This week’s IMPACT kicked off with tag team action as new Knockouts World Champion Trinity teamed with Dani Luna to take on former tag champs The Coven.
Trinity and KiLynn King started the bout as a callback to Trinity’s debut. Luna eventually came in and showcased her powerhouse moves against both King and Wilde.
But it wasn’t long before The Coven outnumbered Luna and kept her grounded for a bit. Trinity finally got the hot tag and hit Wilde with a Samoan Drop and crossbody from the top. Luna tackled King out of the ring, which allowed Trinity to hit the full-nelson bomb into a pinfall on Wilde for the win.
Afterward, Deonna Purrazzo came down and simply stated that she wants her Knockouts World Championship rematch at Emergence in Toronto on August 27.
Later, Gisele Shaw went one-on-one with Masha Slamovich following their backstage interaction last week. Slamovich initially targeted Shaw’s left arm and tried to keep her grounded, but Shaw eventually took control by shoving the champ out of the ring.
After the break, Shaw took control with flying uppercuts followed by Shock and Awe. When Masha starting making a comeback, Jai Vidal distracted from the apron. Killer Kelly pulled him down, but then Savannah Evans clobbered her. Shaw took advantage and hit Masha with a big knee strike for the win.
Elsewhere, Traci Brooks told Frankie Kazarian that she wants five minutes in the ring alone with Alisha Edwards. Kazarian seemingly talked her out of it for now.
No matches have been announced for next week yet. IMPACT will hold television tapings in Chicago on Friday and Saturday night.
