Impact News: Non-Spoiler Preview For Tonight’s Impact Wrestling On PopTV

Published

on

This week’s episode of Impact Wrestling is coming off the epic fight in the woods between Eddie Edwards and Sami Callihan last week. At the end of Impact we saw that Callihan escaped and the blood feud looks to be continuing. Tonight we get the fallout from the fight in the woods, an X-Division Championship match, a No DQ Knockouts match, and we will learn the main event to Slammiversary.

Here is what’s on tap for the show tonight:

  • Kiera Hogan vs Tessa Blanchard (No Disqualification):

This is a continuation of their rivalry that began when Tessa Blanchard first came on the scene in Impact Wrestling at Redemption back in April. Tessa jumped on commentary during Hogan’s match against Taya Valykire and claimed she was better than any of the Knockouts and it was undeniable. Tessa would then go on to beat Keira Hogan in a match but then a post match beatdown lead to her losing to a returning Madison Rayne at Under Pressure. Last week Keira interrupted Tessa’s interview which lead to a fight between the two with Tessa standing tall at the end. Tonight it all comes to a head in a No DQ match, who will be the one with their hand raised after it’s all said and done?

  • Matt Sydal (c) vs Brian Cage (X-Division Championship):

This match came to be after Dezmond Xavier defeated Petey Williams for a chance to face The Machine Brian Cage in a #1 Contender’s match in which Cage was victorious in. Since coming to Impact we haven’t learned much about The Machine we have just seen him dominate and win match after match after match. Many have said that the way Impact is booking Cage is similar to the way WCW booked Goldberg. Last week Sydal tried to get Cage to forfeit his title opportunity and join him and Cage responded with an F5 to Sydal. Will Matt Sydal find the blueprint to stopping Weapon X and handing him his first defeat or will we see a new X-Division champion?

  • Eli Drake vs Moose (#1 Contender’s Match):

Last week we saw the return of The Fact of Life where Eli named the top 5 dummies of Impact. Drake would name Moose as the #1 dummy and announced they would face off next week with the winner going on to challenge Austin Aries for the world title at Salmmiversary. Who is next to challenge Aries for the gold Moose or Drake?

  • The fallout from The Fight in the Woods

All this and more will be on tap for tonight’s show. Don’t forget to checkout my live coverage beginning at the top of the show 8pm EST.

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

  • Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
  • Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
  • Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
  • Rush: 0-1, 0 points
  • Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
  • Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

 

Here are your Blue League standings!

  • Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
  • Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
  • Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
  • Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
  • Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
  • Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

 

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
