ROLL CALL OF CURRENT CHAMPIONS

Impact World Champion: Kenny Omega
Well, Omega backed up what he said and won the title. Other than a Swann re-match, there are no obvious challengers. Also the AEW World Champion and AAA Mega Champion.

Impact World Tag Team Champions: David Finlay & Juice Robinson
FinJuice does it again! The duo from NJPW beat the Good Brothers again, sending them to the back of the line. With New Japan cancelling some shows in Tokyo, might their reign last a little while longer? My guess for challengers is a team in Violent By Design, perhaps Joe Doering and Rhino.

Impact X-Division Champion: Josh Alexander
While not being a flippy guy, the Walking Weapon won the X-Division title from noted flippy guy Ace Austin in a fun match also involving TJP. There are plenty of guys who could reasonably challenge Alexander, but Ace Austin getting a rematch will probably be first in line.

Impact Knockouts Champion: Deonna Purazzo
The Virtuosa has defeated all challengers to her title, and Tenille Dashwood has been added to the list of the fallen. The return of Taylor Wilde makes Purazzo's next challenger obvious.

Impact Knockouts Tag Team Champions: Rachael Ellering & Jordynne Grace
Team Beef took down Fine N Flava at Rebellion in what was Ellering's third or fourth match overall since coming back from a knee injury. I could see Kimber Lee eventually getting involved in a match down the line, should the rematch with Hogan and Steelz go the current champs' way.

NEXT PAY-PER-VIEW EVENT: SLAMMIVERSARY XIX
This July, possibly at Skyway Studios due to COVID-19 still being a thing.

Someone in the PPV GDT said something along the lines of "modern Eddie Edwards looks like a man whose gimmick is "heard too much Dropkick Murphys"" and I've been thinking about it ever since lol

Eddie Edwards without Davey Richards needs a gimmick, so why not play into his Boston-ness?

So he's probably either facing Eddie Edwards or Willie Mack. If it's Willie Mack I'm gonna subscribe to Impact+.

I’d bet it’s a Swann rematch.

I think the Impact Wrestling/AEW crossover will keep going as long as the promotions can't tour safely, so I'd say Bound For Glory is a reasonable time for Omega to drop the belt.

Would they have taped this right after the PPV or how does it work?

I would assume they did tapings Monday and Tuesday, maybe some stuff yesterday as well. The only good thing about this COVID-19 pandemic is that you can tape things out of order and there's no crowd to confuse or bore.

It does seem like they're pushing Moose for it by having him interact a ton with Don Callis, but they could certainly save that for later.

If anything, I’d be inclined to believe Moose sides with the Elite.

so let me get this straight

impact is doing a 60-minute iron man for the x division belt
on free tv instead of their upcoming ppv
except the majority of the match is on a preshow before the free tv
and this whole thing features tjp

jesus christ

1. Against All Odds is an Impact+ event, not a PPV
2. I’m not sure what your complaint is

Considering their 90-day no compete clause is up just before Slammiversary, I’d give even odds that they appear ASAP. Hell, I could see Impact Wrestling taping some stuff on July 14th for the show airing the next night just to squeeze as much as they can in.

It looks like Satoshi Kojima is going to be staying stateside a bit longer - he's got a match against Rhino this Thursday where if Kojima wins, he and Eddie Edwards get a tag team title shot at Slammiversary.

I’m pretty sure there was a press release this past year from Impact Wrestling saying they turned a profit for what might have been the first time ever, so whatever they’re doing is working.
