Before Cage’s Rampage victory, Kenny Omega’s last successful defence of the IMPACT World Championship was over Callihan at Slammiversary last month.

At Triplemania XXIX on August 14, Omega pinned Andrade El Idolo to retain his AAA Mega Championship. According to a new report, a different finish was originally planned for the title match.

WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair accompanied Andrade to the ring at Triplemania, before getting physical in the AAA ring.
