The Stakes at TNA
Director of Authority Santino Marella announced a huge 10-Man Tag Team match for Sacrifice, as Joe Hendry and Matt Hardy recruited Elijah to join their team. Nic Nemeth, who will be returning from suspension, and Leon Slater fill the final two spots. And if it wasn’t big enough, Marella announced that this 10-Man Tag, pitting Joe Hendry, Matt Hardy, Elijah, Nic Nemeth, and Leon Slater against The System and The Colóns, will take place at TNA Sacrifice 2025 inside of a Steel Cage.
At Genesis, NXT’s Cora Jade crossed the line to confront the reigning TNA Knockouts World Champion, Masha Slamovich. Jade would begin to play mind games with the champ, issuing her a death warrant. After racking up victories over Hyan and Xia Brookside, Jade attacked Slamovich following her match on the live iMPACT! from Full Sail University.
Jeff Hardy has had the number of Moose in recent months, pinning the reigning X-Division Champion on two separate occasions. Those victories have earned him a coveted X-Division Title opportunity at TNA Sacrifice 2025 but this will be no ordinary match. Instead, the X-Division Title will be hanging high above the ring in what is undoubtedly Jeff Hardy’s signature match type, a ladder match.
.@TheMooseNation faces off with @JEFFHARDYBRAND for the X-Division Title in a Ladder Match at #TNASacrifice LIVE on TNA+ on March 14 from the El Paso County Coliseum in El Paso, Texas.

This past January, Mustafa Ali made his return to TNA Wrestling, upstaging the surging Mike Santana in the process. For weeks, Ali has played mind games with Santana, resurfacing demons from his past. As Santana’s journey to become TNA World Champion continues, he must first overcome Mustafa Ali at TNA Sacrifice 2025.
Tessa Blanchard has been playing by her own rules since making her return to TNA Wrestling late last year. After being handed an ultimatum by Marella that forced Blanchard to compete or be fired, she made quick work of her opponent in her first match on iMPACT! in four years. Following a backstage altercation that saw Léi Ying Lee stand up to Blanchard, the two are set to face off in singles action at TNA Sacrifice 2025.
This past January, Wes Lee orchestrated an assault on his former friends, Zachary Wentz, and Trey Miguel, costing them their opportunity to become the NXT Tag Team Champions. Backed by his new allies, Tyson Dupont and Tyriek Igwe, Lee was put on the defensive when The Rascalz came to the aid of Ace Austin following a 3-on-1 attack. TNA iMPACT! was live from Full Sail University when The Rascalz toppled Tyson and Tyriek in tag team action, leading to this score-settling showdown.
After being tormented by the mysterious “23”, Sami Callihan felt the wrath of self-proclaimed Digital Media Champion Steph De Lander and her boyfriend, the debuting Mance Warner. Callihan and Warner have been at each other’s throats for weeks, resulting in numerous unsanctioned brawls. Callihan and Warner will settle the score in a Street Fight at TNA Sacrifice 2025, where anything goes.
The Death Machine @TheSamiCallihan vs. @ManceWarner goes down in a brutal Street Fight! No rules, no mercy—only destruction at #TNASacrifice!
Will Callihan’s violence reign supreme, or will Mance and @stephdelander bring the fight of a lifetime?

As the self-proclaimed “King of TNA”, Frankie Kazarian likes to stick his nose in other people’s business. Most recently, Kazarian chose to speak his mind to Steve Maclin, after he was involved in a verbal altercation with Eric Young. Now Kazarian, with the Call Your Shot trophy still in his possession, will face off against Steve Maclin in a singles bout.
AAA’s Octagon Jr. will bring his breathtaking style to El Paso, TX, as he teams with the rising Luchador, Laredo, against A.J. Francis and KC Navarro of FIR$T CLA$$ at TNA Sacrifice 2025.
Ash and Heather have been a thorn in the side of reigning champs Dani Luna and Jody Threat for the last several months. When Spitfire defeated Ash & Heather in their last meeting, the stakes were high and the Elegance brand was forced to become Spitfire’s personal concierge for 24 hours. After The Personal Concierge ensured Ash and Heather’s eventual escape from their duties, he must now answer for his actions in this conclusive showdown: Spitfire will defend the Knockouts World Tag Team Titles against Ash & Heather By Elegance, and The Personal Concierge, in a 2-on-3 match at TNA Sacrifice 2025.
BREAKING: @FrankieKazarian will take on @SteveMaclin one-on-one at #TNASacrifice streaming LIVE on TNA+ from the El Paso County Coliseum in El Paso, Texas!

The Nygma’s View
After failing to defeat NXT Champion Oba Femi, Moose will have another challenge tonight, showing that he is the king of the ladders. And to be the man, he will have to beat Jeff Hardy. That bout is another System vs Anti-System one and everyone could be involved in, which could favor Moose.
Since the NXT/TNA partnership, no champion has lost his title to a wrestler from the other company. Cora Jade may win the match via DQ but there’s absolutely no chance for her to become TNA Knockouts Champion. Tessa Blanchard, for sure, will make her presence felt, but the day we’ll have a cross promotional champion is when pigs fly (in France, we say when chickens have teeth).

Sami Callihan vs Mance Warner in a Street Fight. That will be epic, bloody, violent: everything your Nygma loves. Whoever wins, I will enjoy. Tessa Blanchard still has a lot to prove to earn a Title shot, probably more than Léi Yng Lee. We could easily say it’s a kind of #1 contender match for the TNA Knockouts title. Time will tell…
Mustafa Ali pushed Santana to his limits, that was a nasty game to play. Santana will seek revenge, despite Ali’s goons being by his side. The Rascalz and Ace Austin will have a lot to deal with, as Tyson Dupont, Tyriek Igwe, and Wes Lee are pretty heavy opponents. Outside of the feud, I see a lot of X-Dixision-style potential in this match. And I love this style of matches.
The 3 CountDown matches were announced yesterday on iMPACT! Maclin vs Kazarian will be a good one, but it doesn’t answer the question: when will Kaz call his shot? Spitfire vs The Elegances is a war meant to come to an end, please. Laredo Kid & Octagon Jr. vs AJ Francis & KC Navarro seems to come a bit out of nowhere, but I’m never against a good Lucha Libre style bout.
We’ll see if the Nygma’s crystal ball was right…
