Ja’ Von’s Weekly IMPACT Wrestling YouTube Report (7/12/18)

IMPACT Wrestling this week featured oVe in a six man lucha rules tag match and Su Yung terrorizing Madison Rayne in the show closing segment.

Just yesterday I reported that the viewership for this week’s IMPACT was down this week after bouncing back from a viewership slump. You can check that out here.

Here is the breakdown for this week’s YouTube Report:

1. Austin Aries ASSAULTS Ex-NFLer DeAngelo Williams: 89K views
2. King Issues a Slammiversary Challenge to LAX: 5150 STREET FIGHT: 77K views
3. Sami Callihan & oVe vs Pentagon Jr, Fenix, & Rich Swann: 73K views
4. The Twisted Saga of Eddie Edwards & Tommy Dreamer: 64K views
5. Who is this Mysterious Knockout?: 33K views

This is very telling because we live in a day and age where people just go on YouTube or other streaming services to watch wrestling and other things. What surprises me is that the DeAngelo Williams segment is the top draw of the week. When DeAngelo was first announced, I didn’t think anything of it, but when watching it this week, it turned out to be a really good segment. This segment added another layer to the main event for Slammiversary, plus DeAngelo has challenged Aries to a match.

The LAX Civil War takes the second spot this week after coming in at the top spot last week. The OGz quickly dispatched of their opponents and King laid down the challenge to LAX for a 5150 Street Fight. The highly touted main event from this week’s Impact comes in at number three. The six man tag was everything and had people on the edge of their seats. My favorite spot of the match was the super cutter from Jake Crist to Rich Swann. The Twisted Saga of Eddie Edwards has now taken a drastic turn involving Tommy Dreamer. Eddie had now set his sights on Tommy now. Impact has been showing vignettes of a new Knockout coming soon for the past two weeks it seems like the gimmick will be surrounding a James Bond-esque gimmick.
