Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for April 28, 2022

Vincent beats Crazzy Steve in the BTI match.

Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, Deaner) head to the ring. Eric Young says that power and control are what Violent By Design desired and took after running through an eight-team gauntlet match at Rebellion, and that the picture the fans are looking at right now is permanent. Young says that picture is forever, and if the people are being honest, there is nothing that they or any team in this world or the next can do about it. After he says this world belongs to Violent By Design, Rhino and Heath show up. Rhino says that at Rebellion, he and Heath did not get the retribution they deserved, then says he still hears Eric Young's voice in the back of his mind from when he brainwashed him and that they have unfinished business. He then says that they not only want retribution, but the tag team titles, and as Rhino asks if that is what they want to see, The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) show up. Jay Brisco says the fans must be crazy if they thought they wouldn't come back after Multiverse of Matches, then makes it clear that they are coming for the Impact World Tag Team Championships. Heath welcomes The Briscoes to Impact, then tells them that Impact is a new world and he and Rhino are at the front of the line while The Briscoes are at the back. Jay says he goes to the back of the line for nobody, but Heath says he and Rhino made a New Year's resolution to become tag team champions. Eric Young says this is The Briscoes' and Heath and Rhino's problem while Violent By Design themselves are the problem, and tells them to figure it out themselves. After Young says to come see them when they do, Violent By Design leave. Rhino says that while he and Heath want the tag team titles, The Briscoes do not want them as badly as they do, and asks The Briscoes if they want a fight. The Briscoes are game, and Jay Briscoe asks for a referee. A referee shows up, and the match begins.

The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) beat Heath and Rhino to earn a shot at the Impact World Tag Team Championships.

Backstage, Moose meets with Scott D'Amore for not giving him proper time to prepare for "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander, whom Moose accuses Scott D'Amore of favoring. Scott D'Amore tells Moose that he has stayed out of his way and let him set the wrestling world again, and that he is giving him another chance to prove that he is the best, as the world champion will defend against a hand-picked opponent at Under Siege. Moose says he will get the world title back as he tells D'Amore to concentrate on consoling Josh Alexander's family after what he does to him.

We see a vignette for EGV.

Bhupinder Gujjar beats VSK. After the match, Raj Singh and Shera show up. Raj Singh talks with Bhupinder Gujjar, but Shera gets involved and nearly comes to blows with Gujjar. Shera then grabs VSK and slams him, and Raj Singh has to keep Shera back.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews "Inevitable" Ace Austin, who says he became X Division Champion for a third time on his own. He calls himself "Trey Miguel's greatest weakness," and he will keep meeting Trey with The Fold as he stays champion. Suddenly, Rocky Romero shows up and tells Ace Austin that The Best of the Super Juniors is coming up and that he can put a good word in for him. Austin entertains the idea before telling him to get off his set. Rocky Romero then challenges Ace Austin for the X Division Championship, and when Ace says he does not make the matches, Romero says he will talk to Scott D'Amore, then leaves. When Ace leaves, "Speedball" Mike Bailey shows up to shake Ace's hand, but Ace walks away.

We hear from Steve Maclin, who says that Scott D'Amore is hand-picking an opponent for the world champion at Under Siege. Maclin says he has done nothing but stack up bodies since he showed up, and that there is only one obvious choice for the match. He then asks what will happen if a walking weapon or a wrestling god meets mayhem.

Honor No More (Eddie Edwards, Matt Taven, Mike Bennett) beat "Speedball" Mike Bailey and The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) in a six-man tag team match. As Honor No More head up the ramp, Bullet Club ("Switchblade" Jay White, Chris Bey, "The Big LG" Doc Gallows, "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) shows up, and both teams brawl on the outside. Bullet Club comes out on top in the brouhaha.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander, who says he is no longer the one world champion who never had time to wear the title around his waist after all he has been through, then mentions Moose accusing him of having an advantage. Alexander says he will shut Moose up during their rematch, then says he cannot wait to see who his opponent will be at Under Siege.

Taya Valkyrie heads to the ring. Taya says she has had a long time to self-reflect over the last year away from friends and family and seeing her passion and creativity being held captive, and now she stands in the ring in Impact knowing who she is. Taya says she knows her worth and that sometimes, you have to hit rock bottom to get the motivation to reach the top again, which is what she did at Rebellion when she beat Deonna Purrazzo to become a four-time AAA Reina de Reinas Champion. Suddenly, Taya is attacked from behind by Deonna Purrazzo, but Taya fires back and the two women brawl. Deonna gets Taya in the Fujiwara Armbar, then Decay (Rosemary and Havok) show up. Deonna gets out of the ring, then Rosemary confronts Taya before Tasha Steelz and Savannah Evans show up.

Decay (Rosemary and Havok) beat Tasha Steelz and Savannah Evans.

It's time for All About Me, which now has a new set. Tennille Dashwood and Madison Rayne talk about how they got rid of Kaleb with a K and The IInspiration (Jessie McKay and Cassie Lee) when the lights go out. When they come back on, "The Quintessential Diva" Gisele Shaw is on the set. Tennille and Madison take exception to her being on the set, then Gisele challenges Tennille to a match, which Madison accepts on her behalf.

We hear from Vincent, who says that JONAH is a monster in human form while PCO was once human but not anymore. He says that next week, the colosseum will be known as "The Monster's Ball."

"The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander retains the Impact World Championship against Moose. After the match, Tomohiro Ishii shows up and has a staredown with Alexander where he points to the Impact World Championship to end the show.
