Knockouts Title on the line
Mickie James shocked the world when she defeated Deonna Purrazzo at Bound for Glory to become the new Knockouts Champion. She quickly defended the title against fellow Knockouts veteran Madison Rayne. Now she looks to her next challenger. Mercedes Martinez won the Knockouts Knockdown Tournament last month. This promised her a shot at the Knockouts Title. She is now the number one contender to take on Mickie James at Turning Point 2021.
The feud started with mutual respect between the two competitors. This went out the door after Martinez defeated Madison Rayne on IMPACT. Rayne attacked Martinez after the match. James came out to help Martinez before the damage became too severe. Martinez returned the favor by dropping James after being helped to her feet. The rivalry is now more personal than ever. Will James retain? Or will Martinez make James’s latest reign a short one? Find out this Saturday night at Turning Point.
Turning Point 2021 Main Event: Moose vs. Eddie Edwards
Moose and Eddie Edwards will reignite their feud in IMPACT Wrestling. The two former best friends will meet at Turning Point 2021 with the IMPACT Title on the line. Moose shocked Josh Alexander at Bound for Glory when he cashed in the Call Your Shot Gauntlet trophy and won the IMPACT title. Eddie Edwards earned his shot at the title by winning a triple threat match on IMPACT. He defeated W.Morrissey and Matt Cardona to solidify his shot at Moose. A brawl broke out between the two on the latest episode of IMPACT. The two grabbed tables, ladders, and other weapons during the brawl. As a result, Scott D’amore made this match a Full Metal Mayhem Match. The former friends turned enemies will add another chapter to their extremely personal feud this Saturday night at Turning Point. Only one will walk out as the IMPACT World Champion.
