JOHNNY IMPACT IS NEW WORLD CHAMPION IN IMPACT WRESTLING

October 15, 2018

Johnny Impact is the new World Champion in Impact Wrestling, after beating Austin Aries in the main event of their Bound For Glory pay-per-view event.   It is the first World Championship in the federation for Impact, who wrestled as John Morrison in the WWE for many years, most notably alongside The Miz as tag team champions, and as Johnny Mundo in Lucha Libre.

Impact won the match with his signature finisher, the shooting star press, after battling Aries for more than twenty minutes.  His celebration was somewhat soured by Aries no-selling the move after the match, and cursing the fans and the commentators.  While this may be a worked shoot, it must be noted that Aries’ contract with Impact Wrestling expired after the event.
