3 articles · Updated · Fox News · Jun 28

Summary

  • Nic Nemeth ended Mike Santana’s nearly year-long title run at Slammiversary, pinning him after a final Danger Zone to claim his second TNA World Championship.
  • Ryan Nemeth’s early interference helped swing the match, distracting the referee long enough for Nic Nemeth to use the Call Your Shot Gauntlet trophy before surviving Santana’s late counters.
  • Santana stayed alive through superkicks and an earlier Danger Zone but faded after kicking out of Nemeth’s latest combination, falling into position for the finishing move.
  • The win puts Nemeth back atop TNA for the first time since his previous reign began at Slammiversary 2024, with a likely Santana rematch looming before Lockdown in a few weeks.
