Next week: Michael Elgin vs. Rich Swann vs. Moose vs. Tessa Blanchard vs. Daga in a five-person elimination challenge match for #1 contendership of the World Championship!

Backstage, Rich Swann is interviewed. Swann says he showed up a year-and-a-half ago and kicked down the door to show that he can hang with bigger opponents, and when he gets his opportunity, he will prove his doubters wrong when he becomes World Champion.

Backstage, Michael Elgin says that a lot of people can hope and wish, but he is the only one he can do, and while he loves hearing people talk about how great he is, the World Championship proves your greatness. Elgin tells Sami Callihan that all he achieved was a path for him to take the World title from him, and he tells Sami Callihan to enjoy the World title while he can, for he will become the next challenger.

Madison Rayne beats Alexia Nicole.



In the locker room, Johnny Swinger tries to make Aiden Prince his "young boy" as he says he pooped in Petey Williams' bag. Suddenly, Petey shows up, and it becomes known that the bag does not belong to Petey when Petey says that the bag is not his. When Aiden and Petey leave, it is revealed that the bag belongs to Ken Shamrock.

We hear from Rob Van Dam, who says that he and Katie Forbes will be back in action next week.

Daga beats Jake Crist.



Backstage, The North ("All Ego" Ethan Page and "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander) is interviewed. Page says that they are putting the tag team titles on the line to prove they are fighting champions. Alexander says he could not be happier, as their match is a perfect opportunity to get the respect they deserve. He says that if they don't get that respect, the headlines will still say they are victorious. When asked what will happen if they do not win, Page ends the interview, and says that they will say whatever else they have to say in the ring.

oVe (Sami Callihan and Madman Fulton) beat Rich Swann and Tessa Blanchard after Callihan hits Swann with the World title as referee Brandon Tolle is taking Callihan's baseball bat out of the ring. After the match, oVe continues to attack Swann, and Sami hits Tessa Blanchard with the World Championship. Suddenly, "The Machine" Brian Cage shows up and fights off oVe, forcing them to retreat.



Backstage, "The Machine" Brian Cage says he is not done with oVe and the World Title. He says that if there is a match to decide a #1 contender for the World title next week, he is going to be in it.

The Impact Plus Flashback Moment of the Week is Rich Swann vs. Ethan Page vs. Jake Crist vs. Trey Miguel in an Ultimate X Match for the Impact X Division Championship at Homecoming.

In the locker room, Johnny Swinger brags to Jimmy Jacobs and two other guys about pooping in Ken Shamrock's bag. Nobody sees this as a rib as they walk away.

Backstage, Jordynne Grace confronts Taya Valkyrie and tells her that she has beaten her once and will beat her again. Taya tells Jordynne she cannot just challenge her for the Knockouts title, but Jordynne says it doesn't have to be any match. John E. Bravo accepts the challenge on Taya's behalf, then Jordynne proposes a two-on-one handicap match against Taya and John E. Bravo.

We hear from Moose, who boasts that he will beat Ken Shamrock to become the best MMA fighter of all time and earn a shot at the World title beating another guy at tennis.

Havok beats Crystal Moon. After the match, Havok meets Suzy, but when she lays a hand on her, Suzy has memories of being Su Yung for a brief moment.



"The Machine" Brian Cage is official in next week's elimination match for #1 contendership for the World Championship.

The North ("All Ego" Ethan Page and "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander) retain the Impact World Tag Team Championships against Eddie Edwards and Naomichi Marufuji.

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for October 29, 2019



Naomichi Marufuji beats "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander. After the match, Marufuji wants to shake Alexander's hand, but "All Ego" Ethan Page does not let Alexander do it. Alexander stops him, then almost takes the handshake only to pull his hand back and taunt Marufuji along with Page.



Backstage, oVe (Sami Callihan, Dave Crist, Jake Crist, Madman Fulton) is told that Dave, Jake and Fulton are banned from the building. Sami pulls Madman Fulton off of security, then tells the rest of oVe they have the night off.

At the treehouse, Desmond Xavier talks about a woman that he just met when Zachary Wentz' mom is brought up. All of a sudden, Fallah Bahh shows up. When all Fallah says is "Bahh," The Rascalz (Dezmond Xavier, Trey Miguel, Zachary Wentz) produce some marijuana, and Fallah Bahh is now speaking English and wearing glasses. He then says he is not true to himself unlike The Rascalz, and while they have each other's back, he let TJP crash and burn. The Rascalz let him know that he has to believe in himself and take care of business, and that he has to "risk it to get the biscuit." A more confident Fallah Bahh then leaves the treehouse.



Rosemary, Alexia Nicole and Jordynne Grace beat Taya Valkyrie, Kiera Hogan and Madison Rayne with an inside cradle from Jordynne to Taya after Kiera hurts her shoulder on a hurricanrana and Madison Rayne leaves Taya high and dry.



We hear from Rob Van Dam, who says that he came up with his own moves when everyone else got theirs from him, and that without him, there would be a lot less wrestling superstars right now. He also talks about how much bigger wrestlers were in vogue when he was making a career, then says he is tired of carrying Rhino and the whole ECW locker room and that he is one of a kind.

We see a video package for Michael Elgin vs. Fallah Bahh, which takes place next week.

