3 Ups & 4 Downs From Last Night's Impact Wrestling (May 3)

Downs...

4. Earn Your Opportunities

With her victory over Jordynne Grace, Taya Valkyrie remains our Knockouts Champion, which leaves one question she demands an answer to - who's left? Before we get on to what happened on the episode, let's see who she hasn't defeated yet (according to the Impact roster page). Alisha Edwards, Katarina, Kiera Hogan, Scarlett Bordeaux, and Su Yung haven't had a title match while Taya's been champ.

Getting back to the episode though, as Madison Rayne seemingly stepped forward to challenge her to a title match. Even though she just asked who's left for her to beat (which would insinuate she wants some competition), Taya declined The Queen Bee's offer to a championship match, and the pair will instead face off in non-title competition. So much for wanting someone to provide a real threat to her title.

These two have faced off in non-title contests in the recent past, with Madison Rayne coming out on the other end 2-0. A third victory over the champion would surely put her in contention for the championship.
