Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for February 4, 2020

Tessa Blanchard shows up to start tonight's show. She says she has been hearing that Ace Austin has been saying, and that Austin likes to play mind games and get under her skin. She says she doesn't run from a fight and that she is hard to kill, but not hard to find. She also says that she tends to get a little bit impatient, and calls out Austin for a fight. Austin shows up with Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster the Legend), and Adam Thornstowe decides to take on Tessa in the ring.

Tessa Blanchard beats Adam Thornstowe. After the match, Luster the Legend and Ace Austin attack Tessa, then Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster the Legend) hold Tessa down so that Austin can kick Tessa in the gut. Before Austin can hit Tessa with his cane, Tommy Dreamer shows up and swings at Austin and Reno Scum with a Kendo stick, making the save for Tessa. Austin and Reno Scum retreat.

Backstage, Taya Valkyrie butts in on a conversation between Madison Rayne and Kiera Hogan, who refuses to help Taya with Jordynne Grace.
