Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for December 9, 2021



Lady Frost beats Kimber Lee in the BTI match.

"The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo and Matthew Rehwoldt beats Chris Sabin and Mickie James after Purrazzo grabs Rehwoldt's hand for leverage on a roll-up and the referee cannot see it.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Matt Cardona, who says that after one year, he has finally gotten a world title opportunity. As he says he will walk out champion, W. Morrissey shows up and mocks him for settling for less and not sticking up for himself. Morrissey says he takes what he wants and deserves, and says that he would not settle for a three-way match, saying he wants a one-on-one match with Moose. Cardona proposes a match between them tonight, and if Morrissey wins, he will bow out of the World title match.



We hear from Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, Deaner). Eric Young says that like a rat to the electrified cheese, Rhino cannot learn his lesson after walking away from something special. He says that tonight, Rhino gets him in a street fight, and that it is not a wise move because he is the better man. Doering says he has a design in case Rhino wants to think he is one step ahead with Heath, Rich Swann and Willie Mack.



Rohit Raju vs. Lawrence D ends in a no-contest. During the match, "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander heads to the ring and throws Raj Singh into the ring steps and powerbombs Rohit Raju into his knee. Alexander then calls out Jonah. After the commercial break, Scott D'Amore shows up and says Jonah is not even in the building after he told him to stay home, then tells him he will face Jonah at Hard To Kill. Alexander is not content, saying the longer he has to wait for Jonah, the longer he has to wait for Moose and the World Championship. He says that D'Amore is testing his patience, but D'Amore says he wants him to learn some as he wants him to be World Champion. D'Amore says he and his family consider Alexander family, and says that he has to get his emotions in check. When Raj Singh gets back up at ringside, Alexander gets him in the ring and plants him with a C4 piledriver before saying this is what he calls keeping his emotions in check.



Backstage, Chris Bey and Hikuleo grab a security guard and remove his belt, but Laredo Kid shows up and stands up for the security guard before leaving. When Chris Bey asks what Laredo Kid said, the security guard said "I'd rather not repeat that on TV."

Backstage, Steve Maclin meets with Scott D'Amore, wanting Trey Miguel one-on-one after not having been pinned or submitted. D'Amore tells him he hasn't been beating anybody and that he put his hands on a security guard, and the answer is no. Maclin leaves, then Rosemary and Havok meet with D'Amore, but D'Amore tells them that he is not the person that he needs to talk to regarding the Knockouts Tag Team Championships.



FinJuice (Juice Robinson and David Finlay) beat "Outlandish" Zicky Dice and VSK.



Moose meets with W. Morrissey backstage. He says that he does not want their World Title match to be a three-way match and that Matt Cardona does not deserve to be in it, and he proposes they both take out Cardona. Morrissey says he does not trust him and will take Cardona out himself.

Backstage, Eric Young tells Deaner and Joe Doering to stay backstage, as he will deal with Rhino himself.

Eric Young beats Rhino in a street fight following the involvement of Deaner, Joe Doering, Rich Swann, Willie Mack and - interestingly - The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson), who attack Swann and Willie Mack. Ater the match, Violent By Design and The Good Brothers stand tall in the middle of the ring.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee) and The Influence (Tenille Dashwood and Madison Rayne). After Tenille and Jessica try to answer at the same time, Madison Rayne says she has high hopes for this match, then both teams try to choose between "IInspirational Influence" and "Influential IInspiration" for their team name.



Decay (Rosemary, Havok, Black Taurus, Crazzy Steve) beat The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee) and The Influence (Tenille Dashwood and Madison Rayne) in an eight-person tag match after The IInspiration and The Influence are too busy arguing with each other.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Lady Frost, who is the newest Impact Wrestling signee. Scott D'Amore shows up and welcomes Lady Frost aboard. Lady Frost shows interest in the Knockouts Ultimate X Match, but D'Amore tells her she will have to take that up with Gail Kim. Gail Kim, now part of Impact management, tells Lady Frost she will be part of the match with Tasha Steelz, Rachael Ellering, Jordynne Grace, Rosemary and Chelsea Green.



