I really wish they would do more with Eli Drake he's a top player in my eyes. the potential is there but I find his schtick overwhelmingly forced and overdone. if he reeled it back a bit and saved the mass intensity for the right moments I think he’d fare better |

I’m just catching up now from last week’s impact
- excellent opener from Mack and Swann, I like how each impact you can expect a solid 15 mins given to an opening match
- Sami callihan’s whole group needs a gym membership
- the rivalry video quality has gone waaay up imo. they should get some rights to have actual music a bit more often
- Morrison makes a great champion
- the Eddie Edwards/moose feud was well built
I feel like Cyrus has taken what he saw working from wwf 1997 Raw programming and ecw backstage vignettes and is trying to combine those things, and it’s working in a lot of ways. I do feel the lax feud is dead in the water though and they’re scraping the barrel with konnans involvement.

Another solid show last night. 3 weeks in a row since moving to 10pm
Lucha Bros vs OGz
Jordynne Grace debut. Wow she's thick...
Cage vs OHIO
Taya wants Tessa again
Moose vs Eddie was intense
Allie turning to the Darkness?
E-Li-Drake takes out his anger
Impact vs Kross was a great match. Loving Kross's character more and more.

that was how you open a wrestling program - an awesome video package hyping the main event, establishing the face champion and heel threat. really great stuff.
starting the night off with a tag match, especially involving the lucha brothers, is a great move.
at this point I can’t figure out why more people aren’t into the current impact product.

I totally agree that Impact has been a great show since moving to 10pm. I always stay up and watch it. More fast paced, hard hitting action and less comedy-crap fill ins.. |

Killer Kross liked my comment on an Instagram post stating that he should get another shot at the championship. LMAO

Johnny Impact and Matt Sydal? Is this an episode of Smackdown I missed in 2009?

just watched the bcw 25 year anniversary show.
very cool to see talent like Brent banks, spinelli, and other smash/bfs talent getting big time exposure.
I feel as if the old impact ring is now bcw’s and they use a smaller one for the impact tours. just me speculating.
Edwards/moose was a good blowoff match.

Pretty bummed Eli Drake is stuck in some Lawleresque crusade against hardcore wrestling. Like, I know Big Johnny and Luke Cage are the big deals right now but Drake needs more than this.

Last night's show was solid again.
Tessa and Taya both looked great like always. Who is Ray Lynn?
The Rascals are coming soon, should they be called the "Smoke Show" lol
LAX vs KM/Bahh was good. Fallah Bahh is a star in the making.
Heather Monroe, I like her already. Plus Allie is more dark and evil which is also hotter.
E-Li-Drake is gold and it was good seeing Dreamer.
Moose-Alisha-Eddie was good.
Sydal vs Impact was great. Kross is so awesome
Jordynne vs Katarina 2 coming soon! The more I see Thick Mama Plump the better...
Cage vs Sami was hard hitting. Option C!!!

I hear ya, but I think they’re trying not to put the cart before the horse and get him over as a major star before putting him in major programs - which despite the company’s efforts, they’re yet to accomplish. but the promo from this Thursday and older loved talent putting him over may be a great start to that. impact was good although I’d argue not as well organized as the last few week’s. I found a lot of the Scarlett vignettes to be needless and add nothing. sydal/Johnny was solid. Johnny’s title run has been going well. |

If Option A is keeping the X Division Championship and Option C is vacating it for a World title shot, then what the hell is Option B?

Option A: Vacate X-Division Title In Exchange For A World Championship Match Option B: Keep X-Division Title Option C: Vacate X-Division Title In Exchange For A World Championship Match AND Set The Precedent That Whomever Is The X-Division Champion Heading Into Destination X Can Do The Same |

Ultimate X should be awesome and interesting to see who wins.
Taya vs Tessa at Homecoming should be great again.
I think next week Jordynne Grace and Katarina are supposed to have their rematch. I wish Katarina would become Winter again..

I love killer cross’s character. taking cage’s suplex and then responding in the way he did was original and badass.

Love how raven is back in any capacity,
seeing him in the eddie segment was enough,
but to see him and eli do a segment after was amazing more so to me, great segment.
and now to see him back i a ring ;-; i hope to see the most out of his brain than his body this run, he is a wrestling scientist!

Mackenzie Mitchell quit Impact and the TV tapings after Homecoming were her last show. She got tired of Moose hitting on her so she left.  |
