5 Ups & 5 Downs From Impact Wrestling (26 Jan)

4. And So It Continues

Ahead of his non-title bout vs. TJP next Tuesday, former X Division Champion Rohit Raju was shown backstage talking to a mystery figure who will seemingly be watching 'The Desi Hitman's' back against the current champion. Who this man is remains to be seen, but it gives off the indication that this rivalry will be continuing past next week.

Keep in mind, this story has been going on since the summer, and you have to ponder the question - why is this being dragged out for so long? Granted, it hasn't necessarily been only Rohit and TJP going at each other since the story started, as both men have also gotten involved with other members of the roster, however, it's nearly been half a year (!) since all this started. There is no need for this now. TJP is Manik (shock, horror, etc.), Rohit is angry, they can have a match, and that should be it. Why this isn't even a title contest is a mystery, really.

Things could be worse, of course; the mystery man could be a returning Mahabali Shera.