Matt Cardona beats W. Morrissey by disqualification after Morrissey refuses to listen to the referee's instructions, and after the referee calls for the bell, Morrissey boots the referee in the face. Afterwards, W. Morrissey powerbombs Cardona. Chelsea Green runs into he ring to check on Cardona, then Moose tells Morrissey to pick Cardona up. Morrissey refuses, and boots Moose in the face. Morrissey tells Chelsea to get out of his way, and when Chelsea refuses, Morrissey pulls her off Cardona. When Morrissey approach Cardona, Cardona attacks Morrissey, then lifts up the Impact World Championship.

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for November 11, 2021



Samantha Evans beats Rachael Ellering in the BTI match after Tasha Steelz distracts the referee.

Bullet Club (Chris Bey and El Phantasmo) beat FinJuice (Juice Robinson and David Finlay) after El Phantasmo superkicks Juice Robinson in the face following a roll-up reversal. After the match, The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) show up and attack Bullet Club, and Hikuleo and Gallows end up being the only two people in the ring. Hikuleo and Gallows brawl, and Hikuleo comes out on top.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Scott D'Amore, but he is soon confronted by Josh Alexander, who wants to know why he is not #1 contender for the Impact World Championship. He says that even he knows Alexander is in the title hunt, but Minoru Suzuki is still in his head. He puts Alexander in a match with Suzuki next week, and that when he beats Suzuki, only then will he be focused. He also says that Suzuki is in action, and that Alexander can use the match to scout Suzuki.



Backstage, Brian Myers teaches leading by example. Myers calls last week the most embarrassing loss of his career, but "Outlandish" Zicky Dice says he made a lot of money off that loss and VSK says he beat Sam Beale on his own two weeks ago. Zicky Dice gets slapped twice. Brian Myers then challenges Sam Beale, whom he calls the worst student he has ever had, to a one-on-one match next week, and says that Sam Beale is a dead man.



Minoru Suzuki beats Kaleb.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Moose, who says that he has three men pissed off at him for different reasons, and while they are dangerous, he is the most dangerous man in the locker room and that whoever wins should be concerned.

Decay (Rosemary and Havok) beat Kimber Lee and Brandi Lauren (who are now officially known as "The Undead Bridesmaids"). At the beginning of the match, The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee) show up to watch the match from the stage.



Backstage, we hear from Heath and Rhino. Heath says the last year has been rough, but he has busted his tail to come back at Bound For Glory, reunite with Rhino and beat Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, Deaner). He thought that would be the end of it, but there is still tension. He then says that Rhino got his voice back, and Rhino says it is still so raw to him and that the last year seemed to happen to someone else. He says that there is a poison in his mind and soul and Eric Young put it there, and that with Heath's help, he can purge it. He says that at Turning Point, he and Heath will purge that poison when he tears Violent By Design in half.



Backstage, we hear from The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee). McKay says The Undead Bridesmaids (Kimber Lee and Brandi Lauren) had one job, and Lee says that if they can't get a simple task done, then they will have to take them out of their tag team division next week.



Backstage, we hear from Chris Sabin. He says Ace Austin looks and sounds ridiculous in an "I Beat Chris Sabin" T-shirt when they have had only one match and he needed Madman Fulton to help him cheat to beat him. He says that at Turning Point, he wants to challenge Austin to a one-on-one match, take the shirt, wipe his ass with it and shove it down Fulton's throat.

In backstage footage from last week, Madison Rayne and Kaleb complain about what happened last week regarding both Mickie James and Mercedes Martinez, then Scott D'Amore shows up and says that Madison Rayne is in a match with Mercedes Martinez next week.

Mercedes Martinez beats Madison Rayne with a stack-up pin. After the match, Madison attacks Mercedes and hits her with a ripcord cutter. She then pulls out a chair from underneath the ring and hits Mercedes with it, then Mickie James shows up and lays Madison out with a Mick Kick before checking on Mercedes. When Mickie helps Mercedes up, however, Mercedes hits her with a Death Valley Driver.



