Melina Makes In-Ring Debut
Melina first appeared in IMPACT earlier this month on IMPACT on AXS TV. She was revealed by Mickie James to be the opponent for Deonna Purrazzo at the NWA EmPowerrr event. Purrazzo was in the ring with Matthew Rehwoldt, reminding everyone of her long list of accomplishments. Mickie James intervened to encourage Purrazzo to sign the contract to defend her Knockouts Title at EmPowerrr. Purrazzo refused to sign until her opponent was revealed. When Melina made her way to the ring, the contract was signed and the match made official. Now Melina will make her in-ring debut for IMPACT and is looking to gain momentum before she meets Purrazzo on August 28th.
Christian Cage Returns to the IMPACT Zone
Christian Cage shocked Kenny Omega when we pinned “The Best Bout Machine” for IMPACT World Title on the first-ever episode of AEW Rampage. He now returns to the IMPACT Zone for the first time since 2012. He will defend the title for the first time this Friday at Emergence against Brian Myers. Will the two get an early start to their match for this Friday? What will “Captain Charisma” have in store for the fans and the wrestlers of IMPACT Wrestling? Find out when Christian Cage returns to the IMPACT Zone.
