Hello and welcome to Impact Wrestling Results!
This looks like it’s going to be a fun show as we head into Rebellion this Saturday, and we’re set with plenty of snacks on standby.
Let’s get to the action!
There was a great video package where Josh Alexander and Moose talked about their motivation and hints at what we can expect at Rebellion.
Before The Impact – Rich Swann and Willie Mack vs. Rhino and Heath
Heath and Swann started it off with a series of holds and reversals as Swann pitted his speed against Heath’s size and strength advantage for an early draw.
Swann put on a pretty cool move and threw the toothpick ala Scott Hall.
They were clearly having fun as they put on a move contest where Heath admitted defeat instead of attempting a split.
Rhino tagged in and he called for Mack to tag in along with the fans chanting “We want Willie!”
Mack tied in and after a lockup, Rhino hit a shoulder block and Mack kipped up and hit a shoulder block of his own.
Swann blind tagged in as Mack hit a pop up forearm for Swann to go for a pin attempt.
Swann and Mack hit a double team neckbreaker on Heath, and Mack went for the pin attempt. Swann tagged in but Heath avoided the Phoenix Splash and nailed Swann with a clothesline.
Rhino came in and hit a series of clotheslines on Mack for a pin attempt Swann broke up. Swann then took out Heath on the floor with a flip, and Mack went for a moonsault off the tip rope Rhino avoided.
Rhino hit a Gore for the win to conclude a fun match to get the night started.
Violent By Design (Deaner and Eric Young) w/Joe Doering vs. Decay (Crazzy Steve and Black Taurus)
Deaner went after black Taurus at the start and Taurus lit into him with several strikes and chops.
VBD hit a double team on Taurus with Young getting a pin attempt, then Deaner getting one before more double team action.
VBD looks like a well oiled machine so far.

Steve tagged in and he used his speed for the advantage on Deaner, and then bit him before knocking Young to the floor with a dropkick so he could focus on Deaner.
Steve hit a double underhook Pedigree off the top rope for a pin attempt Young broke up with a flying elbow.
Doering took out Taurus on the floor, and Young broke the VBD flag over Steve’s back when the ref was distracted.
Deaner hit a DDT for the win.
Backstage, Rosemary and Havok were ambushed by Tasha Steelz and Savannah Evans as they helped Steve and Taurus to get an edge for Rebellion.

Brian Myers and Matt Cardona made their way to the ring with Chelsea Green with them and Cardona wasted no time in talking about wanting some tag team gold.
Myers said they see eye to eye, and he’s the best version of himself he’s ever been.
Green took over the mic and declared the Major Players will take over Impact Wrestling.
Guido Maritato and Tony Marmaluke came out after hearing enough.
Cardona welcomed/mocked the ECW originals, and Guido called them out and told them to never disrespect the building because it’s the fans’.
A brawl broke out after Cardona told them they haven’t been relevant since ECW died, and Guido challenged Cardona to put the Digital title on the line.
Digital Media Championship – Matt Cardona (c) w/Brian Myers, Chelsea Green vs. Guido Maritato w/Tony Marmaluke
Cardona tried to sucker Guido in with a handshake, but Guido caught his kick and then they traded various holds.
Tony led Cardona on a chase around the ring, and Guido caught him coming into the ring.
With Myers distracting the ref, Cardona hit a dropkick through the ropes to regain control. Guido took back control with a series of moves, including the Sicilian Leg Drop, but Cardona hit a low blow and then Radio Silence when Myers distracted the ref.
After the match, Myers went after Tony and then pulled out a table from under the ring.

Morrissey came out and sent Cardona to the floor with a big boot and was going to chokeslam Myers through the table but Green hit a low blow.
Jordynne Grace came out and dropped Myers and Green, and then Cardona. She urged Morrissey to choke slam Cardona through the table and he did in impressive fashion.
