IMPACT News: Special Ref For Knockouts Title, Ultimate X Now Set For Homecoming
A look at the updated card for Homecoming after last night’s IMPACT on Pop!
We are just over three weeks out from IMPACT Wrestling’s next pay-per-view extravaganza, Homecoming, taking place on January 6th from the Nashville Fairgrounds, also known as The Asylum.
Heading into last night’s episode of IMPACT on Pop, a number of matches had already been announced for the event, but not all of the details had been officially revealed just yet. In a rematch from Bound For Glory, Taya Valkyrie will get another shot at Tessa Blanchard’s Knockouts Title, but this time there will be a twist. Last night’s IMPACT on Pop saw a change made, as there will be a Special Referee for round two at Homecoming when IMPACT Hall Of Famer Gail Kim dons the official’s stripes.
Also last night, the final two spots in the Ultimate X for the vacant X-Division Championship were also up for grabs. In the first bout, Rich Swann solidified his opportunity with a win over Dave Crist. Later on in the show, Trevor Lee and Trey Miguel clashed in the final qualifier that saw Lee fall just short. Here’s a look at the updated lineup for IMPACT Wrestling’s Homecoming, which you can catch live on pay-per-view Sunday, January 6th at 8PM EST:
IMPACT World Championship
(C) Johnny Impact vs. Brian Cage
IMPACT Knockouts Championship- Special Referee Gail Kim

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.
