Countdown to Against All Odds 2025
Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt are on commentary and they welcome everyone to Tempe, Arizona for Against All Odds 2025.
Elijah is shown arriving.
The Personal Concierge is in the ring. Did you know that Arizona University has the most STDs in America? The fans don’t have to worry about that, though, because they are all a bunch of 40-year old virgins. The Personal Concierge takes a shot at the guy in the production truck, as well - who is shown and takes offense to the jab. The Elegance Brand is then given an elegant introduction.

After the match, The Personal Concierge grabs a microphone and tells the crowd to look at the best and most beautiful tag team champions of all-time. The Inspiration’s music hits and they make their way to the top of the ramp. They gesture to their midsection as a sign of wanting the tag titles.
Jason Hotch and Tasha Steelz are in the locker room. Steelz is worried about what Hotch has to face tonight. Hotch says that he’ll be OK. Mustafa Ali and John Skyler enter the locker room. Ali says that loyalties will be tested tonight. Hotch will have to face his consequences. Everyone will have a role. Skyler will be on commentary and Steelz will be in Ali’s corner. Ali, Skyler, and Hotch walk away. Steelz calls someone and tells them“You’re the only one he’ll listen to.”
Steph De Lander interrupts Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt. She’s sick of hearing about how dangerous Steve Maclin is. Mance Warner is the Southern Psycho. Maclin is all about respect, but nothing matches being in a fight with Warner. Maclin will be kissing the TNA International Championship goodbye tonight.
A video package airs for the match between Santino Marella and Robert Stone for the TNA Director of Authority position.
Santino Marella and Arianna Grace make their way to the ring. Marella says that everything is on the line tonight - it could be his last night in TNA. He enjoys paying things forward in TNA - it’s given him purpose. Robert Stone wants to take it all away. Stone doesn’t want the responsibility, though - he just wants the clout. If Stone wants the job, then come and get it!
Robert Stone comes out to the ramp with Tessa Blanchard and Victoria Crawford. Stone says that what Marella said was adorable. TNA doesn’t need adorable…it needs Robert Stone! Stone isn’t a bad guy, Marella will be gone, but Grace can stay in TNA as Stone’s personal maid. TNA will be run by Stone after tonight and there’s nothing that Marella can do about it.
Marella says that there is something that he can do about it. He’ll be fighting for himself, Grace, and everyone watching tonight. Marella will be fighting for the families and the kids.
Matt Cardona’s music hits and he makes his way out to the top of the ramp. Cardona is a free agent and doesn’t work for any company - not TNA, WWE, or any backyard fed. He doesn’t owe anyone anything, so he’s the perfect man to call tonight’s Marella/Stone match right down the middle. Therefore, he’s the special guest referee for the match! TNA guy…WWE guy…it doesn’t matter. Both companies screwed Cardona over, so he’ll be calling the match right down the middle.
Marella hopes that Cardona is telling the truth. And oh yeah…Stone didn’t read the fine print. The Cobra is legal!
A video package airs for the TNA World Title match between Trick Williams and Elijah.
Tom Hannifan and Matthew Rehwoldt say that they are going to try and be unbiased tonight, but they are hoping that Elijah brings the TNA World Title back to TNA. Rehwoldt doesn’t understand what First Class sees in Trick Williams. They then go over the rest of tonight’s card.
Trick Williams is shown arriving…finally.
