Six Man Scramble Friday on IMPACT
Six athletes will compete on IMPACT this coming Friday night in Windsor, Ontario, Canada for the chance to move up the ladder and get noticed. While Petey Williams is a former X-Division Champion, Petey has taken some time off and returns to action against five hungry athletes.
Jake Crist is dangerous and can strike at any time with his precision kicks.
Trey is a wildcard for sure, but this Rascal has all the skills it takes to win and thrive!
Ace Austin is the newest member of the roster and has a lot to prove, but his is 2-0 in his career and ready to make it 3-0 against five other athletes.
Then you have Idris Abraham and Aiden Prince, two men who know Windsor and BCW very well, but stepping on to the grand stage of IMPACT Wrestling is another beast all together.
All six men have something to prove on Friday night and all need this win for various reasons. So the question now becomes who will get it done? Who will secure the win? In a Six Man Scramble, it is one fall to a finish with traditional rules stretched, the legal men are in the ring, but a tag isn’t needed to become legal. If someone goes outside the ring, another competitor can enter the ring and they are now legal. It will be fast and furious on Friday night in Windsor!
