Another episode of “TNA Impact” is in the books, with this installment having a particularly memorable ending: the Wicked Garden match pitting Matt and Jeff Hardy against The Righteous once again. From an aesthetic standpoint, it was one of the more unique things TNA has done in quite a while, and we’ll have more to say about it below. TNA Wrestling

The main event of “TNA Impact” saw the Righteous and the Hardys fight again, this time doing something a little differently in a Wicked Garden match.

The bout was the average plunder match with a floral twist, barbed wire and petals adorning the ropes while wire-wrapped trellis sat in each corner. Hand rakes were also made use of to bring a crimson touch to the bout that wound up as chaotic as one would come to expect a Hardys plunder match to be. It was just a fun time that played into the idea that the Righteous were looking to bring this extreme (and Broken) side out of the Hardys.

To what end is not entirely clear, but while it continues to yield matches like these, there is at least some enjoyment to be had. All four men were bleeding buckets as the match went on, and after Matt Hardy was sent through some trellis in the corner, simultaneously catching Jeff Hardy while he was perched on the ropes, Dutch and Vincent tied Jeff up in the ropes. Vincent tried to put a latex glove on, rather hilariously if unintentionally ripping it in the process, as he introduced a flower into the mix. And then shoved it in Jeff’s mouth and forced him to ingest it.

Jeff was then shown to be struggling with the effects of the flower, convulsing, foaming at the mouth, and collapsing before Vincent said that it was Lily of the Valley. The same plant Walter White uses for poison in “Breaking Bad” an an inventive prop to bring into the match considering the setting. That removed Jeff from the situation as Dutch and Vincent finished the match with Matt Hardy. But the final twist came after the bell, the lights going out and returning to show the Hardys having disappeared. So the feud will continue, and once again, so long as it continues to be as bizarre as it is entertaining, it’s hard to complain.
