As noted, Austin Aries will defend the Impact World Championship against the new face of hardcore, Eddie Edwards, on next Thursday night’s edition of Impact Wrestling television. But that’s not all!
Aside from the big world title match, Impact has announced three additional bouts for what’s starting to look like a stacked night of in-ring action. Former X-Division Champion Matt Sydal will take on Pentagon Jr. as he looks to get his mojo back on the right track, plus Alisha Edwards returns to Knockouts competition when she faces the red-hot Tessa Blanchard.
Finally, the Desi Hit Squad will look to throw their hat in contention for the Impact Tag Team Championships next week, when they face the international duo of “Bone Soldier” Taiji Ishimori and the “Canadian Destroyer” Petey Williams. All this and more next Thursday night on POP TV, kicking off at 8/7c.
Three big time matches have been set for next week on IMPACT on top of the IMPACT World Championship match! @findevan vs. @PENTAELZEROM @HakimZane and @GursinderImpact vs. @iPeteyWilliams and @taiji_ishimori@MrsAIPAlisha vs. @Tess_Blanchard!
