Impact Wrestling Slammiversary 2019: 7 Results Predictions

The hype for Slammiversary began with this very match when Michael Elgin debuted at Rebellion following Brian Cage's World Championship victory over Johnny Impact. Even though Cage was injured during the bulk of the time period between then and now with back issues, the match has still had a fairly decent build.

For all his wrongdoings away from the ring, Elgin is a phenomenal beast inside the squared circle. An agile man for his size, 'Big Mike' isn't afraid to go high risk when the time calls for it. The same can be said for 'The Machine'. As we know though, both men's main strength comes from, well, their brute strength. From suplexes to powerbombs, both Cage and Elgin will knock lumps out of each other when the time comes for it.

It'll be a different type of World Championship match than what we've had in recent times as the last few champs before Cage (Johnny Impact, Austin Aries, Pentagon Jr., etc.) have all used the high flying style. While there may be one or two dives, it'll mainly be slams and strikes in this one.

Prediction: After a lengthy battle, Brian Cage will remain champion after overcoming any back-related onslaught from his challenger.
