(TGBH) What’s cracking everyone. It’s the bloggers that bloggest the mostest when it comes to predicting these event cards. This weekend, we are pulling off four em, believe that. First up, we breaking down the TNA Slammiversary card! Word on the streets, since TNA pre-records shows a month at a time, we are getting SIX title matches. What show am I watching? Is it TNA Slammiversary or TNA Night of Champions?
(PCM) TNA is going ham with one of their big 4 ppv’s this time! This feels like the end of a lot of stories tonight, which means expect a lot of new matchups coming out of this show. Overall this is a solid card, not a weak link among it, so let’s get to it.
(DSS) Man, I’m so behind on TNA, but I’m excited for this card. PPVs are always great shows, and TNA is pulling out all their biggest names for this one. I’m ready to lock in and see some great wrestling.
(TGBH) It’s gonna be a big weekend so we are gonna get right into it cause we two more blogs to write for yall. LETS GET TO IT!
PreGame w/bWo:
TNA Slammiversary 2026
AJ Francis vs. Elijah
(TGBH) Elijah is more played out than a Top 40 song on the third day of summer. It's just Elias with an updated look if you ask me. I need AJ Francis to send this guy packing, and his guitar too. Knowing Elijah we'll get a song about Boston for the cheap pop, and that's fair I guess. Still dont see an outcome where Elijah walks out with the win here.
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
AJ Francis
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
AJ Francis via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Mustafa Ali Open Challenge
TNA International Championship
(TGBH) Is the fed still working with TNA? I think so. There's something going down and I feel the fed is closing in on getting their hands on TNA. If they do, LA Knight would be a huge name to carry the brand. Yes i am aware he was Eli Drake in TNA, but we haven't heard LA Knight's music on TNA programming, yet. Maybe he'll be in Riyadh, or maybe he'll be in Boston. Or both. This is a move than can really shape things up. I'd pay close attention to the news.
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
LA Knight via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Mustafa Ali retains
TNA Knockouts World Championship
Lei Ying Lee(c) vs. Xia Brookside
(TGBH) This is a feud that has been brewing in the coffee machine for one too many drip cycles. Xia Brookside’s turn feels like it happened ages away and we’re barely getting a payout now. They’ve had interactions and matches on TV that should have been for the belt. But hey, ill take what I can get. Both have improved since their tenures with the fed and have found good footing in this rivalry to keep em on television. What comes next is what intrigues me most as this Knockout’s division looks pretty good on paper. Give Brookside the win and Lei Ying Lee and chase after her to get it back.
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Xia Brookside via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Xia Brookside via Pinfall
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Xia Brookside via Pinfall
Eric Young vs. Ricky Sosa
(PCM) So, is there a Cleanse or what? We have been waiting for this Cleanse EY has been talking about for a long time, like a Veer Mahan level of waiting. I have only seen a little bit of Ricky, mainly from his stuff here, and I like it. But EY needs something if this Cleanse thing is going to happen.
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Eric Young via Pinfall
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Ricky Sosa via Pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Ricky Sosa via Pinfall
TNA Knockouts World Tag Team Championship
The Elegance Brand(c) vs. Rosemary and Allie
(TGBH) Looks like almost everyone from the Elegance Brand will be on this card. The belts will finally be defended and we may be in for a swap. It's good to see Rosemary and Allie get some shine, even moreso knowing Allie just inked a new deal with TNA. It's a rough patch for the TNA brand and it's gonna need some help to stay afloat. Here we can give the fans something to be happy about and a feel good moment.
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Rosemary and Allie via Pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Rosemary and Allie via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Rosemary and Allie via Pinfall
Eddie Edwards vs. Moose
(PCM) Maybe after this, Moose can stop wearing his System gear. All kidding aside, this is one of those story enders I mentioned earlier. I see Moose moving up to the world title scene after this. I mean, Eddie too. However, Eddie has kind of always been there, but Moose is working his way back up. So give it to Moose and let the journey begin
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Moose via Pinfall
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Moose via Pinfall
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Eddie Edwards via Pinfall
Ladder Match
TNA World Tag Team Championship
The System(c) vs. The Hardys vs. The Righteous
(PCM) I think the time of the Hardys on top is over. Don’t get me wrong, I have been a huge fan since the 90’s. In fact, the first-ever shirt I ordered from the WWE Store was theirs. Will the Righteous be champs in TNA? That is a very likely option. But the System has just won them, and I have never been a fan of slingshot reigns. This match will slap hard, but I trust the system.
(TGBH) Hardys and Righteous have been feuding way too long and if feels like The System has only carried the belts about a week. Hoping this ladder match is what puts an end to The Righteous needing to spend their time carrying these old farts that keep breaking themselves on purpose. The Hardyz have been a focal point for TNA but it’s time for them to let some other teams shine…..dig what I’m saying? Will Broken Moose be a factor? There is alot that can happen here, and alot will. This will be a tag ladder match that'll go down amongst the greatest, I'll bet on that.
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
The System
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
The System
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
The Righteous
Ultimate X
TNA X-Division Championship
Cedric Alexander(c) vs. Leon Slater vs Mr Elegance vs. Fabian Aichner vs. KC Navarro vs. Frankie Kazarian vs. Amazing Red
(PCM) I am not even close to being partial here. I used to watch TNA way back during the weekly ppv’s. One of the first matches I remember was Sonjay Dutt vs. Amazing Red. Around a decade later, I got to be ringside for that match. Amazing Red retired in 2019 after a basically career ending neck injury. He was then able to come back and put on bangers with literally everyone. A lot of huge names have said he inspired them to wrestle, and he gave them that dream match. I have spent a lot of time with him, and this might be the best he has ever been. And in case you forgot, he has won one of these before. So, yeah, I am going to pick the man who taught me everything I know.
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Amazing Red
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Leon Slater
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Leon Slater
TNA World Heavyweight Championship
Mike Santana(c) vs. Nic Nemeth
(TGBH) Santana’s run at the top is well deserved and doesn’t look to end anytime soon. Santana has beaten Frankie Kazarian, Steve Maclin, and Eddie Edwards in his second reign as TNA World Heavyweight Champion and will more than likely add Nic Nemeth to that list. Nic Nemeth has been everywhere and continues to pop up in JCW and will probably continue to tour brands as a dependable former World Champion. But TNA needs their champion to be someone who shows up for TNA every week regardless of booking situations. TNA needs Mike Santana now more than ever. This match will be an excellent main event and has no clear winner as both are evenly matched, if not one better than the other. Santana needs to continue to build his resume before he drops the belt, Nemeth seems like the right guy to add some stock to his current reign.
(PCM) If the rumours are true, this is the swan song of Mike Santana. He has one of the best reinventions we have seen in wrestling for a very long time. But it seems he is off to Florida and bigger pastures where he will easily thrive. He finally got the title reign he deserved and should be applauded for it. But, I think Nemeth has his number here. Give him his flowers and watch him go off to where he deserves to be.
The Great Brown Hope’s Pick:
Mike Santana via Pinfall
PaperClip Mike’s Pick:
Nic Nemeth via Pinfall
Darkstar Shady’s Pick:
Mike Santana via Pinfall
