Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Are on the line as the Hardys defend against the Rascals.
00:00:04It's a generational clash here at Genesis.
00:00:12When you're talking about the TNA, World Tag Team Championships,
00:00:16you are talking about the best of the best.
00:00:19And right now, those titles are being held by absolute legend.
00:00:24The dream tag team that we grew up watching.
00:00:32The Hardys have been reborn in 2024.
00:00:37Smoke them if you got them, and the Rascals been blazing a trail, baby.
00:00:41We're making dreams come true, and we're riding this high.
00:00:43I got a question for you.
00:00:44What do you guys think about the Rascals versus the Hardys?
00:00:50You can't run to die. It's time to come alive.
00:00:53What you got inside, that's how you survive.
00:00:56The two of you certainly remind us of us.
00:01:01You're invincible, you're hungry, you're extreme.
00:01:05In Dallas, Texas, Genesis, I think a big show like that deserves a big match like this.
00:01:12It's time to come alive.
00:01:13It's the battlefield.
00:01:15It's time to come alive.
00:01:17Welcome to the battlefield.
00:01:19The Hardys train, as the TNA World Tag Team champions, is moving full steam ahead, and nothing stops the Hardys
00:01:25train.
00:01:26Dallas, Texas, get ready for the Rascals and the Hardys in what's going to be known as the Tag Team
00:01:31Wrestling Match of the Year.
00:01:33We're going to blow the group off the place.
00:01:39Let's take a look at the taglines for this first-time-ever dream match.
00:01:44The Hardys recently defended the TNA World Tag Team titles against the system at final resolution in an unforgettable tables
00:01:51match.
00:01:52They're running up against the Rascals, who have won four straight tag matches since November.
00:01:57Two best of their generations meeting for the first time ever tonight at Genesis.
00:02:04Who will carry TNA's prestigious tag team division into the future?
00:02:26The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it's for the TNA World Tag Team Championship!
00:02:38Introducing first, the challengers, from the 419, Trey Miguel, Zachary Wentz, the Rascals!
00:02:50And you can see as Wentz and Miguel make their way to the ring, the homage to the Hardys all
00:02:55over here.
00:02:56Even Zachary Wentz has dyed his hair Jeff Hardy style.
00:03:00This is a dream come true for Trey and Zachary.
00:03:04They are going to be in there with not only one of the best tag teams to ever do it
00:03:10in this sport,
00:03:11but two personal heroes of theirs coming up in this business.
00:03:16They now have a chance to take it to men they watched growing up, men they idolized.
00:03:22They could take the gold off their waist.
00:03:35And their opponents from the Hardy compound in Cameron, North Carolina.
00:03:42They are the TNA World Tag Team Champions, Matt, Jeff, the Hardys!
00:03:57It is like electricity flowing through your veins!
00:04:02The Hardy train is rolling here at TNA Wrestling!
00:04:06Everywhere we go, every city that the Hardy boys touched down, the Hardys touched down it, baby!
00:04:13It is an absolutely electric atmosphere!
00:04:17As I mentioned earlier on tonight, TNA Wrestling is now on Snapchat.
00:04:21You've got to check it out now at us on Snapchat at ThisIsTNA.
00:04:25Because moments ago, content involving that Jeff Hardy was posted.
00:04:29Jeff Hardy talking about his face paper tonight.
00:04:32Matt Hardy was extremely focused, but both very hyped up for this matchup here tonight.
00:04:36You can see more behind-the-scenes and exclusive content with TNA Wrestling on Snapchat.
00:04:45These two teams have a lot of respect for each other.
00:04:51They've been looking forward to this contest, both the Hardys and the Rascals.
00:04:55The Hardys recognize the fire within these two young men.
00:05:00And we're looking forward to giving them this opportunity.
00:05:07The hell?
00:05:08Oh, the second.
00:05:10Oh, the phone.
00:05:11Oh, my God, Wills!
00:05:17For Axiom has crossed the line!
00:05:22Nathan Frazier and Axiom, the NXT Tag Team Champions, are here at Genesis!
00:05:29I can't believe them!
00:05:32They've got a couple of seats here for this tag title matchup, Tom!
00:05:42The partnership between WWE and TNA is strong!
00:05:47And we are thrilled to have the NXT Tag Team Champions at ringside for this TNA World Tag Team Championship
00:05:56match!
00:05:57Oh, my God!
00:05:59You never know who's going to cross that line next!
00:06:05These Tag Team Championships were introduced nearly two decades ago and have been a standard of excellence in professional wrestling
00:06:13when it comes to tag team work.
00:06:17So, here we go.
00:06:18Now, this is underway.
00:06:20It's Trey Miguel to start things off against Matt Hardy.
00:06:23This is a moment in time.
00:06:25Icons meet the next generation.
00:06:27The future looks to overtake the Trailblazers.
00:06:31Will the torch be passed?
00:06:33Do legends truly ever die?
00:06:37Here's something that the Rasslers are going to have to keep in mind.
00:06:41They look up to these guys.
00:06:43They've been taught a lot by the Hardys.
00:06:46But this ain't a training session.
00:06:48We ain't here to roll around and spar a little bit.
00:06:50This is about Tag Team gold.
00:06:52All respect and everything goes out the window to a certain degree.
00:06:57The bell has rung.
00:06:58It is time to fight.
00:07:01And now, Hardy here.
00:07:04Oh, loading up Trey Miguel.
00:07:09For a hip toss here.
00:07:10And Trey Miguel.
00:07:12A stalemate here with Matt Hardy.
00:07:17Matt Hardy.
00:07:19Very impressed.
00:07:20Again, as we've heard over the last several weeks,
00:07:22with everything the Rasslers bring to the table.
00:07:28A tag made.
00:07:29In comes Zachary Wentz to meet Jeff Hardy.
00:07:33This is all the young man Zachary Wentz has ever dreamed of since he was a little boy.
00:07:39The charismatic enigma.
00:07:42John DeHerova almost took down Wentz.
00:07:45If you're Zachary Wentz,
00:07:46how are you not having an out-of-body experience right now?
00:07:49You're in there with the charismatic enigma.
00:07:51You better try that.
00:07:52You better stay in that body of yours,
00:07:54because you're going to lose this next title matchup real quick if you don't.
