Powell’s POV: The theme of the show is that Impact is working with Wrestle Pro, MLW, AAA, Lucha Underground, and Dragon Gate for this event. The show will begin at 10CT/11ET on the Thursday night before WrestleMania and is listed as a 2.5 hour show. The event will be available for purchase via FITE TV for $19.99. If all goes according to plan, I will be covering this show live as it streams here at Dot Net.
Check below for the new Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast with Jason Powell and guest Eric Bischoff discussing whether there are similarities in Vince McMahon’s WWE booking and Verne Gagne’s booking of the AWA during its dying days, a network shakeup that could potentially be an issue for All Elite Wrestling, Eric’s WrestleMania week show with Tony Schiavone in New York New York, and much more.
It’s almost as if the writer hasn’t bothered doing their job, cause if they had they’d know Johnny IMPACT is no longer in the Team IMPACT Vs Team Lucha Underground and will instead be in the Ultimate-X match
The writer has a lot of companies to keep up on and simply looked at the lineup listed on the Impact website. But the writer will provide an updated lineup again before the show.
that looks excellent with the exception of the joey ryan match could that not be removed and replaced with an LAX vs RASCALZ match? i will buy it lets support the wrestlers you just know this will be better than most of the smaller shows during the weekend as the impact crowd always bring it in the one off shows where it just about the wrestling. Think wrestlers on some shows dont feel they have as much to prove.
