Just nine nights away from Rebellion, don’t miss an all-new TNA iMPACT! this Thursday at 8/7c on AXS TV and 8:30pm ET on YouTube for Insiders!

The next chapter in the chilling rivalry between PCO and Kon will be written this Thursday. For months, these two monsters have been tearing each other apart all over the iMPACT! Zone. At No Surrender, Kon tried to end PCO’s career when he handcuffed him to the entrance tunnel and brutalized him with a steel chair. Two weeks later at Sacrifice, PCO exacted a measure of revenge in a wild No Disqualifications match. But tensions reached an all-time high when Kon cost PCO the Digital Media Championship against Crazzy Steve. Now, it has all come down to this as the “French-Canadian Frankenstein” and the “Baddest Man in TNA” are trapped in isolation for 24 hours with no food, no water and no light before clashing in one of TNA Wrestling’s most infamous match types, Monster’s Ball!

With his TNA World Championship defense against “Wanted Man” Nic Nemeth looming at Rebellion, Moose looks to make a statement this Thursday. Standing across the ring from him will be Trent Seven, who alongside “Speedball” Mike Bailey will challenge The System’s Brian Myers and Eddie Edwards for the TNA World Tag Team Titles at the spring pay-per-view extravaganza. Battle lines were drawn when The System targeted Nemeth and Speedball Mountain, leading to the two championship showdowns. Who will gain momentum on the road to Rebellion?

In a shocking turn of events, Steph De Lander made her triumphant return to TNA Wrestling just two weeks ago, pinning Rosemary in the first-ever Knockouts 8-4-1 match. Of course, it wasn’t without the help of her longtime ally, Matt Cardona, who blindsided Rosemary with Radio Silence. With that victory, De Lander has earned a coveted Knockouts World Title opportunity against reigning champion Jordynne Grace. That match will take place on April 20th at Rebellion but first, the two Knockouts must sign on the dotted line this Thursday!

After falling to Frankie Kazarian in singles competition, Ace Austin and Chris Bey were confronted by one of TNA Wrestling’s newest duos, AJ Francis and Rich Swann. Now known as Fir$t Cla$$, Swann joined forces with Francis after turning his back not only on his ally Joe Hendry, but on the TNA fans as well. Now Fir$t Cla$$ is out to make a name for themselves in the tag team division as they square off with former TNA World Tag Team Champions, ABC. Who will move up the rankings in the stacked tag team division?

Laredo Kid was originally scheduled to challenge Crazzy Steve for the Digital Media Championship at Sacrifice. However, travel issues prevented Kid from appearing at the event. During an emotional sit-down interview with Tom Hannifan, Kid spoke on a life-threatening injury that he suffered in 2022, which inspired him to never give up on his goals. Meanwhile, Steve has been on a violent rampage as Digital Media Champion, disposing of top stars such as Tommy Dreamer, Rhino, Joe Hendry and PCO. What will happen when Crazzy Steve and Laredo Kid finally collide for the Digital Media Title?​