00:07:57I always say that.
00:07:59Anytime someone gets to work with someone they look up to,
00:08:02an idol if you will.
00:08:03Hot damn.
00:08:05Cover that.
00:08:06You got to keep that in check.
00:08:09Tight.
00:08:11Vital there.
00:08:13Out there by Wentz.
00:08:16Get even thus far.
00:08:18You're doing the Hardys and the Rascals.
00:08:21My memory serves me right.
00:08:23The Rascals own the number one contendership to the NXT Tag Team title.
00:08:28I believe they do.
00:08:29I saw the Rascals get a little worked up when Praxium came out here.
00:08:33It was back in September that the Rascals won a number one contendership to those Tag Titles.
00:08:40There's a cover.
00:08:42Trying to retain are the Hardys in a kickout.
00:08:45First things first here for Wentz and Miguel.
00:08:47They've got to focus on the living legends, Matt and Jeff Hardy.
00:08:51So here's the thing, though.
00:08:52That means there's a timeline.
00:08:54There's a world where the Rascals walk out of here with the TNA World Tag Team titles
00:08:59and potentially.
00:09:00Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
00:09:02I'm saying there's a world.
00:09:03I understand what you're saying.
00:09:04Wes Lee really threw a wrench into that plan,
00:09:07and that hope for the Rascals in 2024 as that friendship between Lee, Miguel, and Wentz.
00:09:15Oh, it's disintegrated thanks to Lee.
00:09:17Oh, a leg drop there by Jeff Hardy.
00:09:19Great teamwork by the Hardys.
00:09:21There's that teamwork that made the Hardys so famous there.
00:09:26Quick splash.
00:09:27Here's the cover.
00:09:28Hook to the leg.
00:09:28Out at two is Wentz.
00:09:30We saw Ariana Grace on a shot to the Adonis on a countdown to Genesis,
00:09:38and now we have Nathan Frazier in action,
00:09:41one of the best tag teams going at ringside tonight at Genesis.
00:09:45This is incredible.
00:09:46Beautiful knee there.
00:09:47Zachary Wentz takes Jeff Hardy off his feet,
00:09:50and now the Rascals beginning to roll here.
00:09:53It's a great idea by the Rascals.
00:09:55They've taken so many lessons for the Motor City Machine Guns over the years.
00:09:59It's two-on-one offense.
00:10:00Tuxing arm, trying to win the titles in a kickout.
00:10:04Talk about the Hardys and their history of extreme.
00:10:08They've even acknowledged the extreme nature of the Rascals,
00:10:11the things they're willing to do in tag team matchups.
00:10:15Good wherewithal there.
00:10:17Trey, McHale, and Zachary Wentz.
00:10:19A little wishbone there.
00:10:20Double drop kick.
00:10:24All the ways that the Rascals have paid homage to Chris Bay
00:10:27and the ABC ever since Chris Bay was injured back in October.
00:10:31The Hardys have been mentoring the Rascals and Ace Austin ever since,
00:10:35considering that close bond between the Hardys, the Rascals,
00:10:39and Ace Austin with Chris Bay.
00:10:40No doubt about it.
00:10:41Trying to win the championship.
00:10:43Oh, and a kick out.
00:10:44There's Matt Hardy just in case.
00:10:46But again, this ain't about mentorship.
00:10:48This ain't about idolizing anybody.
00:10:50This is just about gold for these moments,
00:10:53for these minutes right here, right now.
00:10:55And certainly it's on a mutual respect.
00:10:57We understand that.
00:10:59Oh, Carol.
00:10:59And now Wentz through the ropes.
00:11:02Wait, wait, wait.
00:11:03Oh, Matt Hardy.
00:11:04Matt Hardy going for the side effects on the floor.
00:11:16And now Wentz over the barricade and back inside the ring.
00:11:22Miguel was concerned about Wentz and Jeff Hardy found an opening.
00:11:26Wentz has just been dumped into the crowd here courtesy of Matt Hardy.
00:11:31Shoulder first right into the midsection.
00:11:33The Hardys did explore the space in the triple main event of this past year's
00:11:37Bound for Glory, a historic night.
00:11:39The reimagined full metal mayhem match certainly went all throughout the venue
00:11:43that night in Detroit.
00:11:44That's very, very true.
00:11:46These two veterans know every trick in the book.
00:11:48They know the athletic advantage is going to go to the Rascals.
00:11:51They've got to get creative.
00:11:53Look, in my view, to me, that shows that the Hardys take the Rascals.
00:11:58Cover, trying to retain the titles in a kick-ass.
00:12:00It's a very serious threat if they're willing to do things like that
00:12:03to Zachary Wentz to eliminate him from the equation.
00:12:07Completely agree.
00:12:08Miguel has got to withstand this for now.
00:12:10If the Rascals have any hope in this match.
00:12:14Right now, Miguel's getting deleted by Matt Hardy, the broken one.
00:12:24Ow.
00:12:26They just have the door wide open here.
00:12:29Hook to the leg.
00:12:31Oh, and the shoulder up in time there.
00:12:33Even if Trey Miguel can get away at this point, there's nobody to tag.
00:12:36And there's a long-ass distance to cover if Zachary Wentz can get back into the game.
00:12:46Two-on-one opportunity for the Hardys.
00:12:49Well, they're going for it.
00:12:50The blood twist.
00:12:53The Hardys continue to revolutionize.
00:12:57Here's the cover.
00:12:58Trying to hold on to the tag.
00:12:59Titles.
00:13:00And there is Wentz to save the matchup.
00:13:03I didn't even see him coming.
00:13:04Just in the nick of time, Zachary Wentz saves this title matchup for the Rascals.
00:13:10Tag made.
00:13:11Matt Hardy's legal.
00:13:13Miguel has got to make a tag somehow.
00:13:18And Wentz now has found his way back to the Rascals' corner.
00:13:22There's Jeff Hardy to meet Miguel.
00:13:25Miguel tried to counter there to no avail.
00:13:28Wait, this time.
00:13:30Oh, and the referee, Paige Brinzavalli, was trying to get Jeff Hardy out of the ring.
00:13:33I think that slowed up the Hardys.
00:13:35They were listening to the official.
00:13:37That gave Miguel a chance to make a tag.
