The only answer I have had from the company is, &#8220;TNA Wrestling will be rounding out 2025 with visits to Orlando from November 13-15 and El Paso from December 5-7.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The first <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a  style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/tnawrestling.com\/news\/new-onsale-date-for-tna-wrestling-live-events-to-wrap-2025-season-in-orlando-florida-and-el-paso-texas\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">session<\/a><\/span> will feature a live TNA iMPACT episode, the TNA+ PLE, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a  style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/tnawrestling.com\/events\/tna-wrestling-orlando-november-14-2025\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Turning Point<\/a><\/span> on November 14, and a one-day taping session.

Until the day of TNA Bound For Glory, fans waited for something coming outta nowhere. Some fans thought it was NXT-related, that a TV deal had been signed, or that TNA would invade Full Sail University.<\/p>\n<p>Nothing came, and a question remained: how hasn&#8217;t TNA Wrestling capitalized on the success of Bound For Glory, which set a <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/12\/tna-wrestling-sets-new-attendance-record-at-tna-bound-for-glory-2025\/\" target=\"_self\">new attendance record<\/a><\/span> on October 12th? I may not have an answer, but TNA Turning Point 2025 is less than 10 days away. We can really ask ourselves what the show will be like. That&#8217;s what I will try to guess in this piece.<\/p>\n<h2>What Has Happened since TNA Bound For Glory 2025?<\/h2>\n<p>Since October 12, the best way to watch the TNA stars in action has been <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/26\/nxt-halloween-havoc-results-10-25-25-three-title-changes-in-one-scary-night\/\" target=\"_self\">NXT Halloween Havoc<\/a><\/span> and the weekly NXT episodes. Leon Slater teamed up with Je&#8217;Von Evans against AAA&#8217;s Mr. Iguana and La Parka. DarkState defeated The Broken Hardys to regain the NXT Tag Team titles. Kelani Jordan defeated Jordynne Grace <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/29\/wwe-nxt-results-10-28-25-a-chaotic-halloween-havoc-fallout\/\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">last week<\/span><\/a> to retain the TNA Knockout World Championship.

Zachary Wentz competed in the Speed Tournament.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, TNA Xplosion episodes paid tribute to the new TNA Hall of Famers, Mickie James and The Beautiful People. We also had a Team 3D\/The Hardys match from 2014. The only &#8220;fresh&#8221; content aired was a Raj Singh bout. When it comes to TNA iMPACT, you all noticed we had three special episodes: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/17\/tna-impact-after-the-glory-10-16-25-some-words-from-the-bound-for-glory-champions\/\" target=\"_self\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">After The Glory<\/span><\/a>, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/24\/tna-impact-bound-for-glory-fade-to-black-10-23-25-words-from-the-heart\/\" target=\"_self\">Bound For Glory: Fade to Black<\/a><\/span>, and a <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/31\/tna-impact-results-10-30-25-special-episode-a-very-broken-hardy-halloween\/\" target=\"_self\">Very Hardy Halloween<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<h2>The &#8220;Open Fight Night&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>This week is &#8220;Open Fight Night.&#8221; The concept of &#8220;any challenge that&#8217;s issued has to be accepted&#8221; debuted in April 2012, under the Hulk Hogan era. Nine episodes aired in 2012. TNA last held an Open Fight Night episode of iMPACT on February 2, 2017. Wrestlers who had won the Race for the Case on the January 19 episode of Impact Wrestling would be cashing in their briefcases for their desired matches. These bouts were taped.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing this, TNA Wrestling still has a few unaired matches from the <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/09\/28\/tna-impact-spoilers-9-27-25-title-change-and-injury-on-an-invasion-atmosphere\/\" target=\"_self\">last taping session<\/a><\/span> in Edmonton, AB. More precisely, a segment that could lead to a bout and four other bouts. These could be the ones we&#8217;ll watch on Thursday night. Without anything else in its back pocket, TNA Wrestling here could have its Open Fight Night episode.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Open Fight Night concept debuted in April 2012 &#8211; any challenge that&#39;s issued HAS to be accepted! <\/p>\n<p>Don&#39;t miss its long awaited return THURSDAY at 8\/7c on AXS TV, TNA+ and Sportsnet 360. <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TNAiMPACT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#TNAiMPACT<\/a> <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1MOm2lmhcB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/1MOm2lmhcB<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; TNA Wrestling (@ThisIsTNA) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ThisIsTNA\/status\/1985451927631544377?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">November 3, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h2>Who&#8217;s Onboard and What is TNA Turning Point 2025 Going to be About?<\/h2>\n<p>According to <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a  style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/tnamerch.com\/collections\/live-event-meet-greets\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TNA Turning Point Meet &amp; Greets<\/a><\/span>, Matt Cardona, Director of Authority Santino Marella, TNA World Tag Team Champions The Hardys, Tessa Blanchard, the Knockouts (TNA Knockouts World Champion Kelani Jordan, Alisha Edwards, L\u00e9i Ying Lee, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/28\/exclusive-interview-xia-brookside-we-are-called-tna-knockouts-for-a-reason-we-put-everything-on-the-line\/\" target=\"_self\">Xia Brookside<\/a><\/span>, Tasha Steelz, Dani Luna, Gia Miller, Jody Threat, Indi Hartwell, and TNA producer Jazz), The Rascalz (Zachary Wentz, Trey Miguel, and Myron Reed), The Elegance Brand (Ash, Maggie and Heather by Elegance) are announced to be there.<\/p>\n<p>The company also announced Nic &amp; Ryan Nemeth, TNA X-Division Champion Leon Slater, TNA International Champion Steve Maclin, Moose, Eric Young, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2025\/10\/07\/exclusive-interview-mustafa-ali-tna-wrestling-would-be-in-better-hands-if-i-was-in-charge\/\" target=\"_self\">Mustafa Ali<\/a><\/span>, TNA World Champion Mike Santana, and Brian Myers in the <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a  style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/tnawrestling.com\/news\/new-onsale-date-for-tna-wrestling-live-events-to-wrap-2025-season-in-orlando-florida-and-el-paso-texas\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ticket sale announcement<\/a><\/span> for the two sessions.

