At Under Siege, the brawl that started on IMPACT! between Masha Slamovich and Killer Kelly continued all across the IMPACT Zone in London, Ontario. Kelly was choking the life out of Slamovich with a steel chain when security broke things up. In an attempt to settle their off-the-rails rivalry once and for all, Slamovich and Kelly will now meet in a Dog Collar match at Against All Odds. What will happen when these two Knockouts are chained together. One thing is for certain, it’s going to be an all-out war!
Recently on IMPACT!, Jason Hotch defeated IMPACT World Tag Team Champion Ace Austin in what was widely considered to be a huge upset. But the following week, the other half of the reigning IMPACT World Tag Team Champions, Chris Bey, evened the score when he triumphed over John Skyler. After retaining the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles against SUBCULTURE, ABC will now defend against The Good Hands at Against All Odds. With the veteran Brian Myers in their corner, are The Good Hands about to take their careers to the next level?
The fallout from an earth-shattering Under Siege begins. Don’t miss an all-new IMPACT! this Thursday at 8/7c on AXS TV and 8:30pm ET on YouTube for IMPACT Insiders.
After defeating PCO in a brutal No Disqualification match at Under Siege, Steve Maclin demanded that IMPACT President Scott D’Amore put the IMPACT World Title around his waist. D’Amore lived up to his promise but then, disaster struck. Bully Ray appeared for the first time since being defeated in Rebellion’s Hardcore War and joined forces with Maclin to deliver a heinous assault to D’Amore – which ended with him being powerbombed through a flaming table. This Thursday, Bully kicks off IMPACT! and there’s no telling what the “Baddest of the Bad” may have to say. His issues with D’Amore have reached levels of intensity never seen before and something has got to give.
Last Friday at Under Siege, Trinity made her triumphant IMPACT Plus debut when she defeated Gisele Shaw in a back-and-forth contest between two of IMPACT Wrestling’s top Knockouts. Trinity had to overcome the odds as she successfully thwarted numerous attacks at the hands of Shaw’s cronies, Jai Vidal and Savannah Evans. This Thursday, Evans is out for revenge when she goes one-on-one with Trinity. Can Trinity continue her winning ways against one of the division’s most daunting powerhouses?
Eddie Edwards and Yuya Uemura took each other and the rest of the field to the limit in the #1 Contenders free-for-all at Under Siege, which also involved Alex Shelley, Moose, Jonathan Gresham and Frankie Kazarian. But when the dust had settled, it was Alex Shelley who stood tall and earned a coveted opportunity at the IMPACT World Title. This Thursday, Edwards and Uemura look to bounce back when they face off in singles action. Who has what it takes to score the all-important W?
Jake Crist made his long-awaited return at Under Siege when he united with Sami Callihan and Rich Swann to defeat The Design in a six-man tag team grudge match. This Thursday, Crist will once again join forces with his former oVe stablemate as he and Callihan take on Black Taurus and Crazzy Steve of Decay. But with the ever looming threat of The Design lurking around every corner, can Callihan and Crist continue their wave of momentum?
Alongside her allies in SUBCULTURE, Dani Luna arrived in IMPACT Wrestling at Under Siege. While Mark Andrews and Flash Morgan Webster ultimately came up short in their quest to dethrone ABC as IMPACT World Tag Team Champions, their future certainly looking bright in the tag team division. This Thursday, we will see Luna make her in-ring debut as she faces off against the physical Jody Threat. Threat has been unstoppable since her arrival and remains undefeated. Will Luna be the one to bring an end to her dominance? Or will Threat prove once again why she’s a force to be reckoned with?
The action begins Before the IMPACT, streaming this Thursday at 7:15pm ET exclusively on YouTube, IMPACT Plus (live player) and Facebook. After upsetting Jason Hotch on Countdown to Under Siege, London’s own Tyler Tirva must now face the veteran Brian Myers in a match you won’t see anywhere else! Plus, Gia Miller, Josh Mathews and George Iceman get you ready for all things IMPACT.

At Under Siege, Alex Shelley triumphed over Moose, Eddie Edwards, Jonathan Gresham, Yuya Uemura and Frankie Kazarian to become #1 Contender for the IMPACT World Title. Later in the night, Steve Maclin remained IMPACT World Champion when he defeated PCO in a violent No Disqualification match. Just two weeks later at Against All Odds, Maclin must now defend the IMPACT World Title once again, this time against one of the most accomplished stars in IMPACT Wrestling history, Alex Shelley. The Motor City Machine Gun will be looking to capture the IMPACT World Title for the very first time in his career. Will Shelley realize his dream in Columbus? Or will Maclin’s mayhem keep him at the top of the mountain?
IMPACT Wrestling will make history at Against All Odds when an innovative new match type determines the #1 Contender for the IMPACT World Title at Slammiversary. It’s called an 8-4-1 match and the rules are as follows: the match begins as an 8-man tag. The winning team then competes against one another in a 4-way match with the winner of that advancing to the main event of Slammiversary. On one side, Bully Ray, Jonathan Gresham, Heath and Nick Aldis will unite. Standing across the ring from them will be Moose, Mike Bailey, Rich Swann and PCO. Not only is this one of the most star-studded matchups in recent memory, but enemies will be forced to work together if they want a shot at IMPACT Wrestling’s most coveted prize.
Trey Miguel escaped Under Siege with his X-Division Title intact when he blinded Chris Sabin with spray-paint to steal the victory. Miguel may have thought that this his problems with the X-Division pioneer were behind him – but he was wrong. Due to his controversial actions, Miguel will be forced to defend his title against Sabin once again, this time in a huge rematch at Against All Odds. Will lightning strike in Columbus? Or will a new X-Division Champion be crowned?
Stay tuned for more Against All Odds news and match announcements.
