During a tag team match on the 5/27 edition of IMPACT Wrestling on AXS, TJP pinned current X Division Champion Josh Alexander. The two exchanged a few words in a backstage segment after the match and it led to Scott D’Amore coming into frame and announcing that on IMPACT’s B.T.I. show which starts at 7 PM EST, Alexander and TJP are going to meet in a 60-minute Iron Man match for the X Division Title.
IMPACT’s program from 8-10 PM EST will feature a Tables match between Jake Something and Rohit Raju.
Former IWGP Heavyweight Champion Satoshi Kojima is going to make his IMPACT in-ring debut on 6/3. He’ll be taking on Cody Deaner of Violent By Design. Kojima confronted Violent By Design and challenged fellow former AJPW Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion Joe Doering. Kojima wants the match at Against All Odds on June 12th and Doering accepted. IMPACT has not confirmed the bout.
