Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for March 23, 2017

In memoriam: Jan Ross.

Davey Richards beats Suicide.



We see another vignette from LAX, who says that last week was just the beginning. Konnan says he and LAX are back, and they're coming for the tag team titles.



Mackenzie Mitchell tries to interview Laurel Van Ness, who is still delirious after the wedding. Sienna tries to get her to focus, telling her she has big plans for both Braxton Sutter and Allie.



Mahabali Shera, Laredo Kid and Garza Jr. beat Ibris Abraham, Fallah Bahh and Mario Bokara in an international six-man tag match.



A limousine is seen outside the arena...

Reno Scum (Adam Thornestowe and Luster the Legend) beat Decay (Abyss and Crazzy Steve) after Rosemary accidentally spits her green mist into Crazzy Steve's face.



Fury will be unleashed on April 6, 2017...

Cody and Brandi Rhodes come out of the limousine. Cody goes to the back and hits Moose from behind with a steel chair before his match with Eli Drake before hitting Moose with cross Rhodes. After Cody leaves, referees have to coerce Moose to go to the back.



Before the next match, Konnan tells the crowd that The Latin-American Xchange are back for the tag team titles, and says that while his relationship with Impact Wrestling is contentious, but he's handling his business in the ring, not in the courts.

LAX (Santana and Ortiz) beat The DCC ("The Cowboy" James Storm and Bram) after a huge miscommunication between Storm and Kingston. After the match, Storm and Kingston are at odds again, and Bram has to play peacekeeper. This leads to Storm also having a brief staredown with Bram. Storm says "I'm the one who started this," then walks out on both Bram and Kingston.



In footage from earlier this week, Bruce Prichard asks "Who is Lashley?" We learn that Lashley trained with the US Olympic team and won championships before becoming a professional wrestler.



DJ Z says that Impact has always been ahead of the curve and has gone to place other companies haven't gone, and has stayed true to its history of trailblazing. He says Impact has let him live his dream and believed in him, and he believes in them. He says that Impact will have a new energy in 2017, and there is not a better time to believe in Impact.



Mackenzie Mitchell announces that Moose will defend the Impact Grand Championship next week against Cody Rhodes. She then interviews Braxton Sutter and Allie. Sutter that Allie is the greatest thing to happen to him, and says he will not let anyone faze Allie.

ODB beats Rebel in a comedic match that sees referee Earl Hebner kiss Rebel when she tries to slap him, drink from ODB's flask and get kissed by ODB.



In footage from earlier this week, Lashley talks about how he almost got shot and ended up getting knocked out in a bank robbery that cost him a tournament performance and put him on the shelf for six months. Lashley considers this a chip on his shoulder, and says it motivated him to get even stronger.



Lashley beats Jake Holmes.



Jeremy Borash introduces Jeremy Borash re-introduces Karen Jarrett, revealing once and for all who the "she" Borash has mentioned the last few weeks is. Borash welcomes Karen back, She says her family started this company and put everything they had in it, and says the last few years have been difficult. Over those years, there were times where it was incredibly umbling and full of change, and simply says that she is looking forward to the future. When the crowd chants for her to fire Josh Mathews, she says she'll put that on her list of changes. She then thanks the fans for being the best and for always being there, then Ethan Carter III shows up. EC3 agrees that the fans here are the best, as well as the people behind the show every week, and says he's done just about everything in Impact. He says that the top man is reporting for duty, and says that with everybody's help, Impact will be made great. But he says he's not doing it for the Angle family; instead, he's doing it for the Carter family. Josh Mathews interrupts, calling Karen an "evil, tryant queen" and complains about all the changes and news faces that have happened and shown up over the last few weeks, and then says his problem is with Karen, and asks Karen if she even knows who his wife is. He then says it'll be a matter of time before the Jarrett family is gone from Impact Wrestling forever. Karen then slaps Josh in the face, telling him not to involve her family in anything ever again.





Here's tonight's show in sixty seconds!
