Everett's turn must have been during the commercial before the match.

Good for Johnny Impact, wrestling two matches this week. Bit of a mess this week of what I saw, but that's *whatever the name of this company is now* for you... In lieu of a Victory Road thread I have to say what I saw was essentially a decent episode of Impact, save for a weak main event. Eli Drake doing his best to be a cheap imitation of Ric Flair. Random Andrew Everett heel turn and ‘follow the Trevor’ attire change too. Why? Not sure if I actually want to know, though. Obligatory ‘put all the women feuding into the same match’ moment. Check. What was Moose looking to accomplish? Can’t help but make AmbRollins comparisons to this Storm/EC3 stuff. Shame about LAX. When they came back it was cool but now it’s dire IMO, even moreso when you know that Low Ki buggered off.

The wrestling is decent but the product is bland, almost ROH TV levels of bland.

Eli Drake is a better world champion than Brock Lesnar or Jinder Mahal

When were these shows taped? Rosemary has been a pretty prominent character on the show, for someone who was injured in Mexico.
I assume these were all taped before Triple Mania.

They were definitely taped before TripleMania, at least the ones featuring Rosemary. Could be wrong, but I think they were taped in late-August.

Havent even got all the way through the show yet, but did Grado just call Parks a - (apparently the word he used is sensored here, yano words have 2 meanings..) I remember Desmond Wolfe was calling people window lickers, and wondered how he got away with that, I guess window lickers is a British term?...

Not sure if he did But seeing Grados promo from last night sounded like a toned down promo done in ICW, where's only a quarter of the cursing was in a promo instead of the ususl hslf the promo being cursing

The American Top Team segment was exciting last night. Though, it remains to be seen if Impact has enough clout left on its roster to make the ultimate payoff satisfying dramatically. Still, Dan Lambert and Bobby Lashley performed very well.

Still, Dan Lambert and Bobby Lashley performed very well. Dan Lambert was outstanding on the mic, dropped some serious wrestling knowledge and wasnt fazed by the crowd chants that wouldve thrown off most other people. I dont like Moose, but he and Stephan Bonnar have to get their come uppance, especially with Lashley leaving.

Well I commend Impact on 1 Thing, they made me excited for Grado vs Abyss.

Really sad that the company isn't popular right now, Eli Drake is in the running for best promo in the business atm. No one does it as well as he does it, as consistently as he does it.

So the last Impact before their “WrestleMania” features pre-taped matches from other promotions?
... I can’t. Hahaha

Hahaha I'll agree that the Impact before BFG should not have taped matches from different promotions. The show actually should have been more build, less in ring time. I have been enjoying the use of pre taped matches from different promotions however. Its not something new, but something we haven't seen in a while

Impact has announced that Taya Valkyrie will not be at Bound for Glory due to personal reasons.

Fun episode of IMPACT tonight, hilarious how Johnny IMPACT was about to dive but had to wait because the extra talents were late. El Hijo Del Fantasma and Eddie Edwards tore it down. I'm liking this push for Petey.

Drake/Petey was a damn decent match. Really enjoyed it, as was the opening multi man X Divison match
