The latest episode of Impact Wrestling closed with the best wrestling segment on television of the week, as Su Yung trapped Rosemary in a casket with the Knockouts Champion, Allie, watching. Did Yung make the list this week after missing out in the previous edition of the Impact power rankings?

Su Yung has drawn comparisons to the Undertaker for her “Undead Bride” gimmick, which includes a haunting entrance, undead brides as minions, and caskets. But she also draws inspiration from so many other wrestling characters, even “misting” others.

There’s no doubt that Yung is a rising star on Impact, but she isn’t the only member of the Knockouts Division making a name for herself. This week’s power rankings piece features four female wrestlers, so read through it to find out who made the cut.

10. Tessa Blanchard

It didn’t take long for Tessa Blanchard to win me over, because she made an, ahem, impact from the very moment she debuted during the Redemption Pay Per View. Following her appearance, Blanchard created plenty of hype, and she did an excellent job of adding to that on last week’s episode of Impact.

At Redemption, Blanchard shined on the announce team, taking the spotlight away from Taya Valkyrie and Kiera Hogan during their match. Hogan took issue to this, calling out Blanchard before her rematch with Valkyrie, who won at Redemption, on television. Blanchard beat the crap out of Hogan in response, ruining the match and showcasing just why she could be up there with Eli Drake as one of Impact’s top heels in the future.

9. Moose

Jimmy Jacobs has clearly put a target on the back of Impact Wrestling’s top babyfaces, as he aims to take over the company with his “monster” Kongo Kong. After Kong destroyed Johnny Impact’s face weeks ago via a lawn dart to the steel steps (I’m still shook, by the way), he will face Moose on Impact next week. “Mr. Impact” may not win this match, but I’m sure the majority of people watching at home will be rooting for the former PWI Rookie of the Year to nab a defining victory over the monster.