00:13:39And Wentz is back into the play, back into the fight here.
00:13:44And now Wentz with the double dropkick.
00:13:47And a kippah.
00:13:52Wentz having a hell of a turnaround here.
00:13:56Tag team gold on the line.
00:13:59Tag made to Miguel.
00:14:01Miguel's taking a real beating, but all of a sudden the Rascals have their life.
00:14:05Oh, right to the face.
00:14:08Great team mark here by the Rascals.
00:14:10Stereo offense here for the challengers.
00:14:19And how can they follow up?
00:14:21How can they put away the living legends, the Hardys here?
00:14:29Now Wentz.
00:14:30Oh, able to drop.
00:14:31Oh, the Hardys went right into the laps of Nathan Frazier and Axiom, NXT Tag Team Champions.
00:14:41Look at this.
00:14:42A little bit of tension here, but what?
00:14:43In the ring.
00:14:44Look out.
00:14:45Oh, wait a minute.
00:14:46Oh, wait a minute.
00:14:47Miguel took out Fraxion by accident.
00:14:56Look at this.
00:15:03Listen, the NXT Tag Champs came out here.
00:15:06We didn't know they were coming out here.
00:15:07They sat five feet from an active match.
00:15:10Tensions boiling over here.
00:15:12Security finally getting some space between the NXT Tag Team Champions, Fraxion, and the Rascals.
00:15:19Look at how Matt Hardy able to track down Trey Miguel.
00:15:24Plenty of tension on the outside as a security.
00:15:27Trying to get Axiom and Nathan Frazier out of the impact zone into the backstage area.
00:15:34Hold on.
00:15:35Hold on a second.
00:15:36Jeff Hardy.
00:15:37Off of the steps.
00:15:40A little poetry in motion on the outside here.
00:15:44Good mean Matt on that one.
00:15:45Susie's the stairs.
00:15:46Hardy.
00:15:47Hardy.
00:15:48Hardy.
00:15:49Hardy.
00:15:49Back inside the ring.
00:15:51Kick right to the midsection.
00:15:52Jeff Hardy trying to set up Trey Miguel.
00:15:55And he's first.
00:15:57Is that enough?
00:15:58Trying to hold on to the Tag Team titles and another kick out.
00:16:04Oh.
00:16:05Wentz smashing.
00:16:06Matt Hardy face first into the steel steps.
00:16:12It's Jeff and Miguel that are legal.
00:16:16Oh.
00:16:17And that knee strike by Wentz.
00:16:19That was a lights out shot potentially.
00:16:25On another side effect from Matt Hardy to Wentz.
00:16:29This time inside the ring.
00:16:31On McGill.
00:16:33Pop right back up with the Nsiguri.
00:16:35Beautiful athleticism there from McGill.
00:16:40It is dead even here at Genesis Live in Dallas.
00:16:45A first time ever dream match.
00:16:48A battle of the generations.
00:16:51The Hardys and the Rascals for the Tag Team titles.
00:16:58And Wentz dumped to the floor once again.
00:17:00It is a two-on-one scenario.
00:17:03The Hardys on Trey Miguel here.
00:17:05We saw it on the outside.
00:17:07Can we get it in the ring?
00:17:09A genuine article.
00:17:10Some poetry in motion.
00:17:12And Jeff Hardy is grabbing at his left knee.
00:17:14Three, three, three, three, four.
00:17:18And now Matt Hardy.
00:17:25Going for a twist of fate.
00:17:26Hold on.
00:17:27McGill able to stop it.
00:17:28Oh, and down goes Jeff Hardy.
00:17:29Jeff is favoring that left knee.
00:17:31That's right.
00:17:31Greg Wervitho there from McGill.
00:17:34And look at this.
00:17:36Oh, the super kick right to the face.
00:17:39They could try and end it right here.
00:17:40Fate up to the Lions.
00:17:42Is that it?
00:17:43Is it we going to be new Tag Team Champions here?
00:17:45It swept out McGill.
00:17:46Oh, my God.
00:17:47McGill couldn't get the cover and get the win.
00:17:50So incredibly close there.
00:17:55That was near catastrophe for the Hardys.
00:18:00Wentz doing everything he can to eliminate Matt Hardy from the picture.
00:18:05But Jeff Hardy somehow having the resilience to stay in this.
00:18:09This is awesome.
00:18:11This is awesome.
00:18:14This is awesome.
00:18:17Oh, Jeff Hardy trapped there.
00:18:20Oh, a little 619 action.
00:18:23Look at this.
00:18:25Loading up the charismatic enigma.
00:18:28Wait.
00:18:29And Jeff Hardy on one good wheel continues to fight back.
00:18:33Oh, McGill off at the top.
00:18:35Twist of fate.
00:18:36Is that enough?
00:18:37Can the Hardys retain?
00:18:39Oh, and a kick out.
00:18:45That was a huge opportunity.
00:18:47The ring was clear.
00:18:49But Trey McGill digs down deep.
00:18:57Going for another twist of fate.
00:18:59And there's Wentz to protect McGill.
00:19:05And look out.
00:19:06Oh, my God.
00:19:07Oh.
00:19:08Wentz, I think, was trying to set up for that UFO cutter.
00:19:11Hardy felt it coming.
00:19:13Great counter by broken Matt Hardy.
00:19:15Oh.
00:19:16Was trying to set up maybe for the plot twist.
00:19:18Went for one twist of fate.
00:19:20And now a second from Matt Hardy.
00:19:24McGill is down.
00:19:27And Jeff Hardy's gone up top.
00:19:30And you know where this story goes.
00:19:34Swanton Bomb.

00:19:39One, two, three.
00:19:41The Hardys defeat the Rascals.
00:19:45Here are your winners and still the TNA World Tag Team Champions.
00:19:55The Hardys.
00:19:58On the countdown, Mark Henry said these guys have been through wars and they just won another.
00:20:06Ladies and gentlemen, I was mentioning the relationship that all these men have with Chris
00:20:10Bay from the ABC every day, our hearts are with our brother, recovering from injury.

00:25:53We'll do anything to get it back
00:25:56Seven years
00:25:58It must have been hard
00:26:00Waiting for those seven years
00:26:03Watching everyone else pass you by
00:26:09Passes by?
