Impact Report 7/29/21

JMatt Stryker and D’Lo Brown are on the call from the Impact Zone.  Fans are in attendance once again.

The show begins with a highlight package from last week.  Jay White addressed everyone last week and made an ally with Chris Bey.  Is Bey the newest member of the Bullet Club?  We may get some answers tonight, as Bey and White are involved in a match against the Tag Team Champions, The Good Brothers.

Gia Miller is camped out in front of Scott D’Amore‘s office tonight.  She approaches him and asks what is his big news this evening?  Scott says there is always big news at Impact.  Gia says there is more.  Just then Tommy Dreamer walks up and says we need a #1 for Kenny Omega.  Scott shrugs him off and tells him he should figure it out.  D’Amore then walks off.

Match 1.  Impact World Tag Team Champions, The Good Brothers VS Chris Bey and Jay White

What a match to start the show.  Karl Anderson and Jay White start off for their teams.  The two jockey for position.  White gains the advantage and lays in some vicious chops and a back elbow off the rope.  He tags in Bey but Anderson fights back momentarily.  Then Bey picks the pace up after bouncing the ropes and takes Anderson off his feet.  Doc Gallows tags in the lays in the heavy punches in the corner to Bey.  Then he hits a big stall suplex on Bey.  Gallows pushes Bey into their corner and he and Anderson go to work.  They ground and pound on Bey.  Anderson gets a pin attempt.  The Machine Gun hits a shotgun elbow after whipping Bey off the ropes.

Gallows tags in and slams Bey and gets another two count.  He then drops several elbows to the back of the head of Bey.  Bey gets to his feet and kicks Gallows.  He then goes to the top and splashes Gallows.  This gives both teams a chance to make a tag.

Anderson takes a beating from White, but not long.  Bey tags back in and hits a reverse F5 on Anderson.  Gallows enters and takes several kicks from Bey, but hits a chokeslam.  Anderson takes out White on the outside and re-enters to hit the Magic Killer for the pin.

Winners and still Impact World Tag Team Champions, The Good Brothers.

This will be a intergender match.  Nothing new for Impact.  Kaleb walks up and hip tosses Wilde a few times.  Taylor fights back with a few kicks and a monkey flip.  Kaleb connects with a clothesline.  The fans start booing this move.  He locks on a rear chin lock on Wilde.  Taylor tries to elbow her way out, but Kaleb pounds on the back of her head.  Kaleb tries to jump on Taylor from behind, but crotches himself on the ropes.  Taylor hits a standing ranna.  Kaleb recovers and punches Taylor on the chin.  Kaleb then gets a bag from Dashwood, but misses hitting Taylor.  They spill to the outside and Taylor hits another ranna.  Dashwood starts arguing, giving Kaleb time to escape.  They go inside and Wild hits a reverse ranna and suplex combo for the pin.

Winner.  Taylor Wilde.

Just then Frankie Kazarian jumps The Elite from behind with a bat.  The fans scream, “Welcome Back” to Frankie.

Backstage Tommy Dreamer invites Frankie to be Sami’s partner next week in the 6 man match.  Sami then tells Dreamer to be the 3rd man.  Tommy refuses and whispers to Frankie’s and Sami’s ear.  He has an idea who the partner should be.  Sami looks shocked and says it will never happen.
