Are they taping back at The Asylum? It looks like it Skyway Studios, in Nashville. They've taped all their shows there since last April.

All the stuff I thought would be so f***ing cool in wrestling when I was 14 is actually happening now.
I love it.
Also you kids get off my lawn.

They're also not making IMPACT look worth a dang in retrospect either with two of their historically most over talents going down to Private Party, even if Jerry Lynn was involved. So you say they don’t mean a damn because they lost...even though they inadvertently cheated to win? Also, didn’t Storm and Sabin get their heat back after the match and brawl with the other two teams to possibly set up a triple threat? How does that make them look like they’re not worth a damn? Two days in a row it’s the end of the world. If the heel gets to look strong.

I didn't say the talents in particular, I said IMPACT as a whole. Their talent has not scored a pinfall or come out on top in actual competition once. If it continues much further I'll be disappointed as it's already starting to devalue IMPACT to me. You came in awfully hot there, is there something wrong with my view on it? Is my opinion wrong? 😂

Two days in a row it’s the end of the world. If the heel gets to look strong. Like, would I have had Swann pinned in the six man? Of course not but then (having not watched the match), you could argue it was after an intense battle and Omega happened to get the lucky last shot in. This? It’s protecting Beer Gun, putting over the angle with not only Private Party’s confliction with Money Matt but potentially them not winning clean because of Lynn as well as setting up a three way for the next PPV. I don’t know what’s the bad here.

This wasn’t the Undertaker and Kane killing Palumbo and O’Haire, here.

Guys that should be IMPACT's cream of the crop are dropping to AEW guys shadily or otherwise, I'd like that to change soon. I can't spell it out for you in any other way. If you don't like how I feel about it, cool.

In that case, wouldn’t it technically be 2-2? Edit: Actually, that wouldn’t make sense so yeah, 2-1.

The two spoilers I heard didn’t even happen on this episode.
This is going to be a fun couple of weeks

Kenny effectively is fighting for Impact as AEW champion. But I assume we’ll see an impact main roster invader or two within the next couple tapings of AEW. I'm not even talking about IMPACT guys showing up on AEW. Just having their talent win anywhere. Kenny isn't fighting for IMPACT when he's out there diminishing and undermining the value of their top champion and championship. They're also not making IMPACT look worth a dang in retrospect either with two of their historically most over talents going down to Private Party, even if Jerry Lynn was involved. It's making IMPACT look bitch tier and whether that's true out of kayfabe or not they shouldn't be accentuating it in kayfabe. It's already starting to be a bad look. Objectively, AEW has what, 7 or 8 times the audience Impact does? Kenny Omega and the Bucks sold this to Khan, who had zero reason to do this, as something that could be fun and different. Impact has gotten a lot more eyes on the product, and a lot more people are paying attention. This was a favor to Callis, who has been trying for a long time to get Impact on the map. Impact is now on the map. Impact is going to lose the "feud", because Impact needed Dynamite, and many people considered it slumming for Dynamite to work with Impact. You may not feel that way, but when it comes to ratings, media, whatever, that was the consensus. Now also, let me remind me, that Impact is not far off from having to strip their female World Champion of her title because she refused to come back and work for them. A title they put on her after racist and bullying stories had come out about her. Not too long after a match where Aries basically no sold his loss, and threw up middle fingers as he walked out.Eric Young was just champion after being an occasional jobber who struggled to have a match once every two months in WWE. I don't think Omega pinning Swann or Private Party pinning Storm/Sabin is the "bad look" you think it is. It's just stories being told, and you should just enjoy the ride.

Well Good Brothers are gonna beat private party.
I think Private Party beating a big impact tag tema and then losing to their tag champs is a good balance. Because they are considered a top team in the company,which is the best tag division. The tag champions of Impact saying they are better than one of the best of the best division in the planet is not bad.
And Impact tag division needs the credibility boost

Great episode. James "Mother'F'n" Storm, Private Party, Matt Hardy, Jeri Lynn, and Tony Khan on an episode of Impact. Can't believe it was Taya all along, and the hate she has for Bravo. Liked Bravo throwing Mr. Mundo at her. Sad to see Rosemary and Taya as she left. If this was the last time she'll be on Impact it was great seeing her during this run and what she bought to the table and putting over the younger Knockouts was great. Noticed ThiccMary's new look and how it was coordinated with Mentally Unwell Steven so I'm guessing they're going to be together in someway from now on. Great main event and loved the Moose/Rich Swann segment. Everytime I think I've seen the last of Jazz she's on another episode of Impact. Glad to keep seeing her.
Lines of the night: Tommy Dreamer - "If she's lucky she gets sent to Jacksonville state prison but if she's unlucky, she could go to Stamford Maximum Security Prison for 2 years with an option for a 3rd and that place will eat your soul." Acey Romero :Hope she doesn't get sent to Baltimore."
Loved Hardy math - 50% from both of you (3rd party) + 30% from both of you tomorrow and my 100% = 260%. Scott Steiner would be proud.

I love that the angle has evil authority figure Don being clearly a virus attempting to manipulate everyone involved while good authority figure Scott just is looking at the positives and is excited for the prospects of business growth.

While I checked in for their SMASH and LU crossovers, this was my first actual episode of Impact since the short-lived Billy Corgan booking run, and I was actually quite pleased with it.
My only real complaint is the piped-in crowd noise. It's fine for matches, but it should be toned down for in-ring interviews/promos and outright eliminated for backstage stuff. Makes it hard to listen along.

It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
