4 Ups & 3 Downs From This Week's Impact Wrestling (Jan 18)

1. Take No For An Answer

Sami Callihan's mission to get Rich Swann in oVe lingered on this week, with the X Division Champion again refusing the offer. You'd think The Draw would've given up by now, seeing as Swann has refused week in and week out. Clearly, he's desperate to get a new member in the group, despite Rich not being from Ohio.

It's tiring seeing Sami repeat the same thing over and over. We know exactly what's coming each time he gets on the mic to Swann. For all we know, it may just be a ploy to get close to the champ in the hopes of being given a future championship match. If that is indeed what Callihan is after though, surely there are other ways of going about it?

No-one knows how long Sami will keep this going. It could be weeks, months, maybe even years (please no). If it doesn't culminate with either at least one singles match between the pair or Rich joining oVe, then was there even a point to the whole thing?
