This Tuesday on NXT, Oba Femi and TNA X-Division Champion Moose participated in a press conference ahead of their highly-anticipated NXT Title match next week at WWE Roadblock. Both titans declared victory, with Moose vowing to leave Roadblock as a double champion.
Meanwhile, the reigning TNA World Tag Team Champions, The Hardys, appeared ahead of their title defense versus the NXT Tag Team Champions, Fraxiom. Matt and Jeff would cross paths with Hank Walker and Tank Ledger, Josh Briggs and Yoshiki Inamura, and eventually their Roadblock challengers, Fraxiom. The two teams faced off in the middle of the ring, setting the stage for what will surely be an epic encounter next week.
Also, Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich was in attendance as she scouted Cora Jade during her match against former multi-time Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace. With TNA Sacrifice and WWE Roadblock on the horizon, the war is meant to continue.

The Stakes at TNA
TNA X-Division Champion Moose has made it clear—he wants to leave WWE Roadblock as a double champion by dethroning NXT Champion Oba Femi. But before they step into the ring next Tuesday, the two will meet face-to-face in the middle of the iMPACT! Zone.
Last week, Moose sent a strong message to Femi by taking down Matt Hardy in their six-man tag team match. What will happen when these two powerhouses come face-to-face just days before their Championship showdown?
TNA newcomer Elijah faces one of the most strategic members of The System, Brian Myers. With Sacrifice just around the corner, where The System & The Colóns will battle Joe Hendry, Matt Hardy, Elias and two partners of their choosing, Myers will look to take down Elijah in his TNA singles debut. Will the veteran find a way to outsmart him or will Myers be forced to walk with Elijah?
After their shocking debut, The Colóns (Eddie & Orlando) made their intentions clear—they are in TNA to take over, and they don’t care who they have to go through to do it. But they have a major test ahead of them in the form of TNA World Tag Team Champions The Hardys. With TNA Sacrifice fast approaching, can the legendary brothers shut down The Colóns before they build more momentum?
After making her presence known at NXT, Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich has one goal—shutting down Cora Jade at Sacrifice. Last week, Jade blindsided Slamovich backstage, and now, the champion is looking for payback. What message will she send to her challenger before their TNA Knockouts World title match?
Since aligning with Eric Young, Judas Icarus & Travis Williams have wreaked havoc under the banner of The Northern Armory. This week, they team up with their leader, Eric Young, to take on Ace Austin & The Rascalz in what promises to be a high-energy battle. With The Rascalz set to face Wes Lee, Tyson Dupont, and Tyriek Igwe at Sacrifice, will they gain a much-needed win, or will The Northern Armory’s dominance continue?
After weeks of psychological warfare from Mustafa Ali, Mike Santana is looking for a fight. This week, he gets his hands on John Skyler of The Great Hands. But with Jason Hotch and Tasha Steelz lurking, will Skyler’s allies give him an unfair advantage, or will Santana prove that he’s ready for whatever Ali has in store for him at Sacrifice?
After the success of its premiere, The FIR$T CLA$$ Penthouse returns, with A.J. Francis & KC Navarro once again taking center stage. What will the loudest duo in TNA have to say on TNA iMPACT!?
The Knockouts division is as competitive as ever, and this week, Savannah Evans goes one-on-one with Xia Brookside. Evans came up short in her Knockouts World Title match against Masha Slamovich, but she isn’t backing down from the fight.
Meanwhile, Brookside is looking to regain momentum after a controversial loss to Cora Jade. Will the powerhouse Evans crush Brookside’s momentum, or can the young star pull off a major win in the iMPACT! Zone?
The Nygma’s View
What a stacked card! Indeed, we’re 6 days away from NXT Roadblock and 10 from TNA Sacrifice. Of course, Moose vs Oba Femi has been stealing the spotlight because it’s everything we want it to be: 2 generations colliding, a Clash of Titans.
We can only hope the Double Championship stipulation will be set in stone because it would mean so much for both TNA and NXT, the first-ever cross-promotional champion in history. Believe me when I say that I’m able to wake up at 1 AM next Tuesday to witness that live (Nygma is GMT+1, my dears…).
Elijah will face off Brian Myers in his first TNA match. Some might say, we saw that before somewhere else. It’s true, it happened in August 2018 on WWE Raw. But it was 2 other people at that time.
Now, Brian Myers is a key player of The System when Eliah seems to be more “anti-System.” Trust me, as long as they are not “anti-social” (only French people who knew the Punk era could understand that one… Apologies to the rest of the world).
The Hardys vs The Colons match is another prelude to the 5-on-5 TNA Sacrifice match. Matt and Jeff already have a lot on their plate with The System in TNA and Fraxiom in NXT. Like Elijah vs Myers, this match could easily end up as a big brawl.
After last week’s shocking attack by @CoraJadeWWE, Knockouts World Champion @mashaslamovich is set to address her upcoming title defense against Jade at #TNASacrifice on #TNAiMPACT!

Masha Slamovich has some things to tell us, and, of course, we can expect Cora Jade to be the main topic of her speech. Both ladies have been playing mind games for a few weeks on The CW like on AXS TV.
Masha Slamovich is never better than when she’s angry. May Cora Jade appear and take the risk to drive Masha completely crazy? That would be a very, very bad idea…
Eric Young and his sidekicks will compete against Ace Austin, Zachary Wentz and Trey Miguel. It’s a pretty cool clash of styles and generations. The Nygma likes that.
Will Steve Maclin appear? Will Wes Lee appear? Mike Santana vs John Skyler is nothing but a reason to see Mustafa Ali continue his psychological war on Santana.
AJ Francis has some things to tell the world, and maybe he should blame KC Navarro for his loss against Steve Maclin last week. Xia Brookside vs Savannah Evans is another match The Nygma will enjoy watching.
Because Evans failed to win her match against Masha Slamovich and Brookside lost her bout against Cora Jade, may they seek revenge as Masha has some things to say and Cora might appear? I push a bit far but the fact is everything is definitely possible in the iMPACT! Zone.
We’ll see if the Nygma’s crystal ball was right…