00:26:11More like replaced us

00:26:16The monsters fall
00:26:18The demons dance
00:26:20Countless hardcore matches
00:26:23We were the epitome of violence
00:26:25In this company
00:26:27The only one
00:26:28Who took anything from you
00:26:30Was you
00:26:32When will you prove yourself?
00:26:36You fall
00:26:37Depression
00:26:38All the monsters fall
00:26:40Demons
00:26:41Dances
00:26:42And everything
00:26:42Adds up to this
00:26:44The ravens
00:26:45Clockwork
00:26:46Orange
00:26:46House of Honor
00:26:50Know
00:26:51That you know
00:26:52That you are stepping
00:26:54Into this match
00:26:56With one of the most violent knockouts
00:27:00In TNA history
00:27:04Let the sin creep in, darling
00:27:08I'm going to take your soul
00:27:10Piece by piece
00:27:12When I feel your blood running down my hands
00:27:16And I can smell it
00:27:17In your hair
00:27:18And I can taste it on my tongue
00:27:29Baby
00:27:31We're either going to touch the sky
00:27:34Or I'm dragging you to hell with me
00:27:45Let's take a look at the tale of the tape
00:27:47These are two of the most violent knockouts
00:27:49To have ever stepped foot in TNA wrestling
00:27:52As we learned earlier on tonight
00:27:54From our broadcast colleague
00:27:55Gia Miller on the countdown to Genesis
00:27:56This is historic
00:27:58This is the first all knockouts
00:28:01Clockwork Orange
00:28:02House of Fun match
00:28:03To ever occur
00:28:04In TNA wrestling
00:28:26The following is for the TNA Knockouts World Championship
00:28:32This match is a Clockwork Orange House of Fun match
00:28:36Where there are no disqualifications
00:28:39And falls
00:28:40Count
00:28:41Anywhere
00:28:44Introducing first
00:28:45The challenger
00:28:46From the undead realm
00:28:51Rosemary
00:28:52And Tom
00:28:55Just look at the ring
00:28:58Littered
00:28:59Adorned
00:29:01With instruments of violence
00:29:02Instruments of destruction
00:29:04We are set
00:29:06For not exactly
00:29:08Your prettiest
00:29:09Most technical
00:29:10Spectacle
00:29:12Of a knockouts world title match
00:29:14That's for damn sure
00:29:16This absolute debaucherous monstrosity
00:29:20This absolute debaucherous monstrosity
00:29:21Was made infamous by the TNA Hall of Famer Raven
00:29:23Beginning in 2003
00:29:25In 2003
00:29:26Raven inspired Rosemary
00:29:28To propose this match title
00:29:41And her opponent
00:29:42From Moscow
00:29:43She is the TNA Knockout
00:30:16World Champion
00:30:17Masha Slanovic
00:30:18Hardened herself
00:30:19And honed her craft
00:30:21In
00:30:21All over the world
00:30:22Even before coming here
00:30:23To TNA Wrestling
00:30:25And it's that toughness
00:30:27That fortitude
00:30:27That led her
00:30:28To that championship
00:30:29That she now defends
00:30:31As you said
00:30:32In this debaucherous dance
00:30:33That is a Clockwork Orange
00:30:36House
00:30:36Of
00:30:37Fun
00:30:41All the weapons
00:30:42Suspended
00:30:43From the ring
00:30:45This match can go
00:30:46Wherever your imagination
00:30:48Takes you
00:30:48And that is terrifying
00:30:50No
00:30:51Not wherever
00:30:52Our imagines
00:30:53Take us
00:30:54It's wherever
00:30:55Their imagination
00:30:56Take them
00:30:57And that is a scary
00:30:58Scary thought
00:30:59Rosemary
00:31:00Slamovich charge
00:31:01Right at each other
00:31:04Remember
00:31:04There are
00:31:05No countouts
00:31:06False count
00:31:07Anywhere
00:31:08In this matchup
00:31:08No disqualifications
00:31:10As well
00:31:12You need it already
00:31:13Slamovich
00:31:14Going right
00:31:15For one of those
00:31:15Weapons
00:31:16That trash can lid
00:31:23It was Kane's
00:31:27Staple gun
00:31:28We saw a very
00:31:29Different type of war
00:31:30Earlier on tonight
00:31:31When Tessa Blanchard
00:31:32Defeated Jordan Grace
00:31:33And they
00:31:34Won for the ages
00:31:35Frankly
00:31:36This is going to be
00:31:37A very different
00:31:38Battle
00:31:39And we are wasting
00:31:40No time
00:31:42Using the weapons
00:31:43Using the plunder
00:31:44Around the ring
00:31:45To inflict pain
00:31:47And look at there
00:31:48I told you
00:31:49There's the staple gun
00:31:57These early goings
00:31:59This is all Slamovich here
00:32:01She is at home
00:32:02In this kind of matchup
00:32:04And this is your
00:32:05If this is your first time
00:32:06Watching TNA Wrestling
00:32:07This is the first time
00:32:08We've had one of these matches
00:32:09In two years
00:32:11It is that dangerous
00:32:14Oh dear God
00:32:15Oh dear God
00:32:15Oh my God
00:32:16Oh no no no no no no
00:32:19Trying to drive the staple gun
00:32:21Towards Slamovich's face
00:32:23And oh
00:32:25Stapling the hand of Rosemary
00:32:29Masha able to avoid
00:32:30The infamous curse
00:32:31Of when you introduce
00:32:32The most dangerous weapons
00:32:33They often get turned
00:32:35Against you
00:32:35Oh my God
00:32:36Oh my God
00:32:36Oh no
00:32:52Into the armpit
00:32:58Ended up once shaving
00:32:58And cried like a baby
00:32:59For an hour
00:33:00How are they doing this
00:33:05And Slamovich
00:33:06Is bounding around
00:33:08This environment
00:33:09Like it's a playground
00:33:11And in Masha Slamovich's mind
00:33:13That's exactly what this is
00:33:20Unhooking that chain
00:33:24Whether she wants to use
00:33:25That as a weapon
00:33:26Or just wants more room
00:33:27To play
00:33:28I don't know
00:33:31Oh
00:33:32Using that cane
