This Is IMPACT! Results (10/22): Ace Austin Gets X Rated, Madison Rayne vs. Shotzi Blackheart, Rascalz vs. Team AAA
Josh Mathews and Scott D’Amore are the announce team for this one, and they break down some Bound For Glory highlights and recent roster additions before revealing Ace Austin is making a new movie, and we’ll go on set. A Ken Shamrock promo plays after this.
Madison Rayne defeated Shotzi Blackheart
Madison wins with a Rayne Drop via pinfall
Mathews and D’Amore get into a discussion about the Knockouts Division, with Scott pointing out the Knockouts have always been revered in TNA/IMPACT, but not taken seriously in other companies until now. Following this, they play highlights of Taya Valkyrie’s title run.
We go to Don Callis and Ace Austin discussing his new adult film and winning the X Division Championship at Bound For Glory. There’s a gag where Ace is needed back on set and one of the girls in the movie recognizes Don Callis.
Mathews and D’Amore recap The North’s title reign, and how they retained the belts at Bound For Glory last weekend. We also see RVD turning on Rhino and Moose cheating to beat Ken Shamrock, who says he’ll address his future on next week’s show.
Taya Valkyrie is interviewed by Melissa Santos and talks about beating Tenille Dashwood after a distraction. Taya recaps her history with Tenille, then we see a ‘guy on the street‘ video with John E Bravo and Taya runs away to look for him.
Don't worry, @JohnEBravo1st is used to getting rejected…

Josh Alexander versus Naomichi Marufuji is announced for next week’s show. Brian Cage is then interviewed on set, and he says he’s ready to move on, but Sami Callihan interrupts and demands a rematch. Sami talks about threatening Cage’s family and continues to rant about how far he’ll go, then Cage finally agrees to the match. We then get word that it’ll be a steel cage match for the title.
We go back to Ace Austin’s new film and see the director giving tips to Ace and an actress, and we now see them starting to make out on the bed, revealing that the film is a porno. (Yup.)
More highlights with Eddie Edwards’ IMPACT career, followed by a recap of Rich Swann’s X title win at Homecoming earlier this year. Jimmy Jacobs interviews Johnny Swinger, who says he invented the swinging neckbreaker. There’s some funny business as Swinger appears to be out of touch with technology, and talks about his fan club before calling himself ‘Johnny Impact’, not realizing they already had one.
.@JimmyJacobsX not impressed by the swing man Johnny Swinger!
