Last week’s Impact was notable for one hell of a bombshell: a new championship title was coming. In the “old days”, a title like this would be something like the “World Television Championship”, of which I still have my own memories of. I think back to the WCW TV title and the classic best of …

#KWKorner: My review of #IMPACTonAXSTV for September 23, 2021 @ImpactWrestling (@thekantastic)
I haven’t seen Bound for Glory for some time, but I know it’s one of Impact Wrestling’s four main pay per views during the regular calendar year. Judging by the number of debuts or returns on this past week’s Impact Wrestling, BFG in Las Vegas is shaping up to be a can’t miss event. The …

#KWKorner: Could @Walking_Weapon be the next #ImpactWrestling World Champion? (@thekantastic)
Impact’s Victory Road pay per view featured some solid wrestling but no title changes for anyone, but it was the closing segment which now sets the stage for Bound for Glory coming Saturday, October 23 in Las Vegas. After Christian Cage successfully defended the Impact World Championship against Ace Austin, Josh Alexander, who earlier that …

#KWKorner: #IMPACTonAXSTV Review for August 5, 2021 (@thekantastic)
Emergence is the next pay per view for Impact Wrestling, but it’s clear that recent developments will reverberate beyond the confines of the Impact Zone. On August 14, New Japan’s Resurgence in Los Angeles will feature the Good Brothers taking on AEW’s Jon Moxley with a mystery partner, as well as Moose vs. former NEVER …

#KWKorner: Unvaccinated #wrestling fans are screwing it up for themselves (@thekantastic)
We may have said goodbye to the much vaunted WWE Thunderdome quite too soon. According to this report from ComicBook.com, with the spike in the COVID-19 Delta Variant across the United States there is concern that Summerslam, slated for August 21 at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium with more than 44,000 tickets already sold, may have …

#KWKorner: @VinceMcMahon’s ‘trolling’ of NXT talent opens opportunity at #SurvivorSeries 2021 (@thekantastic)
This is probably the most optimistic headline I could generate considering the absolute nonsense that occurred on last night’s first Monday Night RAW with a live audience back in Dallas, Texas, which combined with John Cena kicking off the show was the only reason I found to watch RAW this week. We saw a returning …

#KWKorner: Does the World “change again” at 2021 @ImpactWrestling #Slammiversary?(@thekantastic)
Billed as the event where “The World Changes…Again”, the 2021 Impact Slammiversary looks like it may live up to that moniker, as there are three matches where a mystery participant will be revealed, an unpredictable main event in the form of a No DQ match for the Impact World title, plus who the hell knows …

#KWKorner: My thoughts on 2021 #WWENXT Great American Bash #NXTGAB (@thekantastic)
The second installment of the Great American Bash under the NXT banner has come and gone, and it’s more clear to me now than ever that #NXTGAB is going to be more of a special on regular NXT TV rather than a Takeover style event, judging by how last night compared to the first GAB …

#KWKorner: Retiring from #wrestling does not have to be permanent (@thekantastic)
I just finished watching the final episode of the first half of Season 3 of ‘Dark Side of the Ring’ focusing on Tom Billington, otherwise known as the Dynamite Kid. Kid pioneered a wrestling style that became the foundation of the modern way many wrestlers work today, dating back to Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Owen …

#KWKorner: @thekantastic’s @ImpactWrestling Review on #IMPACTonAXSTV for June 3, 2021
A number of matches were booked as the card for Impact’s Against All Odds pay per view on June 12 took shape, but my goal for this week’s Impact Review is to highlight only a few good, bad and maybe in between segments…in my view. Shouldn’t Jake Something be in the X Division #1 contenders …

#KWKorner: @thekantastic’s @ImpactWrestling Review on #IMPACTonAXSTV for May 20, 2021
This week’s Impact Wrestling on AXS TV consisted of building of new feuds, another New Japan visitor coming to the Impact Zone, and culminated in a surprisingly title change at the end of the show. Let’s get into what happened on Impact this past week. BTI: Before the Impact On Before the Impact, we saw …

#KWKorner: Review of @ImpactWrestling #IMPACTonAXSTV for April 29; NO SHOW OMEGA?? (@thekantastic)
A new era has dawned on Impact Wrestling, as the promotion not only has to deal with their tag team championships being held by New Japan wrestlers, but the new Impact Champion Kenny Omega may be somewhat lenient in making sure he actually shows up on the show for which he is t he champion. …
