Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for February 15, 2018

Lashley beats Sami Callihan by disqualification when oVe (Jake and Dave Crist) get involved after Lashley hits the Spear. After the match, Jake and Dave Crist continue to attack Lashley, then Eddie Edwards runs into the ring and fights the Crist Brothers off before tossing one of them to Lashley, who then press slams one of the Crist brothers out of the ring and into the other.



Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Eli Drake and Chris Adonis. Eli Drake tells Austin Aries he is still the recognized Impact World Champion, and says that this title rematch is Austin Aries' first match. He tells Aries to enjoy carrying the World Championship as he travels around the world and picks up other titles, for he has never met someone like Eli Drake, and he cannot stop being himself and being the champion.

Brian Cage is coming...

At the clubhouse, The Latin-American Xchange are playing dominoes when Konnan addresses The Cult of Lee (Trevor Lee and Caleb Konley), saying they are nothing. Konnan then asks Homicide to expand LAX operations in Tijuana, Mexico so they can do business together again.



The GWN Flashback Moment of the Week is the marriage between Braxton Lee and Laurel Van Ness, which got spoiled by Allie.

Allie is making her way into the building when she notices a note on her bags. It tells her to "meet me at the tunnel at 22."

Austin Aries says he has been collecting championships around the world and defending them left and right for the last couple of months, and that nobody expected him to walk in two weeks ago and become the new Impact World Champion, including himself. Eli Drake has made the challenge, and he is going to take it. He has been the company for a long time, through the good times and bad, but there has been a rebirth and he can make a difference. He can only make a difference if he is on top, and to stay on top, he must remain champion. He tells Eli Drake he has never stepped into the ring with someone like him, and he hopes Eli Drake has prepared himself as he does not expect to beat him in 60 seconds. Whether it takes 60 seconds or 60 minutes, he will walk out Impact World Champion.

Mackenzie Mitchell interviews Moose, who says he does not care what Alberto El Patron has to say concerning last week's main event. Suddenly, he is attacked from behind by El Patron, which starts a brawl between the two men.

Rosemary beats Hania the Huntress after using Hania's momentum against her following a top rope cross body. After the match, Hania continues to attack Rosemary. Suddenly, Rosemary bites Hania on the arm and almost Red Wedding, and Hania manages to retreat.



Johnny Impact takes some advice from "Reborn" Matt Sydal backstage before their match tonight.

Ethan Carter III's mystery tag team partner is Tyrus, who has not been seen in Impact in months.

Allie makes it to Stage 22, where she finds a card and some Valentine's Day chocolates. The card reads "Love is hard, never lame, very crazy, very insane." As she continues to read the card, she realizes it is Laurel Van Ness, who pops out of a nearby box. Allie smacks her with the box of chocolates before beating her up and putting her back in the box.



Ethan Carter III and Tyrus beat Johnny Impact and "Reborn" Matt Sydal after Ethan Carter III uses the ropes for leverage.



Jimmy Jacobs and Kongo Kong find the office for Park, Park and Park and vandalize it in an attempt to bring out Abyss.



"The Machine" Brian Cage beats Jon Cruz in his official debut.



Backstage, Trevor Lee tells Caleb Konley that the colors of the Puerto Rican flag mean nothing to them, and that only the tag team titles mean anything. He says that if The Latin-American Xchange come after Konley, then they are coming after him. They go looking for LAX only to find Fallah Bahh eating some M&Ms. They then see the Mumbai Cats, and think they are LAX in disguise. They attack them and unmask them only find out they are not LAX.

Taiji Ishimori retains the Impact X Division Championship against El Hijo del Fantasma.



Next week: Moose vs. Alberto El Patron! Cult of Lee (Trevor Lee and Caleb Konley) vs. The Latin-American Xchange (Santana and Ortiz)! Johnny Impact puts his #1 contendership for the Impact World Championship on the line against Ethan Carter III!
