IMPACT Wrestling Preview — Tag Titles On The Line, Knockouts Match, 2 of 3 Falls Match, More — 10/12/23
—BEFORE THE IMPACT—
Alan Angels vs Laredo Kid
Laredo Kid was last on IMPACT-adjacent Tv when he teamed with Black Taurus against Sami Callihan & Rich Swann and fell short of victory on the 9/28 episode of Before The IMPACT (BTI).
Alan Angels won an Ultimate X
Match on night 1 of the IMPACT1000 show on 9/14. Angels would go on to cash in his Ultimate X victory and challenge Sabin for the X Division Title the very next week on 9/21 for night 2 of IMPACT1000. Even though Angels fell short, this was a really good match. Angels is also set to take on Samuray Del Sol at the Bound For Glory Fallout TV tapings on 10/22.
——MAIN CARD——
2 out of 3 Falls Match
-Eddie Edwards (w/Alisha) vs Frankie Kazarian
IMPACT put out a hype video for the match via their social media Twitter account.
Frankie Kazarian and Eddie Edwards go head to head yet again in a 2 of 3 Falls “Killer IMPACT” match. It wasn’t made clear what that entails, but the match should be interesting. These two have been battling for literal months and have both taken a few losses and victories along the way. Will we finally see the end of this saga, or is it going to keep going longer? We’ll have to tune in to find out.
Tasha Steelz (w/Deonna Purrazzo) vs Courtney Rush (w/Jessicka)
Tasha Steelz returned to IMPACT as a surprise at night 1 of the IMPACT1000 on 9/14 to team with one of the groups of Knockouts. The match took place during night 2 of the event, and one notable thing was Tasha getting swatted by Awesome Kong. Last week on the 10/5 IMPACTonAXSTV episode, Tasha defeated one half of the current IMPACT Knockouts Tag Team champions, Killer Kelly, after Deonna Purrazzo grabbed Kelly’s boot from ringside and caused a distraction. This allowed Tasha to attack Kelly from behind and secured the victory.
The last singles match that Courtney Rush took part in was the 8/31 IMPACTonAXSTV episode where the company held a #1 contender Battle Royal for the Knockouts World Title. Alisha Edwards won the match.
Rush was also teaming with Jessicka on the 9/21 episode of BTI when they battled the current IMPACT Tag Team Champions, MK Ultra – Killer Kelly & Masha Slamovich. The Death Dolls fell short in that match as well.
5 on 5 match – placement In Call Your Shot Match at Bound For Glory
-Jordynne Grace vs Jake Something vs Dirty Dango vs Eric Young vs Champagne Singh
Last week, Jake Something, Jordynne Grace, Dirty Dango (w/Alpha Bravo), Eric Young, and Champagne Singh defeated the team of Bully Ray, KiLynn King, Jody Threat, Mahabali Shera, and Brian Myers, when Jake Something sent Shera INTO THE VOID.
The 5 competitors will now battle for placement in the Call Your Shot Gauntlet Match at Bound For Glory. This should be a great match all around, with some trickery surely afoot.
IMPACT Tag Team Titles
-The Rascalz (c) vs Rich Swann & Sami Callihan
The last time these two teams squared off was on the 8/17 IMPACTonAXSTV episode as part of tag team tournament. The Rascalz won the tournament and would go on to win the Tag Team Titles just 10 days later at the LIVE IMPACT Emergence event on 8/27. Since then, they’ve defeated tue Motor City Machine Guns at the LIVE Victory Road event, as well as JOYA (Joe Hendry & Yuya Uemura) on the 9/28 IMPACTonAXSTV event. The winners of this match will defend their titles against ABC (Ace Austin & Chris Bey) at the Bound For Glory PPV on 10/21.
Sami & Rich Swann’s most recent match was a victory over Laredo Kid & Black Taurus on the 9/28 episode of Before The IMPACT.
Will Sami & Rich pull out the victory and become IMPACT Tag Team Champions, or will The Rascalz keep their titles heading into Bound For Glory? We’ll have to tune in tomorrow night to find out.