00:33:38You hear that cane
00:33:41Getting smacked off
00:33:42Of the steel barricade
00:33:43At ringside
00:33:44Look at this
00:33:45Oh
00:33:46The green miss
00:33:48Which instigated
00:33:49This entire situation
00:33:51Just weeks ago
00:33:55Blinding the knockouts
00:34:25World champion
00:34:27Unreplaced
00:34:27That the knockouts of today
00:34:30Have been given
00:34:30The platform
00:34:31That was once hers
00:34:33And especially Masha
00:34:35And especially Masha
00:34:36Having this reputation
00:34:37For viciousness
00:34:38For violence
00:34:39That was once a crown
00:34:40Of Rosemary's
00:34:47Going for the DDT
00:34:49Was trying to drive Slamovich
00:34:50Face first
00:34:51Into the steel chair
00:34:52Slamovich is having
00:34:53Trouble seeing
00:34:53It's just striking out
00:34:55Whatever's in front of her
00:34:56Was keeping a close hand
00:34:57There on Rosemary
00:34:59There on Rosemary
00:34:59No one to strike
00:35:00Oh and a drop
00:35:02Slamovich into the steel chair
00:35:04Unable to see Rosemary
00:35:06With that counter
00:35:09And that may play
00:35:10A way bigger factor
00:35:11Than even I thought it would
00:35:12In this matchup
00:35:16You can't see these twisted
00:35:18Instruments coming at you
00:35:19There's nothing you can do
00:35:20Think about all the trailblazers
00:35:22In the history
00:35:23Of TNA's knockouts division
00:35:25Our women's division
00:35:26This championship
00:35:27Was first instituted
00:35:28Back in 2007
00:35:29The TNA Hall of Famers
00:35:30Gail Kim
00:35:31And Austin Kong
00:35:32The likes of Madison Reign
00:35:33The beautiful people
00:35:35Tara
00:35:35The list goes on and on
00:35:37Deanna Purrazzo
00:35:38Jordan Grace
00:35:38Tessa Blanchard
00:35:39Yes
00:35:40There is a tremendous legacy
00:35:42But Rosemary
00:35:43Oh
00:35:43Slamovich
00:35:45Upping the ante
00:35:46Upping the violence
00:35:48Tonight
00:35:48At Genesis
00:35:50And these two
00:35:52Adding another
00:35:53Vicious chapter
00:35:54To that historic
00:35:55Legacy Tom
00:35:56Here tonight
00:36:07That's a heavy
00:36:08Duty chain
00:36:10In the hands
00:36:11Of Masha Slamovich
00:36:13Oh my god
00:36:21Dragging Rosemary
00:36:22By the throat
00:36:25Well you heard
00:36:26Masha Slamovich
00:36:27Either Rosemary
00:36:29You're going to be able
00:36:29To reach the sky
00:36:30And reach the heavens
00:36:31Or I'm going to drag
00:36:32You to hell
00:36:33With me
00:36:33Masha Slamovich
00:36:35Providing a literal
00:36:37Incarnation of that
00:36:40That barbed wire
00:36:42Board
00:36:44Just one of many
00:36:45Tools out here
00:36:46Two of them
00:36:46For that
00:36:48Slamovich
00:36:49Launching that
00:36:49Jarrett Rosemary
00:37:01Right
00:37:01Right to the sternum
00:37:10Look out
00:37:11Oh my god
00:37:13And Rosemary
00:37:14Avoided that
00:37:15Slamovich
00:37:17With that
00:37:17Flipping
00:37:17Sentine
00:37:18I think
00:37:18Might have
00:37:19Met right
00:37:20Right at the corner
00:37:20Of that chair
00:37:22Right to the
00:37:23Small of the
00:37:23Back
00:37:24Oh
00:37:26That green mist
00:37:28The effect
00:37:29Still being felt
00:37:30By Slamovich
00:37:31You can see
00:37:31The mist
00:37:32Stall over
00:37:32Slamovich
00:37:40Now where
00:37:41Where's
00:37:41Rosemary
00:37:42Going
00:37:42Rosemary
00:37:43Has been
00:37:43In every
00:37:44Extreme style
00:37:44Matchup
00:37:45You can
00:37:45Possibly
00:37:46Imagine
00:37:48Do these dance
00:37:49I think she just
00:37:50Discovered something
00:37:51Under the ring
00:37:53There Tom
00:37:53She looked
00:37:55Gleeful
00:37:55Oh my god
00:37:57Dear lord
00:37:59It's Janice
00:38:02The calling card
00:38:04Of the TNA
00:38:05Hall of Famer
00:38:05Abyss
00:38:06Who mentored
00:38:07Rosemary
00:38:08Within decay
00:38:13That history
00:38:14Of violence
00:38:15Of these extreme
00:38:17Matches began
00:38:18All the way
00:38:18Back then
00:38:19And that legacy
00:38:20Continues
00:38:21Oh
00:38:21I was about to say
00:38:23Who could forget
00:38:23Monsters Ball
00:38:24Made famous
00:38:25By Abyss
00:38:27My god
00:38:29Rosemary
00:38:30I think
00:38:30Broke Janice
00:38:32What's up
00:38:33Fighting back
00:38:33With pieces

00:56:54The first time these two claps are down for glory.
00:56:57Henry's dream was cast by forces outside of his control.
00:57:02They believed he would never get another opportunity like this again.
00:57:06And he runs up against the man that is arguably the greatest wrestler walking the planet today.
00:57:12The fighting champion.
00:57:14One of the most decorated wrestlers alive.
00:57:17The wanted man, McNamara.
00:57:21Ladies and gentlemen, we can officially announce that we are sold out tonight for TNA Genesis.
00:57:26We want to sincerely thank the Curtis Caldwell Center and the city of Dallas for the hospitality.
00:57:32And we want to thank the TNA Wrestling family.
00:57:35Not only here in Dallas, but also all of them working from all corners of the world to make this
00:57:41company so special day in and day out.
00:57:44Thank you all for joining us tonight for Genesis.
00:58:09The following contest is scheduled for one fall.
00:58:12And it's for the TNA World Championship.
00:58:24Introducing first the challenger.
00:58:27From Edinburgh, Scotland.
00:58:30Weighing in at 252 pounds.
00:58:35Joe Hendry.
00:58:53And his opponent from Cleveland, Ohio.
