This Saturday is the first pay-per-view event for IMPACT Wrestling.
Hard to Kill had three women’s matches on the card and now we are down to two. The Knockouts World Tag Team Championship match has been pulled from the show based on The IInspiration being exposed to COVID-19. The champs were set to defend against The Influence.
Per IMPACT:
Jessica McKay & Cassie Lee to self-isolate after exposure to COVID
(January 7, 2022) – The IInspiration, Jessica McKay and Cassie Lee, will not be defending their Knockouts World Tag-Team Championship at IMPACT Wrestling’s HARD TO KILL Pay-Per-View event tomorrow night.
The champions informed IMPACT Wrestling that they have been in close contact with an individual who shortly thereafter tested positive for COVID-19. Out of an abundance of caution and with the health of their peers in mind, Jessica and Cassie will self-isolate over the weekend.
IMPACT Executive Vice-President Scott D’Amore said: “IMPACT’s COVID protocols are in place to keep our talent roster, staff and fans safe. I am sure the fans will share The IInspiration’s and my disappointment that they won’t be in action at tomorrow’s stacked HARD TO KILL event, but we look forward to their return soon.”
Both Cassie Lee and Jessie McKay share messages on social media in response.
The Knockout Matches on the card for Hard to Kill on Saturday, Jan. 8 are as follows –
Knockouts World Title Texas Death Match
Mickie James (C) vs Deonna Purrazzo
First Ever Knockouts Ultimate-X Match
