TNA Thursday Night iMPACT Review (6/4/26) – Hell is a Wicked Garden

Eric Young is on a mission

Eric Young was ready to cleanse TNA Wrestling. He reflected on his victory in the Champions Challenge last week and was ready to take the TNA World Championship from TNA World Champion Mike Santana. Young feels like he’s the only one ready to do whatever he has to do, and threatened Santana with a Piledriver. Santana was ready to take on Young, but he attacked him. He dropped Santana with a Piledriver and hoisted the TNA World Championship belt into the air.

The Unelegance Brand

Xia Brookside joins Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt on commentary for this match. Mr. Elegance dropped Léi Ying Lee to the canvas. Lee fired back, she flipped Mr. Elegance onto the canvas, and rained down Hammerfists. The Elegance Brand interfered, and the referee ejected them from the ringside. Lee then had free hands to make sure Mr. Elegance knew who she was.

When he climbed to the top rope, Lee slowed him up with a NutCracker. She hoisted him onto her shoulders, started to set up for Warriors Way, but Xia Brookside tried to interfere. Lee knocked down Brookside, and Mr. Elegance seized the opportunity to attack Lee from behind. He dropped her to the canvas with Excusez-Moi and secured the pinfall.

A “Flower Power meets Barbed Wire Massacre” Wicked Garden

There are no count-outs or disqualifications in this match, and the only way to win is by pinfall or submission inside the ring. Dutch and Vincent tried to send The Hardys into the barbed wire. The Righteous set up one of the boards to send The Hardys into it, and The Hardys countered by sending Dutch into it. Later, Dutch pulled Jeff from the top rope, and Vincent slammed a wrapped board into his midsection.

They wrapped up Jeff in the barbed wire, and Vincent shoved a flower into Jeff’s mouth. Matt Hardy took down both Vincent and Dutch. Jeff Hardy collapsed outside the ring, and the medical team tried to take him from the ringside. Jeff Hardy rushed back to the ring and attacked Dutch and Vincent. Dutch slammed down Matt Hardy with Death Walks, and Vincent slammed him down with the Orange Sunshine to secure the pinfall. The lights went out, and when they came back on, the Hardys were nowhere to be seen.
