Destination X is around the corner on November 15, but that hasn’t stopped the TNA title pictures from running wild before the PPV.
One thing we know is that Leon Slater will defend the TNA World Championship against Trey Miguel in the main event of Destination X in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Trey earned the shot by winning a ladder match against other contenders.
In the
Knockouts division, Indi Hartwell won the Knockouts Championship and the Apex won the Knockouts Tag Team Championship at Bound For Glory. Those titleholders collided on Impact (Oct. 22, 2026) thanks to the power play from Daria Rae. The SUIT returned from suspension for slapping Hartwell. Indi was still in Daria’s sights, and she booked the champ into an impromptu contractual rematch against Xia Brookside. Despite wrestling in her street clothes, Hartwell overcame the challenge to prevail via Hurts Donut.
In the aftermath, Daria distracted Hartwell so Zoey Serrano and Shayna Baszler could ambush the champ. Baszler choked Hartwell out and stood tall holding the Knockouts Championship over her body. Based on basic storytelling logic in professional wrestling, it seems likely that Baszler will get a shot at Hartwell for the gold.
The depth in the Knockouts tag team division is increasing. Kiera Hogan dumped Allie to reunite with Tasha Steelz. Fire ‘n Flava are two-time tag champs in TNA. Shotzi Blackheart made a surprise appearance to save Allie, and it seems like that will be a tag team showdown.
The Elegance Brand appears to be on the fritz lately. Plus, M is focused on defending the Knockouts Television Championship against Jada Stone on the next episode of Impact.
The Nemeth brothers better keep their heads on a swivel. After winning the Call Your Shot Gauntlet, Frankie Kazarian made it clear that he wants to cash in with Avery Styles for the TNA World Tag Team Championship. Avery picked up momentum by beating Joe Alonzo in his Impact debut.
At Bound For Glory, Amazing Red was inducted into the TNA Hall of Fame, and he won the X-Division Championship. The legend’s first challenger was determined in a four-way contender bout. Cedric Alexander earned the shot after the System interfered to set Fabian Aichner on a platter. Alexander landed a moonsault to win. That title bout takes place on the next episode of Impact.
Last not not least, the Order 4 saga is officially closed. Jason Hotch put the nail in the coffin to retain the TNA International Championship over Mustafa Ali in 2 out of 3 falls. Ali got the upper hand trading roll-ups to take Fall 1. Ali overzealously hit Hotch with the title belt to give away Fall 2 via disqualification. Hotch dug deep to win Fall 3 on a GTS variation.
