Backstage at the Gorilla Position, Ace Steel gave Joe Hendry an intense pep talk, reminding him to “make the world believe.” From there, the show cut to a cinematic music video featuring a mashup of the instrumentals from Eminem’s Lose Yourself and Joe Hendry’s entrance theme, adding a larger-than-life feel to the moment.

TNA World Heavyweight Championship Match: Nic Nemeth vs. Joe Hendry

As the camera returned to the arena, a man stood with his back to the crowd, wearing overalls and holding a chainsaw, paying homage to Eminem. Then it echoed through the arena: “Say his name, and he appears!” The crowd erupted into chants: “We believe!” Clap, clap! Hendry threw off the overalls and made his grand entrance, basking in the energy of the crowd.

The scene then shifted back to the Gorilla Position, following Nic Nemeth as he prepared for the match. TNA Champion Nemeth confidently walked to the ring, radiating the swagger of a champion. Jade Chung added the finishing touch, delivering the formal in-ring introductions, setting the stage for this highly anticipated showdown.

The crowd hit Kazarian with “Frankie sucks” chants and blasted Nemeth with loud “f*ck Ohio” chants. Hendry countered an early armdrag with a kip-up and followed with wrist holds on Nemeth. The crowd sang Hendry’s theme loudly, while Nemeth hit a dropkick and did his hip wiggle dance, prompting more “f*ck Ohio” chants. Hendry then deadlifted Nemeth for a delayed vertical suplex, but Nemeth recovered with a neckbreaker.

Nemeth hit ten elbow drops for a nearfall and tried for a DDT, but Hendry countered into a Death Valley Driver. Hannifan noted Hendry’s incredible strength, calling him the strongest pound-for-pound wrestler in TNA. Hendry followed up with punches, a Fallaway Slam, and another kip-up, rallying the crowd with stomp-stomp-clap. Nemeth reversed the Standing Ovation into a sleeper hold, but Hendry escaped and hit a powerbomb for a close nearfall.

Nemeth broke free from an ankle lock and hit a back elbow. Both wrestlers went to the top, where Hendry nailed a Super Fallaway Slam. Kazarian, acting as referee, paused his count to grab his trophy, but Hendry snatched it away and told him to focus on the match. Kazarian snapped, shouting, “Don’t touch my trophy, you mark!” Nemeth took advantage with a Fame Asser, but Hendry kicked out at two despite Kazarian’s fast count.

Hendry dodged a DDT and lifted Nemeth for an Attitude Adjustment, earning another nearfall. The two traded punches until Hendry hit a pump kick, sending Nemeth to the apron. They brawled there until Hendry countered a superkick with a cutter, leaving both men down. Kazarian stopped his count again, calling for help.

Suddenly, JBL stormed in from the crowd, hitting Kazarian with a Clothesline from Hell. He then turned to Hendry and laid him out with another Clothesline. Ryan Nemeth also ate a Clothesline from JBL before Nic Nemeth hit Hendry with the Danger Zone (Zig Zag). A new ref ran in late, and Hendry managed to kick out at two.

Hendry reversed Sweet Chin Music, but Nemeth countered the Standing Ovation. Nemeth connected with a superkick followed by another Danger Zone, securing the win.

Nic Nemeth defeated Joe Hendry via pinfall to retain the TNA World Heavyweight Championship.

Hannifan gave Nemeth the benefit of the doubt, suggesting he might not have seen JBL’s interference. After the match, Nic helped his brother Ryan to his feet before the show transitioned to highlights from the TNA Hall of Fame ceremony earlier in the night.

The show cut backstage to TNA Director of Authority Santino Marella, who congratulated Rhino and the late Bob Ryder on their induction into the TNA Hall of Fame. It then transitioned to a promo for TNA’s next PPV, Genesis.

Back in the ring, the Hardys hit Bey with the Plot Twist (an assisted Twist of Fate). As the Hardys climbed the ladder for the belts, Ace knocked it down, sending them crashing. ABC then swarmed both Hardys with a flurry of kicks. Jeff used a small ladder as a battering ram to take out both members of ABC. However, ABC quickly recovered and suplexed Jeff onto a flat ladder. As Bey noticed another flat ladder, Ace began climbing for the belts, but Jeff punched Bey, causing Ace to tumble down. Matt set up a regular ladder and threaded the flat ladder through it, creating a bridge between the ropes.

ABC pulled the Hardys off the ladders, but Matt slammed Ace into the corner, shouting “Delete!” Matt and Bey climbed the ladder and exchanged punches at the top.

Meanwhile, Ace and Jeff each carried chairs onto the bridge. Jeff blasted Bey with a chair, while Ace struck Matt, sending both men crashing to the mat. Jeff and Ace then swung their chairs at each other, knocking them away. A heated brawl erupted between Jeff and Ace on the ladder, ending when Ace nailed Jeff with a headbutt, sending both men flying off.

At that moment, Eddie and Myers recovered, storming into the ring to clean house. Myers set up a table at ringside, drawing “Edge’s Bitch” chants from the crowd as he and Eddie prepared multiple tables.

At the 15-minute mark, the crowd erupted with “F*ck the System” chants. Eddie and Myers hit stereo Side Effects on both Hardys, crashing them through two tables. Myers followed up with a Spear on Ace and attempted a Con-Chair-To, but Bey intercepted, smashing Myers and Eddie with the chair. Bey then connected with an assisted Cutter on Myers, and Ace followed up with The Fold onto a steel chair. Eddie quickly recovered, planting Bey with a Blue Thunder Bomb.

Eddie made a move for the belts, but Bey woke up the crowd with a stunning Springboard Cutter. Bey dragged the ladder, with Ace still on it, toward the center of the ring, but Eddie pulled Ace off. Myers and Bey scrambled up the ladder, trading punches as the match reached the 20-minute mark. The System yanked the ladder, leaving Bey dangling from the belts. In a nod to the classic TLC match, Myers climbed a ladder and speared Bey in mid-air (just like Edge speared Jeff back in the day).

Eddie climbed the ladder, but Matt Hardy struck him from behind with a chair. Matt locked Eddie’s neck and delivered a Twist of Fate. Jeff followed with a Twist of Fate on Myers, both in the ring and at ringside. Jeff then pulled out a massive ladder, slipped briefly, but recovered to nail Myers with a front dropkick. After beating down Myers, Jeff placed him on a table and climbed the towering ladder, delivering a Swanton Bomb through the table.

A “Holy shit” chant echoed through the arena at the 25-minute mark. Matt made a move for the belts, but Ace struck him in the back with a chair. Just then, Alisha Edwards ran in and pushed the ladder Ace was climbing. Matt retaliated by hitting Alisha with a Twist of Fate—equal opportunity, right?

Eddie reappeared with “Kenny” the Kendo Stick, but Matt and Jeff hurled chairs at him as he reached for the belts. The Hardys then powerbombed Eddie through the tables at ringside. With the path clear, Matt and Jeff scaled the ladder together, grabbing the belts to become the new TNA Tag Team Champions.
