Following Saturday's No Surrender, Impact Wrestling stuck around New Orleans, Louisiana, on Sunday for a TV taping for future episodes of Impact on AXS.

Results are courtesy of PWInsider:

• Giselle Shaw defeated a local talent.
• Ace Austin and Mike Bailey defeated Jake Something and X-Division Champion Trey Miguel
• Impact Wrestling Champion Moose did an in-ring promo which eventually brought out Heath who demanded a title shot. After some back-and-forth, Heath got the better of Moose physically and stood tall with the belt.
• Brian Myers defeated Crazzy Steve (w/ Decay)
• Digital Media Champion Matt Cardona defeated Jordynne Grace in a no DQ match
• Masha Slamovich defeated Rachel Rose
• Bhupinder Gujjar defeated John Skyler. After the match, W. Morrissey attacked Myers who came out to watch at his own table. Skyler prevented Myers from going through the table but Morrissey then put him through it instead.
• ROH Women's Champion/AAA Reina de Reinas Champion Deonna Purrazzo defeated Lady Frost in an optn challenge. Giselle Shaw came out afterward and confronted Frost.
• JONAH defeated Zicky Dice
• Honor No More (Matt Taven, Mike Bennett and Kenny King) defeated Rich Swann, Willie Mack and Chris Sabin. Eddie Edwards did a promo explaining why he turned on Team Impact Saturday. His wife, Alisha, came out and didn't understand why he turned his back on their family. He said Honor No More is his family now and he said it's up to her if she is still his family.
• Cassie Lee defeated Madison Rayne
• Tasha Steelz defeated Chelsea Green. Knockouts Champion Mickie James was on commentary.
• JONAH defeated Johnny Swinger. PCO came out and after JONAH laid him out, he sat up and JONAH left.
• Steve Maclin defeated Eddie Edwards by DQ
• Heath defeated Vincent. Both Team Impact and Honor No More brawled. Moose came out and got laid out again by Heath for a visual pin.
• Bullet Club (Impact Tag Team Champions The Good Brothers, Chris Bey and Jay White) defeated Guerrillas of Destiny and Violent by Design (Doering and Deaner) in a no DQ match. Tanga Loa did a post-match promo and said he is coming after White.

So I guess Heath is the challenger for Sacrifice

Good for him but....yeah they're gonna have to outsource for an actual PPV challenger once Rebellion comes around at this rate. Unless Jonah, I could def fucks with that

Anyone else think Big Cass looks like Edge in the graphic?

I think Edge has grown to look more like Big Cass with age but yes lol

Jesus Health vs Moose. Health is a nice guy and and all but that Matchup doesn't make me want to see a Show if that is the Main Event for me. Babyface GOD teaming up with VBD I can dig that.

Assuming Heath is penciled in for Sacrifice I'm once again asking who the fuck Moose defends against at Rebellion Jonah I'd the only realistic choice I think I'd like, and they should def go with that but I don't see any hints towards that being the direction here. I guess a lot could be added in post tho tbf and then more build filmed at the next tapings

that would be 2 out of 4 defences vs heels yes?

Yeah if you count Morrisey, but I wouldn't. He's even continuing to feud with Myers here so i guess the face turn is sticking. Which is kinda shocking in it's own right bc I never woulda thunk it lmao

Jonah has that short term contract through Rebellion too I believe, if he isn't staying and they don't book this match first I'll never forgive em. Unless njpw wants it I guess since it was teased there first but I always thought that was a tease for Impact

 

[Chris]

I assume the Maclin face turn is sticking now too with this Eddie stuff and bruh how the fuck they manged that one too

 

[Alexa]

Either way, lol. It is uncanny

 

[Kairi HoHo]

I assume the Maclin face turn is sticking now too with this Eddie stuff and bruh how the fuck they manged that one too

I'm the only one who is not feeling Maclin? I think he's talented but I rather see him Heel than a Face for me. He's with Deonna he already has me wanting me to throw it down

 

[Chris]

Maclin is the man. He's probs better as a heel for sure but the way they've went about this face turn has been great

 

[Comrade Khan]

I'm in the minority but I would have been fine with Maclin winning the X. Not a huge fan of trey as much as the other high flyers they have

Heath being the Number One Contender
Grace having to put over Cardona
