At No Surrender, Eric Young gained a measure of revenge on his former friend and ally when he defeated Frankie Kazarian in a #1 Contenders match. Later in the night, Moose retained the TNA World Championship over Alex Shelley in the first-ever No Surrender Rules match that saw KUSHIDA throw in the towel on behalf of Shelley. But as the old saying goes, there’s no rest for the weary. On March 8th, TNA Wrestling returns to TNA+ for Sacrifice and the main event has been locked in: Moose will defend the TNA World Championship against TNA Original Eric Young in a first-time-ever matchup. Since winning the title at Hard To Kill, Moose has proven that there’s no beating The System – but if there’s anyone that can disrupt the landscape of TNA, it’s a former multi-time TNA World Champion in his own right, Eric Young. Who will be willing to make the ultimate Sacrifice in order to leave Windsor, Ontario as the TNA World Champion?
Ever since Nic Nemeth’s earth-shattering arrival at Hard To Kill, Steve Maclin has made it his mission to rid TNA Wrestling of the “Wanted Man”. Following an assault at the hands of Maclin in Puerto Rico, Nemeth has been absent from TNA – until now. On the first iMPACT! after No Surrender, Nemeth confronted Maclin in a video message, revealing that he’s been competing in Japan and has even become the IWGP Global Heavyweight Champion. But now, Nemeth is on his way back to TNA – and he’s coming after Maclin! At Sacrifice, Maclin has the opportunity he’s been waiting for, a chance to end Nemeth once and for all – but can he get the job done? Or will Nemeth continue his momentous rise to the top?
At No Surrender, Jordynne Grace remained Knockouts World Champion in a hard-fought victory over Gisele Shaw. Less than one week later, a new #1 Contender was set to be crowned in the rubber match between two heated rivals, Tasha Steelz and Xia Brookside. But when the match ended in a double countout, Jordynne’s next challenger became a mystery – until the “Juggernaut” made this blockbuster announcement: At Sacrifice, Jordynne Grace will put her Knockouts World Title on the line against not one but two challengers as she defends against both Tasha Steelz and Xia Brookside. Steelz is no stranger to being champion, having held the Knockouts World Title for over 100 days. Meanwhile, Brookside is looking to capture the gold for the first time in her young career. Three will walk in but only one can leave as champion!
After the headline-making news that Hammerstone has signed with TNA Wrestling, we now know who his first opponent will be as an official member of the roster. At Sacrifice, it’s Alexander vs. Hammerstone 2 as these powerhouses run it back following their stellar encounter this past January. Hammerstone took Alexander to his absolute limit at Hard To Kill and there’s no doubt that he will be looking to make a statement in his return to TNA. Meanwhile, Alexander is poised to reclaim the TNA World Championship and a win over Hammerstone would keep his wave of momentum alive. Who is willing to make the ultimate Sacrifice?
Mustafa Ali brought change to the X-Division when he dethroned Chris Sabin in the historic main event of No Surrender – but of course, it wasn’t without the help of his loyal supporters, The Good Hands. The following week on iMPACT!, Ali’s X-Division Championship Inauguration Ceremony was crashed by Sabin, who brought backup in the form of longtime allies KUSHIDA and Kevin Knight. At Sacrifice, revenge is in the air as Ali teams with John Skyler and Jason Hotch to battle Sabin, KUSHIDA and Knight in a huge six-man tag team showdown.
Stay tuned for more Sacrifice news and match announcements.