Backstage, we hear from Steve Maclin. He says that last week, he lost just like he did in Bound For Glory, yet nobody has been able to pin or submit him. He says he deserves to be in the X Division Championship match, then Trey Miguel shows up and tells him that if he wants to be pinned or submitted, all he has to do is asked. Scott D'Amore shows up, and after Trey Miguel proposes putting Maclin in the X Division Championship match at Turning Point, D'Amore puts Maclin in a match against Laredo Kid next week. If Maclin wins, the X Division Championsip match at Turning Point is a three-way match. D'Amore then tells Maclin to stop interfering in stuff that doesn't involve him if he loses.

We hear from Sam Beale, Rich Swann and Willie Mack. Sam says he was the first student under Brian Myers' learning tree, which he says meant everything to him. He says that next week, they come face to face, and while it is one thing to refer to all of Myers' knowledge, it is another thing to have that knowledge nowhere in sight. He says having nothing to refer to is the real challenge. Beale says that last week, he beat Myers, and that it could have gone the other way. He says he has seen Myers up close and personal and knows how good he truly is, and the challenges that come with their matches. Sam Beale says he has to take on Myers on his own and prove he can stand on his own two feet, and when he comes to the ring, all he brings is what Myers taught him and that it may be him who teaches Myers the lesson.

In backstage footage from last week, Rohit Raju and Raj Singh meet up with Rocky Romero. Rohit says that Romero's experience carries weight, but he cannot walk into his house without wiping his feet and just get an X Division title shot when he has went through so much to get to where he is. He says that management has given him what he wants and that he is standing in his spotlight, and that he plans to push him out of the way and prove he is better than Romero and everybody else.

Rohit Raju beats Rocky Romero.



Backstage, we hear from Hernandez and Johnny Swinger. Hernandez says that Swinger is old-school just like him and gave him a job when no one else would, and if Swinger has a problem, he has a problem. He then says he has gotten a match with Scott D'Amore and says they have a match next week against The Demon and Decay (Crazzy Steve and Black Taurus), then John E. Bravo shows up and says he can solve their problems. He then says he is not wrestling, but Fallah Bahh is. Swinger says he does not trust Fallah, but Fallah says he wants to team with him so that Swinger can owe him.

Backstage, we hear from Chelsea Green. Chelsea says she knew she had to have the Impact Digital Media Championship when she first heard about it, but when she had a shot at the title, John Skyler cheated to beat her. Now that Skyler has lost to Jordynne Grace, there needs to be a new #1 contenders. She has spoken to Scott D'Amore and has gotten a #1 contender's four-way match where it is her vs. Alisha Edward vs. Matthew Rehwoldt vs. Jake Something. Chelsea tells Jordynne to watch closely, because when she wants something, she gets it, and she is about to walk away with her title.

Eddie Edwards beats Matt Cardona and W. Morrissey to become the #1 contender to the Impact World Championship as Moose watches from the skybox.

After the match, Trey Miguel shows up and shakes Laredo Kid's hand only for both of them to get tackled by Steve Maclin. Trey and Laredo Kid then team up and overpower Maclin.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Madison Rayne and Kaleb with a K. Madison Rayne says she and Mickie Rayne have stood across from each other in numerous circumstances, and while things have changed, one things remains the same: when they square off for the Knockouts Championship, she usually wins. Kaleb says that after Mickie loses the championship, he will get the clapback for when she hit him last week. On the subject of Locker Room Talk getting in her way of preparing for tonight, Madison is unconcerned.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews "Inevitable" Ace Austin and Madman Fulton. Ace Austin talks about how he defeated Chris Sabin last week and that his win should be celebrated, then reveals a shirt saying "I Beat Chris Sabin" before saying that Sabin is in trouble tonight. Madman Fulton says that he hopes Sabin has done everything he could to recover from last week, because tonight, he will tear him apart.

Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, Deaner) head to the ring. Eric Young says that Rhino had a decision to make and that he made the wrong decision, and that Rhino learned like everyone else that with choices come repercussions when and that when one is Violent By Design, they are Violent By Design forever. He says he has not gotten his hands dirty in six months, and that it is time to return to the fold and get his hands dirty by building a monument of violence that humanity will live in the shadow of for generations. Eric Young says that monument starts tonight with the first brick being laid right here, right now. Suddenly, a young tan man with sunglasses and a ponytail gets in the ring. This man is Jay Vidal from Las Vegas, Nevada. Eric Young asks if this is his first time on television and if he is excited, to which Jay says "yes" on both counts. Eric then says that Jay has "the disease" and that he has the cure for that.

Eric Young beats Jay Vidal.



Backstage, The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee) show up on the set for Locker Room Talk to find the set empty. Suddenly, Decay (Rosemary, Crazzy Steve, Black Taurus, Havok) make their presence known, and they try to leave only to run into Rosemary and Havok. They eventually get out of the room, and the words "TURNING POINT" are seen written on a mirror.

In footage from during the break, Gia Miller interviews The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee), who find out that they should stay out of the dark corners of the building to avoid Kimber Lee and Brandi Lauren.

The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) vs. FinJuice (Juice Robinson and David Finlay) ends with Bullet Club (Chris Bey, Hikuleo, El Phantasmo) running into the ring, attacking both teams and hitting everyone in the match in the groin.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Johnny Swinger, who is selling things to buy his own casino on Las Vegas. John E. Bravo and Hernandez see what is going on, and Hernandez tells Swinger that he can help him against The Demon.

Backstage, we hear from FinJuice (Juice Robinson and David Finlay) says that The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) were going to lose to them before Bullet Club (Chris Bey, Hikuleo, El Phantasmo) interfered. Scott D'Amore shows up and says they deserve to get their hands on Bullet Club, and next week, both teams will be in a match. He also says that the winner will get a shot at the Impact World Tag Team Championships and that there will be a winner.

Mickie James retains the Impact Knockouts Championship against Madison Rayne after taking Kaleb with a K out of the equation. After the match, Mercedes Martinez shows up and congratulates Mickie James for retaining and says she has respect for her, as every time people put Mickie down, she levels up and does it like nobody has ever done before. She then says she is not here to praise her, and tells Mickie that if she is looking for challengers, her next challenger is standing in front of her, and after winning the Knockouts Knockdown tournament, she will see Mickie at Turning Point.



Backstage, The IInspiration (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee) run across Kimber Lee and Brandi Lauren. They ask Kimber and Brandi if they want to face Rosemary and Havok on their behalf, and Kimber and Brandi seem to accept.

Backstage, Gia Miller interviews "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander, Matt Cardona and Eddie Edwards. Alexander says they all the same thing, albeit for different reasons. He says that while Minoru Suzuki hits hard and W. Morrissey is big and strong, his focus in on Moose. Eddie Edwards stops Alexander before he can go off and says that he knows where Alexander is coming from after what Moose has done to him. Cardona says they all want the same thing, and that they should focus and kick some ass. Alexander says they are all on the same page, then says "Whatever happens next, happens next."

Chris Sabin beats Madman Fulton with a Tornado DDT into a small package, then runs out of the ring after the match.

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for October 21, 2021



W. Morrisey beats Jake Something in the BTI match.

Bullet Club (Chris Bey and Hikuleo) vs. Finn Juice (Juice Robinson and David Finlay) ends in controversy with neither team winning. During the match, the referee is inadvertently hit by Chris Bey's boots and knocked out as Finaly hits a uranagi. A second referee shows up to call the match, and when the first referee comes to, he counts a pinfall for Chris Bey while the second referee counts a pinfall for Juice Robinson. This leads to both referees not knowing who the winner is.



