Impact Wrestling 5 Takeaways From Last Week Before Tonight’s Show
By Dj Beal
6 Man Tag Team Action
Last week, KM was bullying Richard Justice and Fallah Bahh came to his rescue. The Cult of Lee joined the beat down on the side of KM. Bahh uses his size, ironically enough, to his advantage early in this match. Justice gets into the match as he takes out Lee and Konley, setting his sights on KM. The Cult of Lee get involved as the Standby Wrestler begins to get isolated.
Justice fights out of the opposing corner allowing Tyrus to get into the match. Tyrus takes out everyone on the other team. It starts to break down in the Impact Zone as everyone is in the ring. Richard Justice takes out the Cult of Lee with a falling clothesline to the outside. This leaves KM in the middle of the ring with Tyrus and Fallah Bahh. Tyrus takes out KM to set up Bahh for the finish as he looks for his revenge. Bahh hits the Bonzi drop on KM to pick up the victory for his team.
This match was practically a filler to cool down the crowd. It could also be included in the comedic relief section of the show. The match was decent overall but I’m not sure if it was needed. This show thus far has been average to below at best so adding this match in makes it just as average. Luckily, the main event is a demon’s dance match and should highlight the show.
The First Ever Demon’s Dance
Taya Valkyrie and Rosemary have been rivals for close to a year. When Valkyrie had to take some time off, it gave it time to brew. Since then, these two have been locked in with each other over the past month. This demon’s dance, similar to a monster’s ball, should provide a peak to this feud. Unfortunately, this rivalry has been rushed since the two have been back in the same vicinity.
Valkyrie jumps on Rosemary early but there is no one in control early in this one. The fight goes onto the ramp but it’s Taya Valkyrie who finds her offense. She started by using the guard rail but then it’s chairs to come into play. Rosemary uses her experience to bring in more dangerous weapons into the dance. Valkyrie continues her control until she is sent careening into a ladder into the corner.
When the weapons come into play, Rosemary takes gains the advantage in this match. Valkyrie looks to use the table that Rosemary brought into play. These two battled on the top turnbuckle over that table until Rosemary strikes the final blow. Rosemary hits a piledriver through the table to end this mach and potentially this rivalry with Taya Valkyrie.
