Impact Wrestling: 3 Potential Challengers for Brian Cage’s X Division Championship

At Slammiversary XVI, Brian Cage was crowned Impact Wrestling’s X Division Champion, defeating Matt Sydal in a high-flying and dynamic match. Now that he’s got his prize, what’s in store for Cage and the future of the X Division Championship?

When he debuted on Impact Wrestling in February, Brian Cage oozed the “it factor”. No matter which way you looked at the guy, you can tell that wherever Impact booking took him, he was destined to be a stand-out performer.

It was proven last Sunday at Slammiversary XVI that Cage’s time to shine is upon us, as the “Weapon X” of Impact Wrestling became the apex of the X Division by winning the X Division Championship.

Now, while Cage may very well be untouchable, that doesn’t mean that there isn’t a long list of people on the Impact roster who aren’t deserving of a shot at Cage’s championship. Fresh out of Slammiversary, Impact has an opportunity to start fresh and find new competitors ready for the challenge that is Brian Cage.

Here’s a list in (no particular order) of Impact wrestlers who could give Cage a run for his money and give us viewers a new, entertaining feud as a challenger (and even a winner) for the X Division Championship.
