Okay, just let me rant and I know people will have something to say about or give me shit about it, but I don't fucking care. I honestly want to know why they picked Jordynne over Masha when she has been built up so well and it was the right time. The only thing I think of and go ahead say this is a "scapegoat" and all, but I feel like given all the shit Putin is doing they just didn't want Masha to have the belt because what would be the other reason. And yeah the match was great, i wont deny not that, but Masha losing just felt wrong, is wrong, and pretty much killed my love for IMPACT. I have emotions tied to Masha because she is a proud Russian, and she was getting cheered and people where behind her and everything and it made me feel great especially after the shit I deal with on a daily bases, and she has worked so hard to get where is and her winning tonight would have felt like it was worth it.

And I know people will "Dont get so emotional to wrestling, man" or some other borderline dumb shit, because wrestling is the only thing i have in my life right now that made me happy and now just doesnt because of either dumbass booking or just things that feel like a "Lol, fuck you", but whatever maybe I am a emotional bitch that just needs to learn "how to go with the flow" and "quiet being cynical" and "accept things as is". So yeah, my post for impact is a rant and Sky I legit enjoyed the LDs with you and I am sorry I wont be there anymore.

Hate to say this but.... you're really getting overly emotional about booking decisions you don't agree with. You quit AEW I seem to remember after Jericho won the ROH title, and while I get there's some national attachment behind this, you seem to have completely turned on the product when you were enjoying the rest of the show. It seems you're jumping into dropping companies out of nowhere for no good reason. If you're struggling to find joy when a company makes one "wrong" booking decision, maybe wrestling just isn't for you?

If it's any consolation Deth, Masha not winning was far from the only questionable outcome on this show. :lol So I guess the takeaway is don't take it personally, it's just Impact TNAing

Masha lost because shes still a kid being built up. Scott damore mentioned that they used a lot of old school tactics to build up this feud. If we use that logic, its sensible the powerhouse face would be victorious over the ultra violent heel. There were two stories told and one is Grace becoming the ace by beating the one that could not be beat. Masha was made last night in w loss, ill stand by that. Also, undefeated gimmick are booking blachholes , you dont want that and Masha losing to the Ace n no one else, at her age, is a good thing long term. This wont be their only match, masha will be back n she likely beats grace on the 2nd or 3rd shot. I will preach paience, masha was booked like a goddess n is clearly the future. Grace is just the present.

I wanted masha to win too fwiw, but i think the booking is fine n grace is an amazing champ n not like an overpushed crappy worker either

Finally, got around to watching this show, sorry for missing the LD, and I enjoyed the show very much. Dirty Dango and Brain Myers was fun for what it was and nice to Dango around. Hoping for a match between him and Swinger because it would be too much fun. X-Division was fun, but Kaz winning it is bit weird now especially after reading the spoilers, but maybe hopefully Laredo Kid or even Black Taraus gets the belt, lol. That is the dream anyways. Mickie and Mia were so good, a few mistakes, but nothing they recovered from just fine. Knockouts Tag Titles was a fun match, but Taya winning in general is always great for me, lol. Jessicka's new finisher just looks brutal, which is a plus. IMAPCT Tag Title caught me by surprise as I was sure MCMG were winning it, but it was a really good match minus the wacky ending. Bully Ray just had me rolling winning the Call Your Shot, and I don't know why. Maybe just because it seems like the most IMPACT thing to do, but I loved it. The Knockouts championship match was very good. So many edge of your seat moments in the match that kept you guessing, and Jordynne winning made the most sense. As Red Dragon mentioned, undefeatable wrestler is a blackhole and maybe this is how Masha becomes a face. Either way, it was good, and I enjoyed it. The main event as Sky mentioned above was an emotional roller coaster ride, and it was one worth riding. I fully though Eddie was winning here, but Josh retaining was great. Really either outcome was bad for me.

So overall solid PPV for IMPACT and bring back my gimmick I had of rating shows I watched on WWEF. I would give this 7/10.

Well deserved. It's one of the best events I've seen them do. Josh/Eddie I could easily see being a MOTY contender as well. It had everything you want from a match with the drama, storytelling and action. Just an incredibly fun show from top to bottom.
