7 Ups & 5 Downs From This Week's Impact Wrestling (Jul 26)

4. Entertaining X Division Clash

The match between Rob Van Dam and Willie Mack was a great example of how 'The Whole F'N Show' should be utilised within Impact. He doesn't need to be featured in these high-profile matches; all he needs to do is show that he can still hang with today's stars of the X division. Judging by what we saw here, he more than certainly can.

It was a bit of a slow start to the match with some limb-based offence for a few short minutes, but things soon picked up thereafter. There were dives off the ring apron, standing moonsaults from the larger Mack, Rolling Thunders, the lot. A Five Star Frog Splash would mark the culmination of the exhilarating contest as RVD picked up a victory, but Willie Mack still looked incredible even in defeat.

While the match may not mean anything in the long-run, it was still a fun one to watch. Sometimes, that's all you need from your wrestling matches.
