TNA will present 2025 Against All Odds PPV on TNA+ and TrillerTV this Friday from Tempe, Arizona at the Mullet Arena. Are you ready for a few predictions? Let’s roll.

TNA Champion (& WWE NXT’s) Trick Williams vs. Elijah.

Trick made it past NXT last night, and now, he’s facing the former Elias, aka Elijah. With his new allies by his side, KC Navarro and AJ Francis, everything points in the direction of the TNA Champion, Trick Williams. I don’t see any title change here.

Winner and STILL TNA Champion: Trick Williams.

TNA Knockouts Champion Masha Slamovich vs. Lee Ying Li.

This match does nothing for me. Have I mentioned recently how much of an ’80s WWE name Masha Slamovich is? Dumb name, but she’s keeping her title.

Winner and STILL TNA Knockouts Champion: Masha Slamovich.

TNA Tag Team Champions Nick and Ryan Nemeth vs. The Rascalz.

I’m ready for a change. Are you? It’d be nice to see The Rascalz, Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz, once again wearing some TNA gold. But it won’t be on this night. Look for the Ziggler Brothers, aka Nic & Ryan Nemeth, to retain.

Winners and STILL TNA World Tag Team Champions: Nic & Ryan Nemeth.

TNA International Champion Steve Maclin vs. Mance Warner.

If we have a title switch, this will be the match. Maclin is an amazing talent, but Warner is really coming across as something special. I feel that his time is now. Look for a new champion.

Winner and NEW TNA International Champion: Mance Warner.

Joe Hendry vs. Frankie Kazarian.

The comeback has begun and this is step one. I believe in Joe Hendry. I believe Joe Hendry will win.

Winner: Joe Hendry.

Santino Marella vs. NXT’s Robert Stone: Winner to become TNA Director of Authority.

This is easily the match I’m most looking forward to on this show. Santino is a comedy legend, but few play the disgruntled heel as well as Robert Stone. I’d love to see Stone win and have control of TNA, but what happens to Santino if that happens? No more R-Truth, Carlito, OR Santino? That would be just too much to handle. So, for Mr. Stone, two words for ya. THE COBRA! Santino wins.

Winner: Santino Marella.

And there you go with my predictions. Most likely, a match or two will be added for the pre-show or as a result of Impact Wrestling later tonight. If so, I’ll come back and update this. But, as for now, Thursday morning, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Let me know what you think in the comments, along with any thoughts, questions, etc. I’m Doug and I’m out of here. I’ll see you later.
