8 Ups & 2 Downs From IMPACT Wrestling (22 April)
Moose returns, Rachael Ellering arrives, and Rebellion predictions are made.
The 2021 Rebellion pay-per-view is perhaps the most important night in IMPACT Wrestling history. They have to nail it from start to finish, but it really begins on the go-home episode of television.
Aside from one or two what-the-hell-was-that moments, they delivered a quality episode. A good start to Rebellion weekend.
Arguably the biggest talking point coming away from the episode was the return of Moose for the first time in over a month - since 13 March, to be precise. He confronted Rich Swann following the World Champion's interaction via satellite with Kenny Omega and Don Callis, saying that he's not done with the World Championship scene quite yet.
In other notable happenings, former NXT star Rachael Ellering made her IMPACT debut as Jordynne Grace's new tag team partner, Eric Young and Eddie Edwards had a class main event, The Good Brothers found their Rebellion momentum by defeating Crazzy Steve and Black Taurus of Decay, multiple promo packages aired featuring Brian Myers, Trey Miguel, and others, and numerous members of the IMPACT roster placed their predictions for Swann and Omega's title vs. title bout on 25 April.
