Impact Report, 10/27/20

Tonight’s show starts with a recap of Bound For Glory.  What a crazy night it was.  Su Yung is your new Knockouts Champion and Rich Swann is the new World Champion.

Backstage the show begins with Swann being attacked by Eric Young.  EY drags Swann inside the arena, but Swann turns the tide and the two fight back and forth all over ringside.  Swann is in street clothes.  Josh and Madison make the claim EY is even more insane since he lost his championship.  EY chokes Swann with his shirt.  He then tosses Swann in the ring.  Swann connects with a superkick, but gets crotched on the top rope right after.  As he lays prone, security and Scott D’Amore run in the ring to stop the fight.  D’Amore pleads with EY to calm down.  EY wants his rematch.  D’Amore tells him he isn’t getting his match.  Swann begs D’Amore to give him his championship match right now.  D’Amore asks if he is sure.  Swann confirms and D’Amore calls for the match to happen.

Match 1.  Impact World Champion, Rich Swann VS Eric Young

EY storms the ring and knocks Swann off the top rope.  EY then goes for a splash off the top himself.  Swann rolls out of the way and EY lands badly.  Swann connects with a clothesline, flipping leg drop and a superkick.  Swann then hits a rolling splash.  EY catches a flying Swann and turns it into a Powerbomb.  EY chops Swann, but Swann connects with another kick.  He then hits a handspring cutter.  After a Phoenix Splash, EY is done.

Winner and still your Impact World Champion, Rich Swann

That was a quick match, but hard hitting.  A very nice way to start the show for sure.

Rich celebrates his win, as he holds the belt for all to see, walking up the ramp.

Josh and Madison set up tonights show.

We then go to Havok and Naveah.  Havok walks out of a dark room and says he is back.. (Father James Mitchell)  Naveah says she has a bad feeling about this as we take our first commercial break.

Backstage all the women are pounding on D’Amore’s door about the ladies tag team tournament.  Tasha and Kiera pick a fight with Alisha because nobody wants to be her partner apparently.  Jordynne Grace comes and says she will be her partner.  They challenge Tasha and Kiera to a match tonight!  Alisha is so execited she breaks out in song.

Match 2.  Hardcore Halloween Match.  Brian Myers VS Tommy Dreamer

Myers heads out first.  He is in street clothes.  Myers even has a shirt with he and Dreamer’s face on it.

Dreamer comes out with Road Warrior Animal’s face paint and shirt on.  He is wearing spikes shoulder pads.  He even gave himself a the Animal classic Mohawk.  (Very cool tribute by Tommy.)

Myers and Dreamer look to continue this feud.  The match goes right to the outside.  Dreamer suplexes Myers on the ramp, then goes for a shirt to choke Myers with.  Dreamer tries to rub Myers face on the Spikes on his shoulder pads that are sitting ringside.  Myers escapes, but gets smashed with a metal walker, over the back.  Dreamer puts a loaded garbage can in the ring.  It apparently has something heavy in it.  He then hits Myers with the ring bell.  Myers fights his way back into the match.   He eventually crotches Tommy on the barricade.  Myers then uses a metal garbage can that was on the arena floor on Tommys head.  He then connects with a wet floor sign that completely crushes Tommy as he was jumping off the ring apron.

After a commercial break, Myers is in the ring using a Kendo stick to the throat of Dreamer.  Myers then hits a back suplex for a one count.  Myers then gets an apple and bites it and spits in at Dreamer.  Myers then gets a chair and sets it up in the ring and hits a drop to hold off the ropes, that sends Dreamer’s face to the chair.  Myers lays on Dreamer with a side headlock until Tommy stands out.  Dreamer starts his Dusty series of flip, flop and fly.  Myers is now realing, but cuts off Dreamer just before he finishes the last elbow with a kick, but Tommy fights it off.   Dreamer hits a clothesline and a cutter for a count of two.  Dreamer gets a sign and slams it on the back of Myers.  Dreamer finds a bag and spills it in the center of the ring to find candy corn and thumb tacks.  Dreamer climbs the ropes and Myers tries to fight back.  He looks to Superplex Tommy onto the tacks, but Tommy bites him and pushes him onto the candy corn and tacks!  WOW.  That fall was from the second rope.  That had to hurt.   Dreamer gets a count of two….

Dreamer gets a table and brings it in the ring.  He puts in the corner.  Myers shoulder blocks him while he wasn’t looking and Tommy falls into the tacks.  He yells loudly as Myers amps himself up and grabs the Kendo stick.  He tells Dreamer he is going to end his career.  Just then Swoggle (formerly Hornswoggle from WWE) crawls from in the loaded garbage can Dreamer put in the ring in the beginning of the match.  Swoggle has BBQ tongs and he uses them on Myers crotch.  LOL.  He squeezes.  Dreamer picks Myers up and hits the Death Valley Driver threw the table for the win.

Winner.  Tommy Dreamer (with Swoggle)

Swoggle and Dreamer stand tall in the ring and eat candy corn.

Backstage Heath and Rhino are interviewed.  Rhino is proudly holding his Call Your Shot Gauntlet Match Trophy.  Rhino says after with his win, he is going to call his shot by going for the tag straps with Heath, once he is healthy.  Rhino not only won the match, he one his contract.  He is going to get healthy and sign his contract next week.  He isn’t hurt.  (Heath is clearly hurt.  They are trying to hide his injury a bit.)

Backstage elsewhere, Fallah is attacked by Reno Scum and Hernandez.  Hernandez is looking for a apology.  Fallah admits he gave the money to Bravo.  They punch him and walk away.  Fallah then reaches into his trunks and pulls out the money.  He didn’t give it to Bravo.

Match 3.  XXXL VS The Rascalz

Wentz and Dez go to the air and take out both Larry D and Acey to start the match.  They try again on Acey, but he catches Wentz and gives him a Samoan Drop.  Larry D recovers and tags in.  He uses heavy stomps and forearms to the neck of Wentz until he tags Acey back in.  Wentz hits several kicks, but can’t make the tag.  Acey is just to big and fresh at this point.  Larry tags back in and gets a count of one off more clubbing blows to the back.  He then hits a short arm clothesline.  He gets a count of two this time.

Wentz continues to mount some offense.  Thus far it hasn’t been enough.  The Shining Wizard he connects with this time does the trick.  In comes Dez.  Dez hits several kicks and flips all over Larry.  Crazy fast speed.  Wentz comes in and hits a spring board kick.  Larry hits a clothesline for a count of two on Dez.  Acey is laying on the mat.  Larry D climbs the ropes to the top!  Wentz meets him there.  Dez joins.  They are going to try a suplez.  Acey makes the save and Larry hits a top rope splash for the win.
