IMPACT which made headlines in 2019 for becoming the first major promotion with a television deal to crown a woman as the main champion. Tessa Blanchard defeated Sami Callihan and held the title until unceremoniously leaving the company during the COVID pandemic.

The company is back at it again announcing Jordynne Grace will be one of the six competitors to challenge Raju. Also appearing in the match will be Willie Mack, TJP, Trey Miguel, and Chris Bey.

Fans thought Grace would be heading into the event as the champion after she successfully answered Raju’s open challenge on tonight’s show. However, Raju revealed the open challenge was a non-title match.

As a result of her victory, Grace will get her shot in the 6 way match. Grace recently lost the Knockouts Title to Purrazzo. Could we see another title thought to be a men’s championship soon be around a woman’s waist?

Only time will tell. Also previously announced for the show is a 4-way bout for the Tag Team Championships, where it will be the Motor City Machine Guns vs. Ace Austin & Madman Fulton vs. Good Brothers vs. The North.

Speaking of The Good Brothers, they have a much more important tag team championship bout coming up next Wednesday. Check out the announcement here.
