AJ’s IMPACT Wrestling Results & Review 5/27/21

After an interesting twist to the ending of last week’s IMPACT, we have a lot to unfold. Sami Callihan to open the show, a 10 Women Knockout Tag Match, TJP and Bahh vs The Canadian Destroyer and The Walking Weapon and talking about the twist from last week, Violent By Design will address IMPACT about Calling Their Shot and becoming Tag Team Champions against FinJuice.

Also, Kojima is going to get Cozy tonight in the ring!

Results:

• TJP & Fallah Bahh vs Josh Alexander & Petey Williams- TJP wins via Mamba Splash – *** ¼
• Tasha Steelz, Kiera Hogan, Deonna Purrazzo, Kimber Lee & Susan vs Rosemary, Tenille Dashwood, Havok, Rachael Ellering & Taylor Wilde – Rosemary wins via Wing Clipper – ** ½
• Decay vs Swinger and Hernandez (w/ Alisha Edwards) – Crazzy Steve wins via Diving DDT – ** ¼
• The Good Brothers vs Moose and Sami Callihan – Good Brothers win via Magic Killer – ***

Review:

Sami kicks it off by sitting in the ring and talking about the BS that Kenny Omega is giving, basically saying that they can plan for the others but can’t plan for him and calls Kenny Omega out… until Moose hears enough and comes out. Moose tells Sami all he is doing is complaining and to get out of Moose’s business. Sami says that Moose is amazing but is too out of control so that’s why Sami got attacked at Under Siege. The Good Brothers come out and kind of fluffs Moose the whole time, saying they are for Moose in the whole plan. Moose plays along until he pelts Doc Gallows and Sami captures Karl to attempt a piledriver.

In a rare instance of @TheDonCallis throwing around his EVP authority, he's made @TheMooseNation and @TheSamiCallihan vs. @MachineGunKA and @The_BigLG in our MAIN EVENT. #IMPACTonAXSTV pic.twitter.com/umx1j6xiI4

They escape and go to Don asking for a tag match against them.

TJP & Fallah Bahh vs Josh Alexander & Petey Williams-

Bahh uses his size against the X Division Champion at first but uses his speed and technical aspect to cut the big man down, tagging Petey in. Frequent tags from TJP and Bahh but to no avail once Josh Alexander comes in and disrupts everything for the momentum change and beating the big boy down and continue until Fallah gets a head of steam against the Canucks. TJP comes in like a house of fire as Petey and Josh get knocked down momentarily. Josh tags himself in and do small call backs to their matches in the past but, more tags from Josh and Petey but Fallah comes in to spoil the party and stops Petey Williams fails to hit the Canadian Destroyer and while Josh and Petey try to fight Fallah, they fail and TJP hits the Mamba Splash on the X Division Champion.

Morrisey has a sit down and… kind of peels the curtain back on what happened to him in the past with the seizure and says nobody is help and nobody is anyone’s friend in real life.

.@TheCaZXL had some EXPLOSIVE words for the wrestling industry after he felt abandoned and betrayed by those around him. #IMPACTonAXSTV @MeanGiaMiller pic.twitter.com/3lnT9IjFT9

Ten Knockout Tag Team Match-

They had an interview before and Taylor Wilde was unable to show for some reason so Rachael says that Jordynne can do it so Grace replaces Wilde.

Havok starts off and takes it to Kimber, Susan and Kiera Hogan until the tag is made to Ellering and takes it to both Tasha and Kiera for the time being until Tenille tags in and tags Grace in and now switching to the favor of the other team because the ref though the outside help was getting too much. Kiera and Tasha take it to Grace but after some separation, Rosemary comes in and takes it to Kiera. Susan comes in and now chaos ensues as we get a Tower of Power spot (We Balai HATE THE SPOT with a passion) and now the Virtuosa comes in with Ellering coming in and tags Jordynne with some double offense and more and more come into play.

Rosemary tags herself during the chaos and lands the victory for her team, pinning the Knockout’s Champion.

Eric Young and the rest of VBD are out talking that everything they do is by design including adding Rhino for his Trophy to call his shot and making Rhino the War Machine again. Kojima’s music hits and he goes up to Joe Doering and saying “Against All Odds” for a match.

VBD confirms the match with Kojima and Doering and Crazzy Steve walks in and kind of gets in the head of Deaner.

Decay vs Swinger and Hernandez-

Decay are taking to the Swingman early on, beating him down the whole match until Hernan- daddy (as Swinger says) gets tagged in and they take over on Crazzy Steve. Black Tarous comes in and steamrolls Swinger but Hernandez comes to break it up. Some goofiness in the ring, Swinger goes for… idk what. A Swinger Destroyer maybe? Ah it gets countered and he loses easily as the nutjobs win the match.

The Good Brothers vs Moose and Sami Callihan-

Sami starts the fight off against Karl Anderson and things are going great… until Moose gets tagged in and scoops Karl first then Sami on top of Karl as they get a little argumentative with each other as Karl rolls out to gather himself with the Big LG. Sami tags himself back in to fight Karl even more. When Gallows comes in, he takes it to Sami and gets a massive advantage and beat the former champion down. As Gallows gets predictable and separates himself from Gallows and tags Moose, Moose comes in with fire and intensity but when setting up for the Spear, Callihan tags himself in and gets in Moose’s face. We know that doesn’t fly with either guy and they fight each other to the point that they cost each other the match with the Magic they had before, shot down and killed.

Final Thoughts

It was a good show, nothing super over the top or out of the ordinary. Just a normal show, tying in story, furthering story and maybe giving us some matches down the line, especially with the pinfalls. Kojima makes his presence known and runs back a legendary feud with Joe Doering for Against All Odds, we have some title matches next week with the Knockout’s Tag and X Division Championship on Before the Impact. It’s looking to be actually good next week and who knows much more could come out of it.

…probably because I didn’t have to hear Kenny tonight… that might be why I enjoyed it. Still sad no Steiner Math.
