IMPACT Wrestling Shot An Alternate Ending To Bound For Glory

Impact Wrestling recently wrapped up their last tapings for the year, having taped enough to finish 2020. It has now been revealed the company shot multiple endings for top angles to prevent them from being booked into a corner if top stars leave the company.

It wasn’t the only time the company has done that.

Tommy Dreamer had Zachary Wentz as a guest on his House of Hardcore podcast, and he talked about the ending of Bound For Glory. Wentz, like his Rascalz teammates Trey Miguel and Dezmond Xavier, were front and center celebrating the World Title victory for Rich Swann, but Dreamer said they had a second shot filmed as well.

“We had to shoot two finishes for the Ace Austin thing after Tessa had left and we also had a moment where when Rich Swann won the title. He wins the title and The Rascalz were the first people there because of how much you guys have a relationship with Rich and we are also generally happy when someone is celebrated as the champion. Rich overcame so much. We wins the title, we go off the pay-per-view, but we still…because you never know when we’re going to show the clips, you guys held him up in the air because we’re proud. I literally see this and I’m like, ‘alright, we have to get another shot. You guys have to put him down, because you’re leaving, and Eddie [Edwards] and Willie [Mack], pick him up. You guys might not be here, so then we can’t use that shot.'”

Wentz did note that the social media photos used during the celebration still featured the now departed trio instead of the group used in the alternate shot. However, it makes sense. The company doesn’t want to contiue to feature talent no longer contracted to them, but a company known for some of its small gaffes seemed to do that this time with their social media.

The Rascalz have already wrapped up with the company, having wrestled their final match on the November 17th IMPACT.
