While the appearances have yet to air, multiple NXT talents made surprise appearances at the TNA IMPACT tapings from the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia over the weekend. Jordynne Grace's open challenge was answered by Izzi Dame, with Grace ultimately successfully defending the TNA Knockouts World Championship.