When is the Slater vs Evans X-Division title rematch? Is it over between Order 4 and the System, Tessa Blanchard and Gia Miller, and the Nemeths and the Home Town Man? What about Eric Young&#8217;s cleansing mission? Are Rich Swann and AJ Francis now enemies? What&#8217;s next for the returning Elijah? Also, Frankie Kazarian and Nic Nemeth both won the Call Your Shot Gauntlet match. That&#8217;s a lot to deal with in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<h2>Will NXT and the upcoming NXT Gold Rush events be involved?<\/h2>\n<p>NXT will be involved, one way or another. Don&#8217;t forget that Kelani Jordan is the current TNA Knockouts World Champion. If you check the <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a  style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/events\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">WWE events<\/a><\/span> page, you&#8217;ll see that NXT has two live events in Minnesota and Wisconsin, a bit too far from Florida. That doesn&#8217;t mean a few wrestlers couldn&#8217;t appear at TNA Turning Point, like TNA talents appear on NXT every week.<\/p>\n<p>On November 18 and 25, NXT <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a  style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/WWE\/status\/1982237489822650439\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gold Rush<\/a><\/span> events will be, for the first time, about NXT, TNA, Evolve, and AAA Championships defended. TNA Turning Point 2025 could become a PLE to determine the contenders for some titles at Gold Rush. Due to the DarkState involvement, I also suspect NXT Gold Rush is where the Slater\/Evans rematch could take place.<\/p>\n<p>In France, we say, &#8220;with ifs, we could do buts.&#8221; You prefer, if wishes were fishes or horses. That&#8217;s where we are now, asking ourselves what&#8217;s going to happen on Thursday night, next Thursday night, and next Friday night. All that we know right now is just that there&#8217;s an &#8220;Open Fight Night&#8221; this week, and next week, a live TNA iMPACT, plus the Turning Point PLE. That may be frustrating, but the who, the what, the how, and the why remain a pile of question marks, for the moment.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">ICYMI: TNA Wrestling brings Total Nonstop Action to Orlando, FL and El Paso, TX!<\/p>\n<p>Nov 13\u201315 | Full Sail University<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TNAiMPACT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#TNAiMPACT<\/a> LIVE + <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TNATurningPoint?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#TNATurningPoint<\/a><br \/>\ud83c\udf9f\ufe0fGet tickets: <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/dRkMaMMb9N\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/dRkMaMMb9N<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Dec 5\u20137 | El Paso County Coliseum<a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TNAFinalResolution?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#TNAFinalResolution<\/a> + <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/TNAiMPACT?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#TNAiMPACT<\/a> Tapings<br \/>\ud83c\udf9f\ufe0fGet tickets:\u2026 <a  href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/b2B1xSRRvn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/b2B1xSRRvn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; TNA Wrestling (@ThisIsTNA) <a  href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ThisIsTNA\/status\/1982507519315497162?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 26, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-content content-styled max-w-none\">\n<p><strong>More From LWOS Pro Wrestling<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Header image credit \u2013 TNA Wrestling \u2013 Stay tuned to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/\" target=\"_self\">Last Word on Pro Wrestling<\/a> for more on TNA iMPACT!, TNA Turning Point 2025, and other stories from around the world of wrestling, as they develop.
