It’s a shame Impact Wrestling lost their Australian TV distribution. It makes it a bit hard to keep up, especially with the AEW crossover.
But the crossover may be they key. Following on from my last post, here’s a scenario that could make Impact relevant again.
Let’s have Kenny Omega issue an open challenge for the Impact World Title. Have Erick (Rowan) Redbeard accept, and lose in a hard fought 15+ minute match.
The next week, Omega, feeling cocky, issues another open challenge, Redbeard comes down again, but Omega brushes him off, Redbeard says he is here just to introduce the new challenger - Braun Strowman (with whatever new name he may have).
Omega seems to have the upper hand before the lights go out, and some kind of Bray Wyatt interference distracts Omega to give Braun the title. After the match, Braun, Erick and Bray congregate in the ring, signifying, dare I say it, a new world order of professional wrestling….
Just a thought - and it probably will never happen.
My money is on Bray and Braun both going back to WWE before the year is out….