00:58:57Weighing in at 213 pounds.
00:59:01He is the TNA World Champion.
00:59:06The wanted man, Nick Nemeth.
00:59:26Nick Nemeth came to TNA to continually revolutionize his career.
00:59:33That is already a Hall of Fame-level career.
00:59:37If you ask anybody who's watched this sport for any number of years and watched Nick Nemeth work.
00:59:44He knew that this was where some of the best talent on the planet was and came to prove himself
00:59:50against them.
00:59:55And now he has to prove it against arguably the hottest act of the entire year last year.
01:00:03Who gets it done here in Dallas?
01:00:06It's not just an act.
01:00:08What Joe Hendry has been pursuing.
01:00:11It's not a flash in the pan.
01:00:13It's not an overnight sensation.
01:00:14This has been 12 years of grinding.
01:00:18And trying to find that moment when he could break through.
01:00:21And yes, Joe Hendry broke through in a big way in 2024.
01:00:26He came this close at Slammiversary in a six-man elimination match.
01:00:30He came this close at Bound for Glory one-on-one with Nick Nemeth.
01:00:34But as I mentioned, that night you had Frankie Kazarian as a special guest referee attempting to call his shot
01:00:40for a TNA World title match.
01:00:42Kazarian's looming in the building tonight.
01:00:44Let's remember that.
01:00:44John Layfield's involvement that night at Bound for Glory.
01:00:48That clothesline from hell he delivered to Joe Hendry and Frankie Kazarian.
01:00:54And also, unbeknownst to Nick Nemeth that night in Detroit,
01:00:58John Layfield struck his brother Ryan Nemeth,
01:01:02who has been kicked out of the ringside area from what we understood moments ago.
01:01:10Joe Hendry has the opportunity to prove all of those doubters,
01:01:15to prove anybody who does say it's an act, it's a flash in a pan,
01:01:18it's 15 minutes of fame here and gone.
01:01:22Tonight is the night Hendry has to prove that once and grow.
01:01:26By his own word, this feels like it's his last chance.
01:01:34They say everything in life comes back around.
01:01:37The match that Joe Hendry had saved and downloaded on his iPod,
01:01:42and it'll date us all, I understand that life,
01:01:45was the match between Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe,
01:01:48ironically, from Genesis 2006.
01:01:50That's what hooked him.
01:01:51That's what hooked him to TNA Wrestling years ago.
01:01:54And Scott was covering a kick count by Hendry.
01:01:56A two count early.
01:01:57It's got to be careful.
01:01:58Here we go, Dan.
01:01:58Another couple, another two count early.
01:02:02And it's using it.
01:02:03Here we go.
01:02:03Whoa.
01:02:05Shoulders down, shoulders down there by Hendry.
01:02:07Hendry, a champion in the Commonwealth Games many years ago,
01:02:11did that to get himself to be able to handle the world of professional wrestling
01:02:17from an athletic standpoint.
01:02:18Fireman's carry.
01:02:19Of course, the athletic background of Nick Nemeth,
01:02:23the incredible collegiate wrestler, Kent State Hall of Famer.
01:02:26No doubt about it.
01:02:27He brings that background to the table as well.
01:02:30So, again, outside of their accomplishments within pro wrestling,
01:02:33there was an athletic pedigree between these two that should not be ignored.
01:02:47Oh, able to drop Nemeth.
01:02:52A rare one-upsman in straight wrestling there from Joe Hendry over Nick Nemeth.
01:03:02Oh, and a straight drop kick by Nick Nemeth.
01:03:06Let's not forget, the wanted man is to show off.
01:03:11And the man who tries to steal the show every time he goes out there.
01:03:15One of the most decorated champions that exists in the world of professional wrestling right now.
01:03:21And Hendry answering with some physicality of his own.
01:03:26Off the ropes.
01:03:29Trying to quicken the pace here.
01:03:31Oh, and Nemeth hit with that knee right to the face.
01:03:38Hendry having answers for Nemeth each step of the way here.
01:03:42And here's the strength of Hendry.
01:03:46Oh, he's trying to get Nemeth up there for that stalling suplex.
01:03:48And a sleeper attempt here by Nemeth.
01:03:51This is dangerous.
01:03:52This is a bad place to be in this early in the matchup.
01:03:57Hendry was trying to get all the blood to rush to the head of Nemeth with that stalling suplex.
01:04:01Now the wanted man trying to put Hendry to sleep.
01:04:05Cut off the blood flow.
01:04:07Squeeze all of it out of the head of Hendry now.
01:04:09You're right.
01:04:10Oh, wait.
01:04:14Whoa!
01:04:15Look at the strength.
01:04:18252 pounds of pure motivation.
01:04:21What a counter.
01:04:29Down goes Nemeth.
01:04:35All that strength on display from Joe Hendry.
01:04:43Wait a second.
01:04:44Oh, God.
01:04:45Come on.
01:04:46He's got a ticket, Tom.
01:04:47That's a paying customer right there.
01:04:49Ryan Nemeth was ejected from the ringside area, but he's purchased a ticket, and he's getting a seat amongst the
01:04:57fans.
01:04:57Oh, thank God.
01:04:58You know, somebody held one back for him in this capacity crowd here.
01:05:01It pays to know people in this business.
01:05:04Found a loophole.
01:05:06Santino Morello's directive.
01:05:08Oh!
01:05:09DDT there by Nick Nemeth.
01:05:10Here's the cover.
01:05:11Shoulders down.
01:05:12Oh, what a kick out by Hendry.
01:05:14Hendry's got to be careful here.
01:05:16A lot of close two counts.
01:05:18You saw it.
01:05:19That caught the attention of Hendry when Ryan Nemeth came out here.
01:05:21Little things like that can cost big in a matchup like this.
01:05:30Crossface by Nemeth.
01:05:34Twisting and grinding at the neck and shoulder joint of Joe Hendry here.
01:05:40Ooh, that makes things like the standing ovation a lot more painful, a lot more difficult to execute.
01:05:54This thing you and I have talked about with Hendry on this meteoric rise.
01:05:58His physical strength is one thing, but it's his mental fortitude.
01:06:01He just doesn't quit.
01:06:05Can't take that away from him.
01:06:07He's gone through a lot of obstacles.
