The pyro explodes throughout the Wachovia Centre in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as IMPACT Pro Wrestling returns! It’s the return night for IPW after a long hiatus, IMPACT returns, and what a card there is for tonight’s show. We have the Heavyweight Championship on the line as Christian Cage defends against Kurt Angle in what should be a great match. Also…there will be a first ever ‘Money in the bank’ ladder match. Six of IPW’s top stars will be wrestling in a ladder match to determine the number 1 contender for either the IMPACT pro wrestling Heavyweight Championship or the World Championship and a shot at 1 of those belts, within the next year. Also there is a Heatwave rematch between ‘The Phenomenal’ AJ Styles taking on HBK Shawn Michaels. What a match! So many great matches, lets kick IMPACT off.
To open the show up, the World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar comes to the ring and gloats about his World Championship win against Batista, saying how he is the best pure athlete in IPW at the moment. He talks about how he humiliated Batista at Heatwave by beating him in the middle of the ring in front of millions of people. Lesnar goes on to say that in his mind there is nobody in IPW who he cannot beat until suddenly Burchill’s music hits the arena. Lesnar looks shocked as Burchill interrupts him and questions him about the fact that he can beat anybody in IPW. Burchill tells Lesnar that he has never beaten Burchill and that Burchill wants Lesnar in a one on one match. Lesnar tells Burchill that he isn’t even in Lesnar’s league and that he will not face Burchill until he proves to him that he is worthy of getting in the ring with Brock Lesnar. Burchill ss and says that if he wins the ‘Money in the bank’ match…he is coming for Lesnar’s championship. Burchill throws the microphone down and heads to the back as Lesnar is left in the ring looking a little concerned, maybe even a bit scared!
