7 Ups & 4 Downs From This Week's Impact Wrestling (Aug 2)
Downs...
4. Mean Girls
The story with Madison Rayne and Kiera Hogan being the mean girls of the Knockouts division is starting to run its course at this stage. It might be leading to something further down the line, but will it really be worth the wait?
A new girl entered the locker room (she didn't have a name, but she's since been revealed as Alexia Nicole), and sat in what was apparently Kiera's seat, before Madison walked over and had a go at the unnamed lady for not introducing herself. This would have been fine if the duo ganged up on the new face but instead, they started to bicker amongst themselves. One week, they're on the same page taking out Jordynne Grace and then the next, they're fighting over who gets to sit in a particular seat.
The only person who really gained something from this segment was the mysterious new woman. She challenged either Hogan or Rayne to fight her in the ring before leaving. Rayne has accepted the challenge for the next episode, so that's something. Expect Kiera to get involved because why would she not?