01:06:09Sucks that flip.
01:06:10Shoulders down to win the title.
01:06:11Kick out.
01:06:12So close there.
01:06:13Here we go again.
01:06:14Trying to surprise Nemeth.
01:06:16Great speed there by Hendry.
01:06:18Look at this.
01:06:18Where we're going.
01:06:19More roll-ups.
01:06:20Rolling through.
01:06:21Here's a cover and a kick out by the champion.
01:06:25Taking out Nick Ney and now a neck.
01:06:27Breaker by Nemeth to slow up Hendry.
01:06:33Well, Nick Nemeth got the better of the end of that exchange,
01:06:35but one of the telltale signs of success in this business
01:06:39is the classic, are you coachable?
01:06:41Can you learn?
01:06:42I've got to give it to Joe Hendry.
01:06:44He's learned from his past matches with people like Nick Nemeth.
01:06:47Giving up that mat game.
01:06:49He's upping his wrestling game.
01:06:51Josh Alexander at Victory Road in San Antonio.
01:06:54Similar story there.
01:06:55He learned from that encounter as well.
01:06:59Oh, now a shot to the heart by Nick Nemeth to hold on to the championship.
01:07:03Oh, and a kick out.
01:07:04And I think Nick Nemeth is feeling a little bit too arrogant at this point in the matchup.
01:07:09We've heard him talk in various segments over the last several weeks.
01:07:13He's always told Joe Hendry, like, hey, I respect you.
01:07:16I know you have a lot of people who believe in you.
01:07:18That's great.
01:07:19But he's so confident in that he is that best wrestler walking the planet today
01:07:24that, yeah, maybe that's leaking out a little bit.
01:07:27Maybe that's coming.
01:07:27Hopefully, it does not backfire for the wanted man.
01:07:30You can understand Nemeth bringing that confidence with them too.
01:07:33You have to.
01:07:34Two-time WWE World Heavyweight Champion.
01:07:37Six Intercontinental titles.
01:07:38Former AAA Mega Champion.
01:07:40Former IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion.
01:07:43A litany more championships in WWE.
01:07:47And he's reigned now for 183 days as the TNA World Champion.
01:07:52In this game, in this sport, I would much rather, and I think anybody in the back
01:07:58would much rather come into a contest maybe a little overconfident
01:08:02than have one second of doubt because that one second can cost you everything.
01:08:09And Nemeth, oh, it feels like he's got all the time in the world.
01:08:12Oh, but right to the back.
01:08:13Here's the cover trying to retain and a kick out.
01:08:16There's Ryan Nemeth, the little brother of Nick Nemeth.
01:08:20He's watching his big brother, Tom, as if he hasn't let you know
01:08:25that Nick Nemeth is his big brother.
01:08:27Yeah, we got that.
01:08:29Look, he's just looking out for his family.
01:08:31I can't blame a name for that.
01:08:32Just because your family doesn't want to talk to you
01:08:34doesn't mean you have to take it out of the Nemeth's.
01:08:38That's, ooh.
01:08:39Henry now, again, once again, bringing that physicality
01:08:42to the wanted man, to the TNA World Champion.
01:08:46Over a rude awakening.
01:08:47Hold on.
01:08:48Might get one right here.
01:08:49Hold on.
01:08:49Backside and a kick out.
01:08:51Drop kick by Nemeth.
01:08:53Again, right on the button.
01:09:09And dare I say, to the point you made earlier, maybe Nick Nemeth, seemingly oddly enough,
01:09:14I think, maybe, is it taking Joe Hendry as serious as he did in their first encounter
01:09:20at Bound for Glory?
01:09:21He's seen the crack in the armor, maybe, if you will, with Joe Hendry.
01:09:25And maybe feels even more confident here tonight that he has the answer to beat him again.
01:09:29Considering the tension between the two ever since Bound for Glory,
01:09:33Ryan Nemeth's involvement, I understand, but hold on.
01:09:35Oh, there!
01:09:38Things got extremely tense between these two this past Thursday on Impact.
01:09:42Joe Hendry went to hit the standing ovation on Ryan Nemeth.
01:09:45Nick Nemeth protected his little brother and super kicked Joe Hendry clean out of his boots.
01:09:50The frustration's been mounted.
01:09:52Very much.
01:09:53Very much.
01:09:53But, I mean, family defends family.
01:09:56I mean, it was instinctual.
01:09:57You saw it on the face of Nick Nemeth, too.
01:10:00Wasn't even sure he wanted to do it.
01:10:01That's just what you do with your family.
01:10:03But, either way, it's led to the breakdown in relations between these guys.
01:10:16Come on, Joe!
01:10:21Oh, now Joe Hendry with an uppercut.
01:10:24I see Nemeth there was egging him on, telling him, yeah, bring the fight to me.
01:10:30Let's do this.
01:10:31Show me what you've got.
01:10:36And Nemeth might want to be careful in this exchange.
01:10:39He's giving up about 50 pounds to Hendry.
01:10:41These uppercuts can do damage.
01:10:44Two, two, three!
01:10:49Now, Hendry taking over.
01:10:54Big clothesline and the strength of the Scotsman on display.
01:11:06Here we go.
01:11:08Looking to throw.
01:11:10And then!
01:11:11Follow a slam and a kip-up.
01:11:23And Hendry is coming alive.
01:11:27That confidence is returning.
01:11:29Dallas believes.
01:11:39Oh, wait a minute, go for the standing ovation.
01:11:42Oh, Nemeth able to point it, go for another sleeper.
01:11:45Hendry able to escape.
01:11:46Oh, no, no, was not able.
01:11:48Now kicked out of it.
01:11:49Nemeth was relentless there for a moment.
01:11:52Hendry now.
01:11:53Trying to set up for a powerbomb.
01:11:55Oh, and a straight headbutt by Nemeth.
01:11:58On a pump-up powerbomb by Hendry.
01:12:01Is that enough?
01:12:02To win the championship.
01:12:03Oh, kick out by Nemeth.
01:12:09One second away.
01:12:12From making history.
01:12:15From achieving the dream.
01:12:31And now, Nick Nemeth crawling underneath the bottom rope.
01:12:34Looked like he was looking for some safe haven there and a back elbow.
