5. Tasha Steelz is a Star waiting to happen.
Since breaking away from Kierra Hogan, this is now the most critical time in Tasha Steelz’s career. This time is where she steps up and proves that she was the real star of Fire N’ Flava. With a muscle like Savannah Evans in her corner, she has the potential of being an unstoppable force. She may have lost against Rosemary, but she gave a great match and a taste of the potential she has a single star. If she keeps the momentum up in a year or two, the wrestling world will know her as Impact’s Knockouts Champion.
4. Purrazzo vs. James becomes the biggest Knocksmatch in history.
This Gia Miller sat down with Impact legend Mickie James to talk about her situation with Deonna Purrazzo after NWA 73. James says that this is no longer business, Purrazzo made it personal, and Hardcore Country Mickie James is back. Now it’s official that the wrestling world will experience the greatest of Impact’s Knockout division collide in what looks like Bound for Glory. This match will benefit both in proving why James still belongs and solidifying Purrazzo as the greatest Knockouts Champion with her impressive year plus as champion.
3. Chris Bey as a Bullet Club member, does not feel right.
Adding Chris Bey in the Bullet Club at first felt important and different, but without any active Bullet Club members consistently on Impact television, it does not feel right. He’s feuding with FinJuice just feels lackluster. Bey was shot into the X-Division championship last year, and now he seems to be floundering. This entire episode has set up a huge ten-man tag which Bey could have been right in the middle in a bigger spotlight. Bey does not need the Bullet Club, nor does Impact. He just needs a better storyline and a better spot in the card.
2. Did Steve Maclin need the help of No Way and his Conga Line?
Since debuting a few months ago, Steve Maclin has been unstoppable. And finally, he’s gotten a real storyline with Petey Williams. This match had a weird finish where No Way with his Conga Line and TJP ended up helping him win this match. Did he need their help? No, not all, but this was to set up a rivalry with TJP and Petey William. But after this big win, Maclin seems to have no direction; hopefully, this changes soon.
1. Big Ten Man Tag will show why Impact has a stacked roster.
AEW may have had a great weekend with the big names debuting lately, but Impact has been thriving with their talent. Through the ups and downs, Impact has done great with the main event talent they have. This entire episode was built off one big ten-man tag match that proved they have some of the best wrestlers in the world. If new fans or old fans want to know what Impact is all about, this ten-man would be a perfect example to watch.

Chris Bey in the Bullet Club is absolutely huge. He’s a regular over on NJPW & the Bullet Club’s International recognition & marketing is a huge responsibility for Bey to carry forward. Joining the Club wasn’t just some idea thrown out by Jimmy Jacobs, Scott D’Amore or anyone else from Impact’s production/creative team.
Drew Galloway, Cody Rhodes, The Young Bucks, The Good Brothers, Taiji Ishimori, Kenny Omega (I can go on) all were apart of the Club at some point & it escalated their reputation & admiration higher than just being at either NJPW, WWE, Impact, ROH had done.
