IMPACT News: Tonight’s IMPACT Wrestling Non-Spoiler Preview (7/19/18)
Tonight’s episode of IMPACT Wrestling is the go-home show for Slammiversary. IMPACT has been building towards their biggest show of the summer and the card is shaping up nicely. All the titles will be on the line and someone will either lose their mask or hair that night.
With Slammiversary just three short days away here is the rundown for what IMPACT is advertising on the go-home show:
- Aries and Moose Confrontation
Austin Aries and Moose have been going back and forth with each other for weeks now since the match was announced. We have seen video packages of how they got into the wrestling business and their personal lives. Last week we got to hear an update on Moose’s training from hiw friend and former professional football player DeAngelo Williams. This eventually lead to Aries assaulting Williams which lead to Moose “calling into the show” and telling Aries that he will be there next week and that he has made this personal. What will happen when champion and challenger come face to face for the first and only time before their huge match at Slammiversary?
- The Prestigious One’s IMPACT Debut
Two weeks ago on IMPACT Wrestling in a backstage segment “The Prestigious One” Joe Hendry made his IMPACT debut and was introduced as Grado’s friend. Last week he accompanied Grado to the ring along eith Katerina for his match against former IMPACT World Champion Eli Drake. Drake would go on to win the match and try to flirt with Katarina before Hendry would step in. This post-match altercation lead us to tonight’s match. Hendry will be making his in-ring debut against Eli Drake. How will Hendry fare against the former world champion?
- Sami Callihan
Last week oVe defeated Pentagon Jr, Fenix, and Rich Swann in a six man lucha rules tag team match. The match was highly praised and in the end Sami Callihan was able to pick up the win for oVe. Tonight will be his last match before his mask vs. hair match with Pentagon Jr. Will this be the last time we see Sami Callihan with hair or will he add another one of Pentagon’s mask to his collection?
- Killer Kross vs. Petey Williams
Two weeks ago Killer Kross made his in-ring debut against Fallah Bahh. Kross would go on to win the match and begin a post match beatdown which lead to KM getting involved to save his partner. Unfortunately KM would suffer the same fate until Petey Williams would run down with a steel chair to make the save. Petey hasn’t forgotten about the attack backstage and is out for revenge. Will Petey get his revenge or will Killer Kross continue his reign of dominance?
- Desi Hit Squad
Last week KM and Fallah Bahh were trying to get back on the same page and be friends again when they ran into the Desi Hit Squad. Words were exchange and Gama talked down about Americans which lead KM to challenging them to a tag match for tonight. Will the Desi Hit Squad add another W to their win column or wil KM and Fallah Bahh hand them their first lost?
- Konnan addresses The OGz
Last week on IMPACT The OGz laid down a challenge to LAX in a 5150 street fight for the tag titles. Tonight Konnan will address the challenge and The OGz. What will Konnan have to say?
- Tessa Blanchard & Shotzi Blackheart vs Keira Hogan & Allie
Last week Allie defeated Shotzi Blackheart in singles action who was making her IMPACT debut. Tonight Shotzi looks to avenge her loss as she teams up with Tessa Blanchard to take on the team of Keira Hogan and Allie. Will Tessa or Allie’s team pick up the win giving either knockout momentum heading into their match this Sunday at Slammiversary?
All this and more will be on tap tonight. Who will get the last bit of momentum heading into the 16th Anniversary show known as Slammiversary?

TNA Impact on AMC Drops to 175,000 Viewers, 0.03 18-49 Rating Amid Heavy Sports Competition
TNA Thursday Night Impact averaged 175,000 viewers on AMC last week, a 17.5% decline from the previous week’s 212,000 and the lowest audience since January 22. The show posted a 0.03 rating in the key 18-49 demo, down 25% and matching its lowest demo figure on AMC since the move.
The drop coincided with stiff competition — Impact ran opposite the NFL Draft (simulcast on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network) as well as NHL and NBA playoff coverage, leaving the program tied for 70th on the primetime cable charts. Versus the prior 10-week average (0.04 rating and 240,300 viewers), last week’s show fell 25% in the demo and 27.2% in overall viewers.

Nick Hogan Open to Pursuing In-Ring Career After Viewing Hulk Hogan: Real American
Nick Hogan told the Bonus Edition of the 83 Weeks podcast that after watching the final version of Hulk Hogan: Real American he’s more open than ever to stepping into the ring if the opportunity presents itself. Hogan said he’s been knocking off ring rust, is in good shape and “would absolutely welcome” the chance to pursue an in‑ring career, and noted the docuseries — which premiered on Netflix on April 22, 2026 — helped clarify his father’s legacy.
He also praised the series for pulling back the curtain on the many facets of Hulk Hogan, from character work to charitable efforts, saying it showed how dynamic a person his father is. Nick added that the long-discussed Chris Hemsworth biopic from 2019 remains a possibility despite delays, as the documentary continues to renew interest in Hogan’s story.
