Surprised to not see a thread for this. I guess we can still talk about the show here.
Pretty good show this week. Sami/Fallah was definitely better than I thought it was gonna be, pissed off Bahh is awesome! The Tag Titles match was good(and it set it up for there to be more matches in the future between LAX & The North), & Taya/Madison was solid, plus Rosemary has staked her claim for the KO Title. For it's short time, the X-Division 4 Way was fun. RVD/Dreamer was what you expected it to be, them doing their greatest hits in slow motion, though the crowd was super into it...actually, the crowd was good all night. Also, the 2019 feud of the year, Melissa Santos vs. Technology, continued...with the added bonus of her looking like she was naked.

I liked everything except the main event. I'm working on my review now, and I think that Impact has done an amazing job of rebuilding themselves and the brand, but this is a HUGE step backwards. I get it since it's in Philly, but I hope this is just a passing shit storm, and they can go back to focusing on people who aren't living off of 1998. I literally groaned and turned the show off once Sabu showed up. I just don't care. Review will be up in the morning before work. And I popped huge for Rosemary coming out, I hope that's the Slammiversary KO's title match. Then again I also was hoping we'd have Gilbertti vs. Tessa Blanchard at Slammmiversary too, but that's next week. |

Surprised to not see a thread for this. I guess we can still talk about the show here. Impact being on a late Friday night + A channel most people don't get + Me and The Spelunker! being the only posters bothering to make a thread (I personally don't feel like doing it anymore) = Lack of interest, regardless of the show's quality after Dixie's and Jarrett's departures. That new TV deal can't come soon enough. Still, I don't like that Impact's going in the ECW rehash direction again. |

Impact has been really good since 2018, but I fear they will be eclipsed soon by AEW.

RVD vs Dreamer wasnt the trainwreck I was expecting, It was probably close to Sting vs Hogan BFG 2011 level.
Taya vs Madison was a bit too long, couldve given that time to the X-division match.
Next week, good bye to Disco again.

I have a morbid curiousity for the dreamer/RVD match, the rest I'm legit looking forward to watching.

I'm just waiting for the inevitable return of Kongo Kong to Impact.
Not because I like him, but because they're bound to put him back in after months of jobbing on Xplosion.
