TNA Final Resolution 2025 delivered the kind of chaos that only a company in the middle of an invasion storyline can produce. Live from the El Paso County Coliseum in El Paso, Texas, the TNA+ special stacked six championship matches, an escalating TNA vs. NXT turf war, a major title change, a shocking betrayal in the X-Division, and the ominous arrival of The Righteous—all capped by Frankie Kazarian grinding out a gritty TNA World Title defense against JDC in what is likely JDC’s final shot at the world championship. 

By the time the show went off the air, The System had been ambushed, Stacks had knocked out his own future father-in-law Santino Marella, the tag division had a new threat staring down The Hardys, and Leon Slater stood tall over AJ Francis after Rich Swann made a career-altering decision.

Kazarian Survives JDC as NXT–TNA War Ignites

The main event was drenched in emotion and bad blood before the bell even rang. JDC, wrestling on borrowed time ahead of his planned retirement in January, came into Final Resolution desperate to make his last run count by dethroning Frankie Kazarian for the TNA World Championship. 

The match quickly spilled up the ramp and onto the stage. Kazarian ruthlessly targeted JDC’s leg, sending his knee into the steps and bending his challenger’s body in ugly angles back in the ring. JDC rallied with a somersault plancha to the floor and a flurry of offense that had the crowd surging, ultimately planting Kazarian with an Air Raid Crash for what should have been the winning pinfall—except the referee had been wiped out moments earlier. 

A second official finally slid in, but by then Kazarian had weathered the storm. When JDC missed a top-rope legdrop, Kazarian seized the opening, transitioned into the legendary Chicken Wing, and wrenched it in until JDC passed out cold. The referee called for the bell, awarding Kazarian the victory by referee stoppage and preserving his reign in cruel fashion. 

The post-match scene turned Final Resolution from a grueling title defense into a full-scale battleground. As The System came out to console JDC, the NXT “outlaws” led by Lexis King swarmed the ring, laying out Moose, Eddie Edwards and Brian Myers. King doused the TNA logo with lighter fluid, ready to torch the canvas and the company’s pride, only for Steve Maclin, Mike Santana and The Hardys to storm out and spark a wild brawl. In the chaos, Stacks leveled Director of Authority—and his future father-in-law—Santino Marella with a knockout shot, sending Final Resolution off the air on a volatile cliffhanger. 

Stacks Steals the TNA International Title for NXT

Earlier in the night, the NXT invasion scored its biggest tangible victory when Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo dethroned Steve Maclin for the TNA International Championship. Maclin fought like a man defending the literal honor of the company, mauling Stacks early and repeatedly wiping out both the challenger and Lexis King. 

But the numbers game and underhanded tactics caught up with him. After a frenetic closing stretch where Maclin nearly collided with the referee, Stacks used the distraction perfectly—cracking Maclin with King’s cane/walking stick behind the official’s back and stealing the pinfall. The visual of an NXT star leaving with TNA’s International Title, and then later standing tall in the closing melee, underlined just how fragile TNA’s grip on its own championships has become. 

Leon Slater vs. AJ Francis: X-Division Drama and Rich Swann’s Betrayal

The X-Division Championship clash between Leon Slater and AJ Francis felt like a snapshot of the modern TNA identity: high-octane, innovative, and loaded with character work and storyline consequence. Slater leaned into his speed and creativity from the opening bell, hitting dives and a Superman forearm off the steps, but Francis used his size and power to brutalize the young champion—choking him on the ropes, launching him into the buckles, and rag-dolling him around the ring. 

Interference and controversy were inevitable. BDE hit the scene to neutralize Francis’ attempt to use a steel chair, only to get chokeslammed for their trouble. Francis repeatedly flirted with cheating, including a low blow and a belt shot, while Rich Swann—ostensibly in Francis’ corner—kept getting pulled deeper into moral quicksand.

The turning point came when Francis demanded Swann finish Slater off with the X-Division Title. Swann refused, finally snapping and absolutely drilling Francis with the belt instead. Slater immediately capitalized, hitting the Swanton 450 to retain the championship in a dramatic finish that both protected Francis as a monster and cemented Slater as a gutsy, resilient champion. 

Post-match, Slater celebrated with BDE, company president Carlos Silva and the referee, while Francis was left betrayed and exposed. In one match, TNA kept its X-Division centerpiece strong, fractured FIR$T CLA$$ from within, and gave Rich Swann a defining babyface moment.

Knockouts Spotlight: Léi Yǐng Lee vs. Xia Brookside and a Dog Collar Challenge

Final Resolution was also a showcase for the Knockouts division. Léi Yǐng Lee’s first defense of the TNA Knockouts World Championship came against her Angel Warriors partner and best friend, Xia Brookside, in a technical, back-and-forth match that lived up to the emotional stakes. The two traded mirrors of each other’s offense—a stalemate of counters, dropkicks and submissions—before Brookside chained together a meteora, Russian leg sweep and Octopus stretch in a late surge. 

