With Sacrifice just eight nights away, there’s no telling what might happen on an all-new TNA iMPACT! this Thursday at 8/7c on AXS TV and 8:30pm ET on YouTube for Insiders!

The stage was set at No Surrender as Moose retained the TNA World Championship over Alex Shelley in a brutal No Surrender Rules match. Meanwhile, Eric Young became the new #1 Contender to the TNA World Championship when he defeated his former friend and ally, Frankie Kazarian. With the TNA World Title clash between Moose and EY already official for Sacrifice on March 8th, the battle will begin this Thursday. The System will once again compete in six-man tag team action as they face off against Eric Young and the TNA World Tag Team Champions, ABC!

For the first time since 2005, an X-Division Championship match was the main event of a TNA pay-per-view event when Chris Sabin defended against Mustafa Ali at No Surrender. Following a hard-fought battle, it was Ali who reigned supreme in his TNA debut to become the new X-Division Champion, bringing an end to Sabin’s history-making reign. This Thursday, a new era begins as Ali will hold his official X-Division Championship Inauguration Ceremony!

Last Friday on Countdown to No Surrender, the Speedball Mountain duo of Mike Bailey and Trent Seven were well on their way to victory over the Rascalz when Steve Maclin appeared out of nowhere and delivered a chop block to Bailey. The attack allowed the Rascalz to steal the victory after Wentz capitalized off the distraction and forced Bailey to submit. Maclin must face the innovative offense of a vengeful Bailey this Thursday!

After making a splash in the Knockouts Ultimate X match at Hard To Kill, Xia Brookside has become the prime target of former Knockouts World Champion, Tasha Steelz. The two have traded wins on recent episodes of iMPACT!, leading to a heated rubber match this Thursday. Not only will their personal rivalry be settled, but the stakes are higher than ever as the winner will receive a Knockouts World Championship opportunity against Jordynne Grace, March 8th at Sacrifice!

For weeks, AJ Francis has been a thorn in the side of Rich Swann. After Swann and many other members of the TNA roster made it clear that they didn’t want to be associated with him, Francis decided to make an example out of Swann by costing him his match against Jason Hotch. But when Francis joined Deaner for a 2-on-1 assault on another one of his enemies, Joe Hendry, it was Swann who evened the odds and sent Francis retreating. This Thursday, Francis makes his TNA in-ring debut as he joins Deaner in tag team action against Rich Swann and Joe Hendry!

After making his triumphant return to TNA Wrestling last year, Jake Something has continued to elevate his game. Before Chris Sabin and Mustafa Ali clashed for the X-Division Championship at No Surrender, Something made it clear that his next goal is to capture the X-Division Championship for the first time ever. This Thursday, Jake’s journey will begin but standing in his way will be another competitor who has his sights set on the gold, Laredo Kid!
