Impact Wrestling 5 Takeways: Fight All Over Canada
By Dj Beal
All of the fallout from Bound for Glory as Impact Wrestling broadcasts their first show from Canada
This weeks show was the fallout from Bound for Glory. The show began how Bound for Glory ended with Eli Drake in the middle of the ring as the Grand Championship. Although the champ has the night off, he has a challenger waiting for him next week. Another remnant from this match was the heat between Johnny Impact and Alberto El Patron. This personal animosity will look to be settled tonight.
The X-Division was given a proper platform to show their skill as they should have every week. After a five way match left Trevor Lee as the X-Division Champion, any match is important in the division. Veterans Matt Sydal and Sonjay Dutt opened the show with an incredible X-Division match. This match could determine a new number one contender.
Eddie Edwards defends his GHC Heavyweight Championship for the first time in Impact Wrestling. His opponent is a star in AAA, El Hijo de Fantasma. With all the talent that these two guys have, this is set to be one of the best matches of the year. Can Fantasma shock the Impact fans and win the GHC Championship in enemy territory?
Sami Callihan made his official in-ring debut tonight as a member of Ohio Versus Everything. He was able to showcase all of his skills with his brothers from Ohio. Also, Allie continues to grow as a character as she was in action at Border City Wrestling in Canada. This show emanated from Canada and there was plenty to talk about after Bound for Glory.