Backstage, FinJuice (Juice Robinson and David Finlay) and Bullet Club (Chris Bey and Hikuleo) argue along with the two referees. Scott D'Amore stops the argument by saying somebody will be challenging The Good Brothers for the Impact World Tag Team titles, and he will make a decision tonight.



We see a video package of "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander talking about his life and career leading up to his match with Christian Cage for the Impact World Championship at Bound For Glory.



The team of John Skyler and Tenille Dashwood beat the team of Fallah Bahh and Jordynne Grace and the team of Chelsea Green and Crazzy Steve in a three-way tag team match.



Rhino is in the ring. As Rhino is about to speak, Heath shows up. Heath says it has been a while and says that he and the fans are confused and that it is definitely because of Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, Deaner), then tells Rhino that if there is anything he can take away from tonight, it is that he loves him and that he is his best friend and his family misses "Uncle Rhino." As Rhino flashes a smile at Heath, Violent By Design shows up. Eric Young says Violent By Design is forever and something one does not walk away from him, and reminds Rhino he made a pact and promise to him and that Violent By Design is his family now. Heath tells Rhino not to rejoin Violent By Design, and Eric Young tells Rhino he told him the truth and made him into his pure form. Heath tells Rhino he is being brainwashed, but Eric Young has none of it. This soon leads to Violent By Design attacking Heath only for Rhino to pull Deaner off of Heath. Eric Young commands Rhino to break Heath in half, and Rhino teases hitting the Gore only to roll out of the ring and leave. Violent By Design then continue to attack Heath, and Eric Young breaks the flagpole of the Violent By Design flag on Heath's back.



We see a video package for Minoru Suzuki, who is coming soon to Impact.

Mickie James beats Savannah Evans in a Pick Your Poison Match that is also Mickie's first match in Impact in six years. During the match, Deonna Purrazzo shows up to watch the rest of the match. After the match, Deonna Purrazzo taunts Mickie James, laying a hand on her - but not hitting her - in the process, then has Matthew Rehwoldt attack Mickie from behind.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Deonna Purrazzo, who says she followed the rules of the no-contact clause, did not hit Mickie and that she did not even have to hit Mickie James. When Scott D'Amore shows up, D'Amore tells Purrazzo that she still made contact with Mickie when she touched her, but tells her that he would rather have lose the Knockouts title in the ring than a courtoom. He also bans Matthew Rehwoldt from ringside at Bound For Glory for breaking the intent of the no-contact clause.



Backstage, Brian Myers cuts Manny Lemons and Sam Beale from the learning tree and leaves Zicky Dice and VSK as part of his learning tree.



Backstage, Scott D'Amore is met by Hardy Evans, The IInspiration's (Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee) entertainment barrister (and formerly Deonna Purrazzo's barrister). Rosemary and Havok teleport into the room. Scott D'Amore has Rosemary, Havok and Hardy Evans sign the contract for the Knockouts tag team title match. Rosemary has to be stopped from signing the contract with Hardy Evans' blood. They all sign. Rosemary then says that she and Havok cannot wait to bite The IInspiration's faces off.



Trey Miguel beats Alex Zayne. After the match, Steve Maclin runs into the ring and attacks Trey Miguel from behind and takes Trey out with a piledriver. Bullet Club then runs into the ring and gangs up on Maclin. El Phantasmo superkicks Maclin, then punches Trey in the groin.



It is announced that both will get a shot at The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) and the Impact World Tag Team Championships at Bound For Glory.

