The following are spoilers from Friday's TNA Impact TV taping in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania -- the first of two nights of tapings from the 2300 Arena.
All matches taking place this weekend will be seen over the next four weeks on TNA Impact and Xplosion as the company closes in on their Rebellion pay-per-view in Las Vegas on April 20th.
The big news coming out of the taping was the return of both former Digital Media Champion Matt Cardona and Steph De Lander. De Lander made her debut for the company in January 2023 and was part of the Down Under tour last summer while Cardona last appeared at last October's Bound for Glory gauntlet match.
De Lander won the second-ever 8-4-1 match to earn a Knockouts title shot against Jordynne Grace at Rebellion -- a rematch from last January that Grace won.
