Elgin will face Trey, while, Austin will face Hernandez. These matches will take place on next week’s IMPACT.

Blanchard has been out while staying home during the Coronavirus pandemic. There’s no time table on her return to action.

The Tag Team Champions The North have also been announced for next week’s show. They’ll be defending their titles against Cody Deaner and a mystery partner.

The North have been stuck in Canada during the quarantine and have been wrestling local wrestlers. Now, they’ll face Deaner and a new partner.

Could we see a debut of some kind? IMPACT could certainly use a shot in the arm with some younger fresh talent.
