Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for November 23, 2017

It is announced that there will be a Turkey Bowl match tonight. Ten members of Impact Wrestling will be randomly drawn and placed into teams of five, with each team receiving a team captain. The person who gets pinned will wear the turkey suit this year.

We see highlights of the finals of the 2008 Turkey Bowl, where Rhino beats Alex Shelley and Sheik Abdul Bashir - and pins Alex Shelley - to win the Turkey Bowl and force Alex Shelley to wear the turkey suit. Alex Shelley wears the suit after Mick Foley threatens to fire him.



Jeremy Borash turns a tumbler which contains names for who may be in tonight's Turkey Bowl match. Robert Irvine is making the Thanksgiving meal for tonight's Thanksgiving episode.



The stars of Impact Wrestling talk about their favorite Thanksgiving memories.



Eli Drake and Chris Adonis show up. Eli Drake talks about Thanksgiving food, then rechristens the Turkey Bowl the "Eli Drake Gravy Train Turkey Trot." Eddie Edwards is the first name drawn and is picked as team captain.

Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Eddie Edwards, who is glad to check Eli Drake's Gravy Train Turkey Trot off the bucket list. He syas anything is possible and anybody may wear the turkey suit, but it will not be him.

El Hijo del Fantasma is team captain for the second team.

Mackenzie Mitchell interviews El Hijo del Fantasma. Even though Mexico does not celebrate Thanksgiving, the Eli Drake Gravy Train sounds like a party, and there is no party with chocolate.

It is announced that there will be a Knockouts Championship tournament to crown a new Impact Wrestling Knockouts Champion starting next week.



The stars of Impact Wrestling talk about their favorite Thanksgiving foods.



Next week: Texano Jr. vs. "The Cowboy" James Storm! "Reborn" Matt Sydal vs. Tyson Dux! Taiji Ishimori vs. Hakim Zane! We hear from The Latin-American Xchange! Alberto El Patron vs. Johnny Impact in a grudge match!





We see highlights from the Turkey Bowl Match from 2011, where Robbie E beats Eric Young with a foreign object handed to him by Robbie T...almost. The match is restarted when the foreign object flies out of his hands, and after Robbie E confronts referee Rudy Charles, Eric Young gets the win and Robbie E wears the turkey suit. Robbie E is in no shape to put the suit on after the jumping piledriver, and Robbie T is made the replacement to wear the suit. Robbie T is forced to wear the suit after he is warned that Robbie E will be stripped of the TNA Television Championship if he does not wear the suit.



Allie's name is drawn for Eddie Edwards' team. Mackenzie Mitchell then interviews Allie, who really loves turkeys to the point that Mackenzie has to tell her that the loser has to wear the turkey suit.

Caleb Konley's name is drawn next. When Mackenzie Mitchell tries to interview Caleb, Trevor Lee tells him not to lose the match as he wants nobody laughing at them.

"The Standby Wrestler" Richard Justice's name is drawn for Eli Drake's Gravy Train Turkey Trot. Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Richard Justice, who considers it an honor to be in the match. He says the turkey suit may be a little bit snug, but he is teady for anything.

The stars of Impact Wrestling talk about what they are thankful for this year.



KM's name is drawn for Eli Drake's Gravy Train Turkey Trot. Mackenzie Mitchell interviews KM, who only cares about proving himself to American Top Team...and nothing else, including this interview.

Laurel Van Ness' name is drawn for Eli Drake's Gravy Train Turkey Trot. Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Laurel Van Ness, who says she loves a good turkey dinner before mimicking a turkey and scaring Mackenzie.

The stars of Impact Wrestling talk about Thanksgiving family traditions.



We see highlights from Turkey Bowl 2016, where Robbie E beats Grado and forces him to wear the turkey suit.



Fallah Bahh is the next name to be drawn. Mackenzie Mitchell interviews him, but all he does is hit his hand on his head and say "Bahh." When asked if "Bahh" is all he can say, Bahh says "Gobble gobble."

Garza Jr. is the next name drawn. Mackenzie Mitchell interviews him. Garza Jr. says he will not lose because of his injury, and he will not give up or wear the turkey suit.

The team captain for the second team is Chris Adonis, much to the surprise of Adonis and Eli Drake, who then leave.

The Pluto TV Rewind of the Week is Diamond Dallas Page hitting Raven with a Diamond Cutter.

Chris Adonis talks to his team - Caleb Konley, El Hijo del Fantasma, Laurel Van Ness and KM. He understands that nobody on the team wants to wear the turkey suit, and they need to prove what they are made of tonight.

Eddie Edwards talks to his team - "The Standby Wrestler" Richard Justice, Fallah Bahh, Garza Jr. and Allie. Richard Justice wants to know if there is a real Thanksgiving out there, he is told there is, and that they need to get out there and win.



Before the next match, Eli Drake asks that everyone hold up contractually that they will wear the turkey suit if they lose. Everyone solemnly swears to put on the turkey suit if they are pinned.



Eddie Edwards, "The Standby Wrestler" Richard Justice, Fallah Bahh, Garza Jr. and Allie beat Chris Adonis, Caleb Konley, El Hijo del Fantasma, Laurel Van Ness and KM in a Turkey Bowl Match after Eddie Edwards rolls up Chris Adonis. After the match, Eli Dake says there will be a random draw to see who will wear the turkey suit, as Adonis will not wear the suit. Jeremy Borash reminds him that an oath was taken and that Adonis must wear the turkey suit. Adonis refuses and leaves the ring, but security guards show up and force him to go back. Adonis appeases them and tries to run to the back, but more show up and top him, and Adonis is reminded that he is contractually obligated to wear the turkey suit. If he does not wear the suit, the turkey suit will go on Eli Drake. Eli Drake tries to get him out of it, but Adonis is forced back into the ring. Adonis reluctantly wears the suit, then when Adonis leaves the ring, Eddie Wdwards throws food at him. This starts a food fight between the two teams. Eli Drake holds down Eddie Edwards in the ring, but when Chris Adonis tries to tries to hit Eddie with a cherry pie, Eddie ducks and hits Eli Drake in the face instead.
