Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for September 2, 2021



Jake Something beats John Skyler in the BTI match.

In memory of Shannon "Daffney" Spruill, 1975 - 2021.

Taylor Wilde, Jordynne Grace and Rachael Ellering beat The Influence (Tenille Dashwood, Kaleb with a K, Madison Rayne).



We see footage from NWA Empowerrr, where Deonna Purrazzo defended and retained the Impact Knockouts Championship against Melina. We also see footage from Mickie James vs. Kylie Ray at NWA 73, where Mickie James came out on top only to be attacked by a masked woman who reveals herself to be Deonna Purrazzo.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Deonna Purrazzo and Matthew Rehwoldt. Purrazzo says her actions speak for themselves, and Rehwoldt states that Mickie James was convinced Purrazzo could not beat Melina, but Purrazzo proved Mickie wrong. He then says that the two of them can move on, and that Trey Miguel has his attention. Purrazzo says that when the two of them, they keep it, and that they are not to be crossed.

We hear from Tommy Dreamer, who says that history has come full circle, as he beat Christian Cage and Jack Swagger to become ECW Champion in WWE, then Christian shows up and mentions that Tommy did not pin him. Christian then says he hopes that Tommy Dreamer beats Ace Austin and faces him for the Impact World Championship, as it would be fitting. Tommy then asks Christian to let him do this on his won, as he wants no excuses when he faces him.

Before the next match, Rosemary is attacked by a member of No Way's conga line, and it is revealed to be Tasha Steelz in disguise. Havok chases Tasha to the back only to be laid out by Savannah Evans, then Havok and Rosemary run to the back.

Decay (Crazzy Steve and Black Taurus) beat Fallah Bahh and No Way.



The Impact Plus Flashback Moment of the Week is Sting vs. Abyss vs. Christian Cage for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at Final Resolution 2007.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews W. Morrissey, who says that Sami Callihan made a mistake hitting him with a baseball and sticking his nose in his business. However, he has a small amount of respect for Callihan and Eddie Edwards. Morrissey admits that he likes their being honest with hating each other, and says that their honesty will not get them far when Moose shows up. Moose says he agrees with what W. Morrissey has had to say about the business since he showed up. He says that he will stab Morrissey in the back the first chance he gets because Morrissey would do it to, then says they have problems with both Callihan and Edwards before stating he is not looking for a friendship, but an alliance.

We hear from Steve Maclin, who says that he does not know how to get through to "The Canadian Destroyer" Petey Williams, who he says does not know a thing about destruction or what he is capable of, which is mayhem. He then says that if Petey Williams wants to pick a fight, they can do it next week, and it will be mayhem for all.

Moose heads to the ring. He says it pisses him off that everyone in this era wants to be a hero and that Eddie Edwards wants to be the hero to "all the imbeciles" in the crowd, and says that gave Edwards a date with the devil. Moose reminds Edwards that they have a history, and that he is a monster and a wrestling god now, and dares Edwards to get in the ring so he can prove that the hero does not always save the day. Eddie Edwards shows up and brawls with Moose, and as Edwards strikes Moose with the Kendo stick, W. Morrisey shows up and grabs Edwards so that Moose can hit Edwards with a lariat. Moose and Morrissey proceed to lay out and powerbomb Edwards, then Moose tells Eddie Edwards that the hero does not save the day in this story.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Fallah Bahh and No Way. Fallah and No Way say they had no idea Tasha Steelz and Savannah Evans would attack Decay, then TJP shows up. After the three of them get on the same page, TJP proposes they head to Swinger's Palace next week.

We see Eric Young speak with Rhino, who tells him that the reckoning for failing time and time again is here. He says that he sees a pattern. He says that the sickness is back in Rhino, and that Rhino must suffer in order to be cured. He says that the openings he feels will be the sickness leaving the body, and that he must be isolated and left to suffer in the darkness.

Jake Crist answers "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander's open challenge for the Impact X Division Championship.

"The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander retains the Impact X Division Championship against Jake Crist. After the match, Gia Miller interviews Josh Alexander in the ring, who says he has to defend the X Division Championship against former champions for himself, his legacy and the Impact fans in order to become the greatest X Division Champion of all time. Suddenly, Chris Sabin shows up and says he is a big fan and that he loves what he has done in the ring, and that his reign as X Division Champion is amazing, but Alexander has only held the title once while he has held it eight times. He says that Alexander must beat the greatest of all time in him to become the greatest, and proposes a title match at Victory Road, with the winner reaching greatness. Alexander shakes Sabin's hand.



Sam Beale issues an offer for anyone who wants to become a professional wrestler. We then see some videos from some takers. We then see some of these people from the videos as Brian Myers teaches how to make alliances. The line of hopefuls is cut to two people: Manny Lemons and "Outlandish" Zicky Dice, who is almost cut until Beale tells him they will only have Manny Lemons if he does. Myers says he will see Zicky and Manny next week.

Rohit Raju and Shera beat Matt Cardona and Chelsea Green when Shera refuses to fight Chelsea Green only for to Rohit Raju to throw Cardona out of the ring after Cardona hits Shera with Radio Silence before kicking Chelsea Green in the jaw for the win.



We see Kimber Lee and Su Yung. Kimber says that some souls will be collected, and that others will be converted. We then find out that Brandi Lauren is now one of Su Yung's minions as Su Yung tells her that her time has come.

The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) head to the ring. Anderson tells the fans to shut up, then he and Gallows bring up Willie Mack and Rich Swann. Gallows says they snuck a roll-up on them in a non-title match to earn #1 contendership for the Impact tag team titles only for Willie Mack to go through a table. Gallows says that nobody wins championship while in traction and makes fun of Willie Mack, then Rich Swann shows up with a chair and fights off The Good Brothers until security steps in.



Backstage, Scott D'Amore calls off security and, knowing Rich Swann wants to get his hands on The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson), puts him in a match against Karl Anderson in a Bunkhouse Brawl next week.

"Inevitable" Ace Austin beats Tommy Dreamer with The Fold from out of nowhere after Dreamer beats up Madman Fulton at ringside for putting Austin's foot on the bottom rope. (Had Dreamer won, he would have been part of the Impact World Championship match at Victory Road, making the match a three-way match.
