Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for June 23, 2020

Tasha Steelz beats Nevaeh with a schoolkid pin following the distraction by Kiera Hogan.



We see an excerpt from Deonna Purrazzo's recent interview on Busted Open Radio where Jordynne Grace confronts Purrazzo, saying she will "fucking crush her" when they meet in the ring. Deonna calls Jordynne "jealous" and "classless," and says that when they meet in the ring, she will become Knockouts Champion.

Backstage, Deonna Purrazzo says that Jordynne Grace wants to put her hands on her, but she came to Impact to become a champion. Suddenly, Alisha Edwards shows up to give some advice, but Deonna wants nothing to do with her. This leads to Alisha Edwards challenging her to a match.

Backstage, Johnny Swinger meets with Rich Swann and tries to get him to be his and Chris Bey's mystery partner tonight. Swann says he is still injured, that Willie is still his friend, and that he will tell Willie what he tried to do.

The Impact Plus Flashback Moment of the Week is Bully Ray vs. Devon from November 1, 2012.

Backstage, "All Ego" Ethan Page tells "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander it annoys him to no end that everyone "drools over Ken Shamrock" and that he does not get the hype while he and Josh are the two best wrestlers in Impact today. He says that they should get more matches and more money, but they are getting no attention and he is getting angrier and angrier. Suddenly, Shamrock shows up and tells him that him nothing came easy for him. Alexander challenges Shamrock to a match, which Shamrock is all too willing to accept.

Backstage, Moose says nobody is taking him seriously as champion when Crazzy Steve shows up and calls Moose a fake world champion. He says that if Moose is a champion, then he has a top ten hit on Billboard. Crazzy Steve continues to mock Moose, who tells Steve that he has earned a title opportunity and that he will realize who the real world champion is when he sends him to the hospital.

Deonna Purrazzo beats Alisha Edwards by submission. After the match, Jordynne Grace chases Deonna Purrazzo out of the ring.



Backstage, Johnny Swinger is seen asking Suicide to be his and Chris Bey's mystery partner. Suicide walks away as soon as Swinger looks away from him.

Backstage, Johnny Swinger tries to talk Hernandez into being his and Chris Bey's mystery partner. Hernandez says he will do it if Swinger can beat him at arm wrestling. Hernandez beats him, then gives him a Rhino Micro Brawler as a consolation prize. He then runs into Taya Valkyrie and asks her to be his and Chris Bey's partner, but Taya refuses and says she is looking for John E. Bravo.

The North ("All Ego" Ethan Page tells "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander) attack Ken Shamrock before the next match begins and easily overpower him, and Ethan Page stomps on Shamrock as Alexander puts him in the ankle lock.



Taya Valkyrie beats Susie.



After the match, Taya mocks Susie before choking her out with her hair, then Kylie Rae shows up and smacks Taya with a superkick.

Backstage, Jimmy Jacobs interviews Madman Fulton, but Ace Austin shows up and says he should worry less about what Fulton thinks and more about what he does. He says that Fulton has potential, and that their alliance is all about becoming the greatest Impact World Champion of all time.

Backstage, Chris Bey meets with Johnny Swinger, who says he has got his "original pick:" Rohit Raju. Chris Bey is not happy with Swinger's pick for their mystery partner.

Chris Bey, Johnny Swinger and Rohit Raju beat Willie Mack and The Deaners (Cody Deaner and Cousin Jake).



Backstage, Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster The Legend) gives D'Lo Brown a hard time when TJP and Fallah Bahh show up and confront them for accusing them of attacking Trey Miguel. This leads to Reno Scum challenging them to a match next week.

Next week: TJP and Fallah Bahh vs. Reno Scum (Adam Thornstowe and Luster The Legend)! Kiera Hogan vs. Havok! Crazzy Steve vs. Moose for the TNA World Heavyweight Championship! At Slammiversary: Deonna Purrazzo vs. Jordynne Grace for the Impact Knockouts Championship!

Madman Fulton beats Eddie Edwards.



After the show, D'Lo Brown is seen talking with someone on a laptop, saying he is tired of being a corporate stooge and that it is time for "the band to get back together. He gets out of his seat to reveal his old Aces and Eights kutte, which he takes with him.
