TNA Names Men's Ultimate X Field; Start Times Differ

The quick version

  • TNA named the Men's Ultimate X field on the Nov. 12 Impact: BDE, Joe Alonzo, John Skyler, KC Navarro, Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann. The winner earns an X Division Title shot.
  • The World X-Cup is two three-way matches, per TNA and Fightful, not the two four-ways we reported earlier. Fightful's lineup names six wrestlers.
  • TNA's posts disagree on when Destination X starts. Its Nov. 9 release implies a 7 PM ET pay-per-view, its Nov. 12 post says 6 PM ET.

TNA named the six men in the Men's Ultimate X match on Thursday Night Impact on Thursday, Nov. 12, 2026, three days before Destination X. The episode came from the Dothan Civic Center in Dothan, Alabama, and aired on AMC. The names come from TNA's own results post for the show, which we read in full. Fightful and Wrestling Inc list the same six. Destination X is Sunday, Nov. 15, at the Edmonton EXPO Centre in Edmonton, Alberta.

The Men's Ultimate X field

BDE, Joe Alonzo, John Skyler, KC Navarro, Cedric Alexander and Rich Swann will climb for a shot at the X Division Championship, per TNA. TNA says that for the first time ever there are two Ultimate X matches. The women's match has Tasha Steelz, M By Elegance, Xia Brookside, Shotzi Blackheart, Gabby Forza and Jada Stone, in the same three reports. Its winner gets a future Knockouts World Championship shot, per TNA.

The card now

Fightful's updated lineup, which matches TNA's post where TNA names a match:

  • TNA World Championship: Leon Slater (c) vs. Trey Miguel
  • TNA Knockouts World Championship: Indi Hartwell (c) vs. Shayna Baszler
  • TNA World Tag Team Championship, three-way: The Nemeths (c) vs. syX vs. Matt Hardy and Moose
  • Women's Ultimate X and Men's Ultimate X, fields above
  • World X-Cup final: to be decided
  • Pre-show: Amir Jordan vs. The Home Town Man vs. Ricky Sosa, and Fabian Aichner vs. Jason Hotch vs. Rey Horus (World X-Cup qualifiers)

The X-Cup is smaller than we reported

Our earlier stories on Sosa and Aichner, the Home Town Man and Amir Jordan counted eight entrants in two four-way matches, based on Fightful and Ringside News at the time. TNA's Nov. 12 post calls the qualifiers a pair of three-ways. Fightful's lineup shows six wrestlers across them. That makes the earlier count out of date.

Who is hurt

TNA's injury report on the same show says X Division Champion Amazing Red is out of action with neck and head injuries. Eddie Edwards has lower back issues and has been cleared to compete, and Jeff Hardy remains out after the syX Slaughterhouse match, per TNA. The post gives no return date for Red. TNA's Nov. 5 injury report ruled BDE out with back and neck injuries. We found no TNA update on him since, and TNA has not said whether he is cleared.

Two start times

TNA's Nov. 9 release gives local times: doors at 3 PM, the pre-show at 4 PM and the pay-per-view at 5 PM. Edmonton is on Mountain Time, so that is 6 PM and 7 PM ET, our conversion, as in our start times story. TNA's Nov. 12 results post says the Countdown starts live and free at 5 PM ET and Destination X goes live on TNA+ and PPV.com at 6 PM ET. That is an hour earlier, and 6 PM ET is 4 PM in Edmonton, which would match the 4:00 PM local start on TNA's home page. The Nov. 9 release puts the pre-show at 4 PM local. TNA has not said which is right. Check TNA+ or PPV.com before Sunday.

Also on the show

Nic Nemeth beat Elijah, per TNA's results. Director of Authority Santino Marella had said a loss would cost Nemeth his contractual rematch for the TNA World Championship, per TNA and Fightful, so he keeps it. TNA's account says the finish came after a low blow with the rope and Dangerzone. Fightful's results list did not include the match when we read it. Our earlier story on the card change left that result open.

How we know

Source: TNA Wrestling's own results post for the Nov. 12 episode, read in full on TNA's site, with Fightful's lineup and results and Wrestling Inc's report, all read in full. We did not watch the episode or contact TNA. Nothing in this story is a rumor. The start-time difference is between two TNA posts and is not resolved.
