Victoria Crawford made her TNA in-ring debut on the 5/8 edition of TNA iMPACT. She picked up a win over Brittnie Brooks and post-match, Crawford’s opponent at Under Siege, Knockouts World Champion Masha Slamovich walked to the ring and knocked Crawford on the mat. Tessa Blanchard intervened and pulled Slamovich off. Director of Authority Santino Marella entered the picture and decided that on 5/15, Blanchard and Crawford are going to team up against Slamovich and a partner of her choosing. NXT Assistant General Manager Robert Stone, who’s now in a position of power at TNA, overrode Marella and named Nikkita Lyons as Slamovich’s partner.
In the main event of the program, Steve Maclin defeated Eric Young in a Dog Collar match to retain the TNA International Championship.

- #1 Contender’s Four-Way for International Title shot: Matt Cardona vs. Elijah vs. Mance Warner vs. Ace Austin
