Infinity Land Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Impact is where Ring of Honor were during the Sinclair era. A wrestling company owned by a broadcaster that just want cheap dependable content for their channels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted April 24, 2022 Author Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2022 Rebellion was a good show. Josh Vs Moose felt like a huge match when they were in the ring before the start. Moose's dropkick is almost as good as Okada's. Maclin looked daft in his Punisher/Papa Shango makeup, and Tasha Steelz looking like she'd just come from a children's party with her lion makeup on. Amy idea why Gresham couldn't be there to wrestle Eddie Edwards? Is he injured? Jonah & Ishii was quality. Big meaty men slapping meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jazzy G Posted April 24, 2022 Author Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2022 That's a shame. Hopefully it's not too serious and they can have the match at Under Siege. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 The Gresham story took a twist as he turned up in Canada last night. There's the usual inter-promotional politicking conspiracy theorists. As well as he wasn't cleared by the NY Athletic Commission. I'm sure someone that reports the "news" will have a story about what happened soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members garynysmon Posted April 24, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2022 My immediate thought was that Impact may be a bit more concerned about concussions than the indy feds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nick James Posted April 24, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted April 24, 2022 Yeah, I would imagine it's more that he wasn't cleared by Impact or they didn't want to take the risk so he took a booking elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butch2000 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Overall going into the main event it was a poor show. What a main event! Â Josh Alexander is absolutely fucking splendid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Jazzy G Posted April 25, 2022 Author Paid Members Share Posted April 25, 2022 It was fine. Not as good as Hard To Kill. The 8 team elimination spent far too long treading water, and seemed more to further the Honor No More/Bullet Club feud they seem to be building to. Purazzo Vs Taya Valkyrie didn't seem to click as well as it should have, and felt a little clunky in places. It's certainly not their best show of the year.

Paid Members garynysmon Posted April 26, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted April 26, 2022 Just caught up on Rebellion. Yeah, there was a cracking 90 minute ppv there if you fast forward through some of the shite in the middle. I expected more from both women's matches tbh, they didn't do it for me personally. Nice to see Taya back where she belongs though. LOVED the main event though. A proper hoss match that didn't feel like it dragged at all. My only concern was the bare buckle bomb at the end....ouch. I could do without ever seeing one of those again. My biggest gripe in regards production is the lighting. I know Impact isn't filling MSG anytime soon but there was a decent crowd there. Sadly, no one watching on TV would be any the wiser as nothing beyond the third row is ever shown.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Nick James Posted April 27, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted April 27, 2022 (edited) I wonder if this is Visa related, I remember they both had issues when they were released from WWE. Shame if they step away completely, both of them have great charisma and McKay has terrific comedic timing.

TildeGuy~! Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Probably earning more from their only fans accounts then at Impact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured the same, impact was just to let people know that they were around and it served a purpose but it was never for the long haul. They will likely reappear every now and again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members garynysmon Posted April 29, 2022 Paid Members Share Posted April 29, 2022 If you're looking to get into acting, I suppose turning up with a black eye isn't a good look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TildeGuy~! Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Hopefully it’s a comedy, going off her WWE run and her podcast she seems like a barrel of laughs, good luck to her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
