9 Ups & 4 Downs From This Week's Impact Wrestling (Aug 16)
6. Trick Up His Sleeve
Ace Austin really will not stop at anything to get on the nerves of Eddie Edwards, will he?
As if it wasn't already bad enough that Ace stated he wanted to 'bang' Eddie's wife Alisha, he came in this week with a foolproof plan. Following a brief conversation between the two moments before, when Alisha said she'd speak to her husband, Ace proceeded to lay on the ground as if he'd been attacked. Who found him first? Alisha Edwards.
As Eddie came out of nowhere and saw what he thought was Alisha and Ace making out, he went wild before being restrained. The icing on the cake here was when Ace pulled out a card from his jacket. It was all part of his plan to break the relationship between the Edwardses.
Without question, this is one of the best rivalries going in Impact right now. The intensity levels appear to turn up a notch every single week as Ace Austin continues finding ways to irritate the former World Champion. Surely, it's leading to a big payoff when Alisha realises Eddie was right all along. When that moment comes, it'll all be worth it.