"The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander heads to the ring. Alexander talks about his match for the World Championship at Bound For Glory, and says that while it is a risk, the risk for this match is nothing compared to nearly having his career ended by injury and coming back to the sport he loves. Alexander then says that he has worked for every opportunity that has led him to this and that he will take risks all day long, and the one risk he is not willing to take is telling his sons not to chase their dreams, as the biggest risks have the biggest rewards. Christian Cage shows up, and says that while he understands the enormity of Alexander's situation having been on the biggest stages in the industry, Alexander will be able to deal with the pressure if he can keep his emotions in check. He also says that as much as he respects Alexander, Alexander has done nothing to show that he has it in him. Alexander says he has heard his critics over the years, saying it is similar to what Christian has received and has given him a chip on his shoulder a mile wide. He mentions Christian Cage wanting to come to Impact to make a difference for younger talent, then says he will never be a full part of Impact as long as AEW pays him and that he will bring the Impact World title back where it belongs. Alexander then says he will slam the Forbidden Door in Christian's face and prove that anyone else who wants to walk through the door will see him on the other side. Christian says Alexander is not the best wrestling in the ring, let alone Canada, and that he will stay champion. Alexander takes Christian down with a double leg takedown, starting a brawl that security has to break up. Members of the locker room also have to get involved and keep both men apart.

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for October 7, 2021



It is announced that John Skyler has beaten "Outlandish" Zicky Dice to advance in the Digital Media Championship Tournament after grabbing the tights during a roll-up, which is ironic as Dice tried to win the same way only to get caught by the referee while Skyler did not. It is also announced that Crazzy Steve has beaten Homicide to advance in the Digital Media Championship Tournament.

Laredo Kid beats Matthew Rehwoldt in the BTI with a top rope Spanish Fly.

During the match, The Good Brothers ("The Big LG" Doc Gallows and "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson) are seen watching the match from backstage.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander. Alexander says that normally, tagging with Christian Cage would be an honor and a privilege, but they have to face each other for the Impact World Championship. He says he has studied Christian Cage's career and that he is the wild card in this situation, and that he will take down Madman Fulton and Ace Austin and show Christian Cage exactly who he is taking on at Bound For Glory.



Heath heads to the ring. Heath says he has been out for a year and says everybody has had a bad year. He says that last year, he came ready to wrestle and get his Impact Wrestling contract, but the rug was pulled out from underneath him. He thanks his family for being there for him, but what really makes him sad is that he lost his best friend Rhino, who was there for him for a month but then went off the radar. He says he knows that this Rhino is not the man he knows and says that the abuse Eric Young and Violent By Design (Eric Young, Joe Doering, Deaner) is putting him through is pissing him off, then says he is here to call Rhino out so that they can talk. He gets Eric Young, Joe Doering and Deaner instead, and Eric Young says the Rhino that Heath knows is gone because he got rid of him and made him better, stronger and "more pure." Eric Young asks how many more times they have to get rid of him, then says that Heath does not get to speak to Rhino anymore and that only he speaks to him, saying Rhino belongs to him as Violent By Design gets in the ring. Heath says Rhino belongs to nobody, but Eric Young says that Rhino as he knows him is gone forever before commanding Heath to lower his eyes and leave the ring. Heath says he holds his head down for nobody and he will be damned if he walks out. Eric Young says that Heath will either leave or force Violent By Design's hand, and Heath asks "Well, who wants to try me?" before fighting the whole group only to be levelled by Joe Doering. Doering and Deaner hold Heath back so that Eric Young punches him, then Eric says Rhino is not coming back. He tells Heath that he will be gone forever and punches him in the gut, then hits him in the back with the Violent By Design flag. Eric Young then drapes the flag on top of a downed Heath.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Willie Mack and Rich Swann. Willie Mack says he feels pretty good going up against El Phantasmo and Rohit Raju in the X Division Championship qualifier, then Manny Lemons and Zicky Dice show up only to be told they look like idiots by Swann. When Zicky and Manny say that they are better than Willie and Swann, Swann says they will get with Scott D'Amore to set up a tag team match. When Zicky and Manny tell Brian Myers that they have a match, Myers is unimpressed. He tells Sam Beale and VSK to his bus so they can eat some chicken wings. Zicky and Manny have no idea that Myers has a bus.