Lee battled back, hitting a superplex and, after a series of counters and near falls, finished Brookside with a spinning facebuster to retain the title. The post-match embrace between champion and challenger reinforced the story of mutual respect… until Dani Luna hit the ring and blew everything up, blindsiding both women. Indi Hartwell quickly followed, reigniting her feud with Luna in a wild pull-apart brawl that ended with the announcement of a Dog Collar Match between Luna and Hartwell this Thursday on iMPACT!. 

Elsewhere in the division, The IInspiration (Cassie Lee & Jessie McKay) once again proved why they sit atop the Knockouts tag scene. With Ash by Elegance watching from commentary and the rest of the Elegance Brand looming, Tessa Blanchard and Victoria Crawford tried to chop down McKay’s leg and steal the titles. Interference backfired, though, and the champions survived the chaos, hitting the IIdolizer on Crawford to retain. The match kept the belts stable while deepening the web of rivalries around the Knockouts Tag Team Championship. 

The Hardys Retain as The Righteous Arrive

The TNA World Tag Team Championship defense pitted The Hardys against NXT’s towering duo Tyson DuPont & Tyriek Igwe (The High Raze), who jumped Matt and Jeff before the bell following a cryptic message on the screen: “The gods walk among mortals.” 

DuPont and Igwe leaned on their size and aggression, isolating Jeff with chinlocks and double-team offense until he finally created enough space to tag Matt, who rattled off Side Effects on both challengers. After a dramatic near fall off a superplex and splash, the champions rallied, Matt hit the Twist of Fate and Jeff sealed the deal with a Swanton Bomb on DuPont to keep the titles in TNA’s hands. 

Then the lights went out again. When they came back up, Vincent and Dutch—The Righteous—stood on the stage, their presence confirming the ominous “gods” vignette from earlier in the night. They stared down The Hardys to an unsure crowd reaction, effectively planting the flag for what looks to be the next major tag title program heading into Genesis. 

Rascalz vs. Order 4: Mayhem, a Horse, and a Statement Win

If any match embodied the new, wild energy of TNA’s cross-promotional era, it was The Rascalz vs. Order 4. Trey Miguel, Zachary Wentz, Dezmond Xavier & Myron Reed turned the bout into a kinetic highlight reel, but Agent Zero’s freakish power and Mustafa Ali’s scheming repeatedly swung momentum back to Order 4. 

Tasha Steelz’s ringside meddling, Myron Reed’s insane aerials, and Agent Zero tossing bodies like rag dolls gave the match an almost comic-book feel. The turning point came when Elijah appeared and literally hog-tied Ali to the back of a horse, dragging him out of the arena and leaving Order 4 effectively down a man. In the chaos, the Rascalz overwhelmed John Skyler with rapid-fire offense—Destroyer on the floor, a barrage of top-rope attacks and a slingshot 450 from Reed—for the emphatic pin. 

It was a definitive statement that, in TNA’s home arena, the Rascalz aren’t just surviving the invasion—they’re thriving in it.

Cardona’s Violent Christmas, Santana’s Redemption & the Pre-Show Table-Setters

Matt Cardona and Mance Warner turned their Street Fight into exactly the kind of plunder-heavy spectacle you’d expect—chairs, trash cans, doors, a sack of Cardona’s own action figures and even a screwdriver spot that nearly went horribly wrong. After Warner and Steph De Lander threw everything at him, Cardona survived the chaos and hit Radio Silence through a door to score the pin, reminding the TNA roster that “Indy God” violence is very much part of his arsenal. 

Mike Santana’s singles bout against NXT’s Charlie Dempsey felt like a quiet but important chapter in his comeback story. Battling through an arm targeted relentlessly by the technician from NXT, Santana gutted it out, chained together his signature offense and put Dempsey away with a discus lariat and frog splash combo for the win. For a man recently dethroned as world champion, it was a much-needed reassertion of momentum in front of an adoring crowd. 

On the Countdown pre-show, Cedric Alexander and Eric Young delivered a solid tone-setter, with Alexander eventually putting Young away with a brainbuster. The System then took a surprise six-man tag—an open challenge answered by Bear Bronson and the Andersons—using their System Overload finisher to get the pin and set the stage for their later role in the world title drama. 

Final Thoughts

Final Resolution 2025 felt less like a one-off special and more like a mission statement for TNA’s next chapter. The champions largely held serve—Kazarian, Lee, The Hardys, The IInspiration and Leon Slater all retained—but the landscape shifted in huge ways:

• NXT now holds the TNA International Championship thanks to Stacks.
• The TNA vs. NXT war escalated from heated to combustible with a near-arson angle and Santino Marella getting floored.
• The tag division gained a dark, compelling new act in The Righteous.
• Rich Swann’s belt shot on AJ Francis reshaped the X-Division and FIR$T CLA$$.

With Genesis and the AMC TV launch looming, Final Resolution didn’t just tie up stories—it lit fuses all over the TNA roster.
