11 Ups & 5 Downs From Impact Wrestling (May 12)
Tournament actions kicks into high gear with the wrong two stars advancing forward.
The era of professional wrestling without crowds has been a strange one to say the least, but at least the promotions still putting on shows remain capable of producing top-quality entertainment for our viewing pleasure. In particular, Impact Wrestling.
Since adapting to the concept about a month ago, beginning with their Rebellion 'pay-per-view', the company have had some of their greatest shows in recent memory. This week's episode was no different, with a handful of rather good matches, especially the main event pitting Moose against Suicide. Other matches included Kimber Lee vs. Havok and Kylie Rae vs. Tasha Steelz, both of which were exceptionally great under the circumstances. It's a repeated comment on here that the Knockouts division is at an all-time high right now, and these two matches acted as evidence to further support that fact.
Elsewhere, the tournament to crown Tessa Blanchard's next World Championship challenger began on a downer with two wrong winners, The North made another successful championship defence against another of Canada's so-called greatest tandems, Cody Deaner checked in from kwaranteen, and Rosemary may be on her way towards a potential partner in John E.