Tasha Steelz, Savannah Evans and Mercedes Martinez (who is no longer in NXT as of August) beat Kimber Lee, Brandi Lauren and Lady Frost with a schoolkid pin from Tasha to Kimber after Mercedes Martinez lays Kimber Lee out with a knee only to find out she is not the current legal participant for her team. After the match, Mercedes and Tasha argue in the middle of the ring, due to Tasha Steelz' unwillingness to tag her in throughout the match as well as being the legal participant for their team upon getting the win. Suddenly, Alisha Edwards shows up and attacks both Kimber Lee and Brandi Lauren with a Kendo stick, and security guards have to hold her back.



The Impact Plus Flashback Moment of the Week is "The Cowboy" James Storm vs. "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels from Genesis 2013.

Backstage, Alisha Edwards tells Gail Kim that she wants Kimber Lee. She gives it to her, and it will be part of a Monster's Ball match in which Jordynne Grace and Savannah Evers are also involved.



It's time for All About Me. After The Influence (Tennille Dashwood, Madison Rayne, Kaleb with a K) brag about how they are trending following last week and will become the #1 contenders for the Knockouts Tag Team Championships, we find out tonight's guests/hosts are Rosemary and Havok. Tenille Dashwood becomes heavily censored, then Rosemary asks Tenille Dashwood if she is feeling lucky. The Influence dismiss Rosemary and Havok, but Rosemary refuses to budge and continues to freak Madison and Tenille out to the point that they run away.

We hear from Moose and W. Morrissey. Moose says the hero does not always save the day and that sometimes he gets sent to the hospital just like Sami Callihan. Morrissey says what is going on between him and Moose is an alliance, not a friendship. Moose says they will take that alliance to the Call Your Shot Gauntlet when they dominate and become the last two men standing and fight each other over who gets to call their shot.



Steve Maclin beats "The Canadian Destroyer" Petey Williams and Black Taurus to advance in the X Division Championship Tournament.



Backstage, Gia Miller interviews Christian Cage. Christian says he has done a lot in tag team wrestling in his time, and that while Madman Fulton and Ace Austin are the real deal, he knows how tonight will go. He says that "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander has the chance to scout him only to find out he is not in his realm, and tells Josh to keep his emotions in check tonight. Christopher Daniels then shows up and tells Christian that he is back in Impact to right the wrongs of his past and get the World Championship, which he never held. Christopher Daniels says he wanted to mention this man-to-man and says he wants to challenge Christian for the Impact World Championship, regardless of whether it is in All Elite Wrestling or Impact, and tells him to think about it.



At Swinger's Palace, Johnny Swinger laments the closing of his casino. Hernandez reveals that he has a poster of Dixie Carter.

Swinger then finds out that they have a "Jeff Jarrett: King Of The Mountain" poster.

Gail Kim also makes a Pick Your Poison match for both Mickie and Purrazzo where they pick opponents for each other for Knockouts Knockdown prior to their Knockouts title match. Gail Kim also makes a Pick Your Poison match for both Mickie and Purrazzo where they pick opponents for each other prior to their Knockouts title match. Purrazzo tells Mickie James "You're done" and threatens to get her legal team involved.



Christian Cage and "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander beat "Inevitable" Ace Austin and Madman Fulton.

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for August 12, 2021

We hear from Sam Adonis, who says that today is the day that the impact is made. He says that Joeasa is the only thing standing in his way, then brags about being hated by important people and being kicked out of arenas and countries, saying that this has made him no stranger to being infamous. He says that Joeasa will never forget the day that he got beaten by Sam Adonis, because the only way up is through Impact Wrestling.

We hear from Joeasa, who says that being infamous is not about being kicked out of places and more about picking a fight wherever and whenever one is, and tonight, that fight is with Sam Adonis, who will soon earn a scar that will never fade.

Josh Mathews virtually interviews Deonna Purrazzo. Deonna Purrazzo mentions her busy schedule in Nashville, Tennessee for both today and the next day. Deonna says that Mickie James has a chance at taking the Knockouts Championship from her, but she is lacking competition with the current Knockouts. She also thought that she never had it in her to be this dominant until she came to Impact with a chip on her shoulder, and since then, she has had a target on her back.
