TNA Wrestling seemed not to have a lot to say. As you know, Nygma always has a lot to say.<\/p>\n<p>The System 2.0 kicks off the episode. I have to say &#8220;version 2.0,&#8221; as Eddie Edwards and Brian Myers welcomed Bear Bronson and Cedric Alexander. They also kicked JDC and Moose out of the faction. As we saw last week, Alisha Edwards was not very happy with this change. Nygma says, the big question for me is: will Alisha Edwards turn against or stand by Moose&#8217;s side?<\/p>\n<p>Elijah faces Jason Hotch. Before Elijah has another match against Ali, and a stipulation one, please, The Drifter will probably have to face all Order 4. Probably one after another, but for sure all of them every time. Nygma says, Elijah may face Hotch, Skylar, or Special Agent 0; he faces them all, and Ali wins. A Monsters&#8217; Ball, with horses and guitars,\u00a0 would be welcomed.<\/p>\n<p>Nic Nemeth faces the <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/2026\/01\/06\/tna-wrestling-signs-bde\/\" style=\"color: #0000ff;\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">newly signed BDE<\/a><\/span>. Nemeth has Mike Santana in his line of fire, thanks to the Call Your Shot cup. May he win or not, with or without his brother Ryan&#8217;s help, he will probably attack BDE after the match to make sure that Santana makes the save. Nygma says, in a &#8220;Zip&#8221; world, unzipping good ideas is complicated.

Nygma says, Whoever is fired, that won&#8217;t make me happy at all.<\/p>\n<p>Elayna Black will be in action. As I said last week, let me see her compete on the Impact Zone first. I watched Cora Jade on NXT, but I&#8217;ve never seen Elayna Black in action. Nygma says, I am from the school of Saint Thomas.

The former X-Division and World Champion knows how to be a bad guy when it&#8217;s necessary. He has proved it many times in TNA. Nygma says, when it comes to toys, Swann has as good a record as Bob the Builder.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll see you on Friday with all the results and the review. As I have already said many times, 2026 will be a loaded year for TNA Wrestling. Thursday Night iMPACT on AMC era is nothing but Nygma. How else could it be?
