Longtime friends and tag team partners, Heath and Rhino, are on top of the world after defeating The Kingdom to become the new IMPACT World Tag Team Champions. Before winning the titles, Heath and Rhino promised the Motor City Machine Guns that they would be their first challengers but when the reunited Major Players got involved, the situation became a little more complicated. While Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley were on their way to the management office, they were confronted by Matt Cardona and Digital Media Champion Brian Myers, leading to a singles match between Cardona and Shelley. In a controversial conclusion, Cardona picked up the victory, boosting him and Myers to the front of the line. Now it’s the Major Players who are set to challenge Heath and Rhino for the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles at Over Drive and it’s anyone’s game when these two accomplished duos clash in Louisville!

IMPACT Wrestling kicks it into Over Drive LIVE November 18th on IMPACT PlusYouTube for IMPACT Ultimate Insiders and FITE from Old Forester’s Paristown Hall in Louisville, KY! Tickets are on-sale now at Ticketmaster.com.

Miller asks Edwards where he stands with his wife Alisha but Edwards wants to keep that private.
