Production

Background

Victory Road was an annual professional wrestling event produced by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling between 2004 and 2012. In 2013, TNA discontinued most of its monthly pay-per-view events in favor of the new pre-recorded One Night Only events. [1] Victory Road would be revived as a "One Night Only" event in 2014, [2] a special edition of Impact's weekly television series in 2017, [3] and has been a monthly special for TNA+ since the 2019 event. [4]

On June 26, 2025, it was announced that the 2025 Victory Road would take place on September 26, 2025, at Edmonton Expo Centre in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. [5]

Storylines

The event will feature several professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines. Wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Storylines are produced on TNA's weekly programs, Impact! and Xplosion . [6]

At NXT Heatwave, Ash by Elegance captured the TNA Knockouts World Championship by defeating Masha Slamovich and the defending champion, NXT wrestler Jacy Jayne, in a triple threat match, pinning Slamovich to do so. [7] Nearly two weeks later, on the September 4 live episode of TNA Impact!, Ash and The Elegance Brand (Heather by Elegance, M by Elegance, and The Personal Concierge) held a celebration in her honor, but were eventually interrupted by Slamovich. There, she revealed that she would challenge Ash for the Knockouts World Championship at Victory Road. [8] [9] [10]