01:12:39Hold on up under the shoulders.
01:12:42A little A-A from Hendry.
01:12:45Cover to win the championship.
01:12:47Oh, and a kick out.
01:12:50Again.
01:12:52So very close.
01:12:53But now, the wanted man, Nick Nemeth, showing one of the other reasons he's been so successful.
01:13:00He's become so well-known in the world of wrestling.
01:13:02It's this resilience.
01:13:04It's this never-say-die attitude of his own.
01:13:13Straight shot there by Hendry.
01:13:15Driving Nemeth into the corner.
01:13:18This is a pivotal point in the matchup for Joe Hendry.
01:13:21You have the advantage against the TNA world champion.
01:13:24Now, you have that proverbial killer instinct.
01:13:27Can you finish?
01:13:28Can you close?
01:13:30You've got to push that advantage.
01:13:33Press it.
01:13:33Put the pedal to the metal.
01:13:36As these two fight in dangerous territory here.
01:13:40Down goes Hendry.
01:13:47Oh, Nemeth perched up top.
01:13:50Oh, the crossbody.
01:13:51But Hendry held on.
01:13:53Rolls right through.
01:13:54And now back to his feet.
01:14:00Up onto the shoulders once again.
01:14:04Oh, he's going.
01:14:05Oh, Nemeth and a Famouser.
01:14:07Are you kidding me, sir?
01:14:08Cover.
01:14:09Oh, what a kick out by Hendry.
01:14:15What a counter from the TNA world champion pop-up right into the Famouser.
01:14:23Hendry was almost down, but gets a shoulder up just in time.
01:14:27Nemeth's been on the wrong end of a few AAs in his life.
01:14:29I think he knows how to come up with a counter.
01:14:32And he did at just the right time.
01:14:36This match goes on.
01:14:50Now Nemeth back to the outside.
01:14:54Thinking of maybe trying once again to go to the top rope.
01:14:59Try something risky here.
01:15:00What the hell is Nemeth calling for?
01:15:03This is not typically in the wheelhouse of Nick Nemeth.
01:15:07And it looks like, ooh.
01:15:10Hendry saw it come and cut him off with the pass.
01:15:15Going up top.
01:15:16Oh, and a far away slam from the turnbuckles.
01:15:21Again, we talked about the confidence of Nick Nemeth.
01:15:24And dare say, wait a second.
01:15:26Oh, my God.
01:15:27Is this it?
01:15:28Is this happening?
01:15:29Frankie Kazarian with the call your shot.
01:15:32Got in the trophy.
01:15:33He talked about this matchup earlier tonight.
01:15:39Kazarian can call his shot for a TNA title match of his choosing any time, anywhere.
01:15:45Could this moment be happening?
01:15:48Wait a second.
01:15:49Sean Layfield.
01:15:50Sean Layfield involving himself in another Nemeth match.
01:15:55Carlos Lai from hell.
01:16:13Rayfield intervenes in another Nick Nemeth match.
01:16:24And one more time, as quickly as he appeared, Layfield disappears into the ether.
01:16:33Chaos in his wake.
01:16:45This sold-out crowd live in Dallas, who's fixated on one thing.
01:16:49They win.
01:16:50Nemeth and Hendry in the TNA World Championship.
01:16:53Hold on.
01:16:53Hold on.
01:16:55Look out.
01:16:56Standing ovation.
01:16:58Is this it?
01:16:59Cover.
01:17:00Cover.
01:17:00Oh, my God.
01:17:03Two.
01:17:04Two.
01:17:04Two.
01:17:05What?
01:17:06Take a look.
01:17:08The standing ovation.
01:17:10How close was this?
01:17:11How did it happen?
01:17:13No one has ever kicked out of the standing ovation.
01:17:18Oh, my God.
01:17:19Oh, my God.
01:17:23Oh, my God.
01:17:25Oh, my God.
01:17:26Oh, my God.
01:17:27Oh, my God.
01:17:28Oh, my God.
01:17:28Oh, my God.
01:17:29Oh, my God.
01:17:31Oh, my God.
01:17:32Oh, my God.
01:17:34Oh, my God.
01:17:37Henry's looking to give it one more time.
01:17:40Nemeth is back up.
01:17:41Henry going for it again.
01:17:43Nemeth escapes.
01:17:45Into the top turnbuckle.
01:17:47Super kick.
01:17:49Oh, danger zone.
01:17:51That's got to be good.
01:17:53Night.
01:17:54Henry left.
01:17:55Kicked out.
01:17:56Henry is still alive.
01:17:58How?
01:17:58Oh, my God.
01:18:00Oh, my God.
01:18:02Oh, my God.
01:18:03Oh, my God.
01:18:03Oh, my God.
01:18:05Oh, my God.
01:18:07Nick Nemeth with his opportunity here.
01:18:10A super kick.
01:18:11Danger zone.
01:18:13Combination.
01:18:14And somehow Henry stays in this fight.
01:18:19Nick Nemeth can't believe it.
01:18:22Nobody can.
01:18:23I can't.
01:18:32Nobody can.
01:18:34I can't.
01:18:40And now turning up the band for one more super kick.
01:18:45Trying to end Henry's night.
01:18:47Oh, my God.
01:18:49Another fall-away slam.
01:18:51What a resurgence here from Henry.
01:19:00Joe's calling for it.
01:19:02Is this it?
01:19:03Is this it?
01:19:03It's outstanding.
01:19:05Oh, cover.
01:19:06Do you believe?
01:19:07We have always believed.
01:19:13Here is your winner and new TNA World Champion, Joe Andre.
01:19:35Do you believe in Joe Andre?
01:19:41Do you believe in Joe Andre?
01:19:55Everyone here in Dallas and around the world, I can't fight it.
01:20:02You have to believe in Joe Andre as much as he's believed in himself to climb to this mountaintop.
01:20:11Joe Andre, Joe Andre, Joe Andre.
01:20:52And now Joe Andre celebrates with his parents at ringside.
01:20:57What a moment.
01:21:03But let's not forget, Joe Andre said it a million times.
01:21:08Joe Andre has gotten to this point in his career because of the people.
01:21:15Because they believed.
01:21:20Joe Henry is your TNA World Champion.
01:21:25Because he believed.
01:21:27And because you believed.