Rich Swann and Willie Mack beat The Desi Hit Squad (Rohit Raju and Raj Singh).



Backstage, Rhino is aggressively looking for Rob Van Dam, then says he will rip him in half and finish him with a Gore at Turning Point.

We hear from Moose, who is on a golf course. He talks about his NFL career and his transition to professional wrestling, then says he proved he is the best MMA fighter of all time after beating Ken Shamrock. He then decides to show why he is the greatest golfer of all time, and try to hit a hole-in-one. When his ball disappears, he attacks one of the two men on the green, then places a ball in the hole. He then announces he will return to Impact next week.

Ken Shamrock shows up. Shamrock says he never thought he would be in a wrestling ring again until what happened with Moose. He says that he was bound to win, and that it hurt not to be able to do so. He says he has done a lot of soul searching to figure out what is next, but before he can mention what he ha come to a conclusion to, Joey Ryan suddenly shows up. Joey says that Shamrock has accomplished a lot in his career, then says that Shamrock has one more mountain to climb. Shamrock says he does know him, but Joey says he is the guy who's made wrestling fun again. Suddenly, Shamrock says "You're that penis guy!" He admits that he finds what Joey Ryan does pretty funny, then says he is a real fighter while Joey is a gimmick. Joey asks why he is afraid to "touch it" if he is just a gimmick, and asks if it is because it will tap him out faster than a Gracie choke. Shamrock says he was not here to announce his retirement, and instead, he is putting the locker room on notice and is willing to snap Joey's ankle in half. Joey takes the challenge for next week as "The World's Most Dangerous Man versus The World's Most Dangerous Manhood." Joey Ryan offers to shake his hand, and Shamrock shakes it. When Joey tries to put Shamrock's hand on his groin, however, Shamrock shoves Joey out of the ring.



We see a video package of Tessa Blanchard.

Ace Austin beats Eddie Edwards in a Street Fight after placing a piece of pipe in his wristband, backhanding Eddie and putting Eddie through a table.



The Impact Plus Flashback Moment of the Week is Havok vs. Su Yung in their recent Monster's Ball Match.

Backstage, a woman named Suzy - who looks like a cleaned-up, much nicer version of Su Yung - shows up and freaks everyone out. She does not know why she is here, but she feels like she should be here.

Backstage, Johnny Swinger tries to get Alisha Edwards booked onto a show - and hit on her - when Ace Austin shows up and tells Swinger to beat it. Afterwards, Ace Austin talks with Alisha about her not being at his party, but Alisha says things are complicated. Ace asks Alisha to put Eddie Edwards behind her and go out to dinner with him. Alisha agrees to do that next week.

Sami Callihan beats "The Machine" Brian Cage in a steel cage match to become Impact World Champion! After the match, Tessa Blanchard gets in the cage and has a staredown with Sami to end the show.

The show starts with a brawl between the team of Santana and Ortiz of The Latin-American Xchange and The Veterans of War (Mayweather and Wilcox) outside of the building.

Sienna is seated in the center of the ring. She calls herself the epitomy of a true champion, and says she has destroyed every obstacle Karen Jarrett has thrown at her. She says she will sit in the ring until she finds out who her opponent for her Knockouts title defense next week is. Karen shows up and says she never liked her and never will. Karen goes on to call Sienna the kind of woman other women hate. Sienna skips the formalities and wants to know who would be ready for her in a week, but Karen tells her that her opponent next week is always ready, and it happens to be Gail Kim. Gail says she sees Sienna running her mouth, and tells her she was only great six weeks ago. After Gail makes it clear she will retire as champion, Sienna strikes at Gail from behind, and this starts a brawl that referees have to stop.

Low-Ki tells Alberto El Patron he had an opportunity, but wasted it and paid the price. He says he will show him that he can be beaten. Lashley tells Matt Sydal he is in the ring tonight with some heavy hitters, and tells him he has been warned. He then tells Lee and Low-Ki they are associates, not partners.



We hear from Sonjay Dutt and Trevor Lee before their match at Destination X next week.



We hear from Jeff Jarrett concerning America's Top Team.



Dutch Mantell interviews Matt Sydal and Lashley for "Down and Dirty with Dutch." Lashley says he did not disrespect anybody, he merely reacted. He considers himself a "top 3 wrestler." Sydal says he has never put himself in one particular category, and does not rate himself as an X Division wrestler. Sydal says that just like Lashley, his resume speaks for himself, as he has faced giants. He rates himself within the top 3. Lashley and Sydal argue. Lashley says he will beat Sydal within an inch of life. Sydal says he comes in peace, but also to win. Lashley says he is tired of people stepping up, and if Sydal has a problem with him, he should step up. This leads to a near-brawl.

It seems to him that people are getting title shots as soon as they show up, and if anyone tries to get past him to a title, he will break them in half. He calls out Bruce Prichard, and demands to know when he will be getting his World title shot and who he has to face at Destination X.

El Patron says he is a leader, not a follower. Konnan asks El Patron if he has forgotten the problems he had with WWE and the problems he himself had with TNA, and asks him to join. El Patron says he has not forgotten, and thinks about it every day, but it is in the past and he is in a better place with better opportunities. El Patron tells Konnan his problem is that he has become a bitter man. As for himself, he will stay a loner. El Patron tells Konnan his problem is that he has become a bitter man.
