Thursday Night iMPACT Review (5/28/26) – Challenging the Champions

Champions 0 – Challengers 2

TNA Knockouts Champion Léi Ying Lee was interrupted by The Personal Concierge before the Knockouts Championship Challenge later this evening. Elayna Black, Mara Sadè, and Xia Brookside were the “All-Stars” challengers in this match. We could feel Lee was the one to kill in this match, mostly with a Championship match for the winner.

In the end, Brookside and Lee got tags. Lee landed multiple kicks onto her, then Hammerfists, and slammed her down with an Xploder. She then hoisted Brookside up onto her shoulders and drove her down with Warriors Way. Black broke up the cover, M and Heather by Elegance hit a combo onto Black with a Code Breaker into a German Suplex, and Sadè answered with a DDT.

Mr. Elegance tried to interfere with the match. The Personal Concierge, too. Meanwhile, Lee set up for Warriors Way, but Mr. Elegance tripped up Léi Ying Lee, and Brookside dropped her with Darkside to secure the pinfall.

The Best of the Rest

  • The “Broken” Hardys were here, and The Righteous were ready for their Wicked Garden match after bringing out The “Broken” Hardys. They were ready to make sure The Hardys don’t come out the same.
  • AJ Francis demanded that his paperwork be ready by tomorrow.
