Rating: ****
Reaction: A fun tag match with great work by all teams. It was great to see Sinner & Saint get a lot of offense in and they showed that they have a ton of potential that is yet to be realised.
Jody Threat says Santino Marella was kind enough to let her choose her own opponent for Open Fight Night, and she wants to fight Dani Luna.
A promo by The Personal Concierge who says they’re looking for Mr. Elegance. Ash by Elegance says he’s got to have a big juicy ass.

Rating: ***¾
Reaction: I love that these two got time here as they probably wouldn’t get that in a regular episode of IMPACT. Luna has a high ceiling, and I hope that she gets to wrestle higher up the card in 2026 with Ash by Elegance not wrestling and Masha Slamovich seemingly gone from TV.

Result: The Hardys def. The Colons by pinfall
Rating: ***
Reaction: The fans love The Hardys no matter where they go and while The Hardys may not have the same spring in their step that they did 25 years ago, they have enough experience at this point to be able to put on a good match within their limitations to please the fans. That’s what they did here and the added stipulation of it being a street fight, it made things easier for them to be able to do more stuff with The Colons.
The Hardys celebrate their win after the match.
We watch back Bobby Roode vs. AJ Styles for the TNA World Championship from the May 24th, 2012 episode of IMPACT Wrestling.

We also see footage of Kelani Jordan defending the TNA Knockouts Championship against Tyra May Steele and Santino setting up her match against Lei Ying Lee and Jordynne Grace.
A sit-down interview with Kelani Jordan and she says the difference between her North American title reign and TNA Knockouts title reign is time. She says she doesn’t feel pressure and she isn’t handing out title shots. She says there is no one better to get the title than Ash by Elegance and she believed in her when no one did. She is asked about potential challengers, and she mentions Lei Ying Lee and Indi Hartwell who she defeated. She says there are talent she is not familiar with like Tessa Blanchard, Tasha Steelz, Elegance Brand, Xia Brookside. She says she is not going to let anyone put a label on her because they want to see you do good but not better than them. She says she has already beaten Lei Ying Lee and Jordynne Grace but she’s going to defend the title with prestige and honor. She says there is no woman on the roster as innovative and athletic as her. She says no one can do it like Lani.
We see The Elegance Brand watching over the wrestlers in the ring as they hunt for Mr. Elegance in Edmonton. Ash says they need to get out of Edmonton because there are no men in Edmonton. She calls Edmonton a dump. They leave together.

Result: Mike Santana def. Cedric Alexander by pinfall
Rating: ****
Reaction: An excellent match. Cedric showed on this episode that he has it to be a high-level performer, both in the ring and on the mic. This got time and both Cedric and Santana worked their asses off in this match. Santana too got to push himself more than he usually does in TNA, against an opponent who could keep up with that pace. While Cedric has worked with Leon Slater in the past, his work on this show really opened my eyes to what he could be capable of as a talent for TNA.
