8 Ups & 3 Downs From IMPACT Wrestling (1 July)

1. Hug It Out

Let's assume the will they, won't they break up arc for Jordynne Grace and Rachael Ellering has reached an end. If this was the end game from day one, then why was it dragged out for close to two months just to have them remain a team?

Grace came to Jazz and Ellering's aid as they were ambushed by Tenille Dashwood and Kaleb With A K following the latter's loss to Tenille. The beatdown in itself was weak, with Kaleb barely keeping Jazz's arms back as she aimlessly wailed away at Tenille. 'Thicc Mama Pump' disposing of the pair of them, then slapping Rachael's hand away and hugging her was the worse possible route to conclude this story.

There were so many possibilities for this story if Jordynne had turned heel on Rachael. Heel Jordynne Grace simply makes sense; she already wrestles that way in that she's often overly vicious in her matches. A marquee bout between the pair, likely at Slammiversary, seemed on the cards for weeks.

Again, perhaps this isn't the end, but if it still continues after this, it's laughable, as if it wasn't already. There's no way it can, right? Right?!
