A Night of Triumphs, Upsets, and Unforgettable Moments at Impact Wrestling’s Taped Event in Atlanta, GA
Impact Wrestling recently taped an upcoming episode from Center Stage in Atlanta, GA, and it was a night filled with high-octane action, unexpected twists, and emotional moments. The show kicked off with Dirty Dango delivering a passionate promo, setting the tone for the evening. This led to a match between Dango and Crazy Steve, which ended in Dango’s victory.
In a stunning upset, Masha Slamovich triumphed over Kilynn King, one half of the Knockouts Tag Team Champions. The victory came with the help of Courtney Rush, who interfered by choking Taylor Wilde with a chain, distracting her from the match.
Kenny King emerged triumphant in his match against Yuya Uemura, securing the win with his signature move, the Royal Flush. However, the celebration was short-lived as Joe Hendry interrupted the proceedings, presenting Kenny with a comical music video mocking his previous career as a Chippendale male dancer.
Nick Aldis took center stage to deliver a fiery promo addressing his recent attack on Impact Wrestling Champion Alex Shelley. Aldis called out Shelley, inviting him to join the crowd of Impact fans. Shelley accepted the invitation and confronted Aldis. The confrontation escalated into a brawl until Chris Sabin intervened to rescue Shelley.
In a brutal street fight, Steve Maclin emerged victorious over PCO, showcasing his tenacity and aggression. Following the match, Maclin took the opportunity to address the crowd, declaring himself the “King of Extreme.” However, his moment was interrupted by the unexpected arrival of Tommy Dreamer.
Dreamer swiftly took action, unleashing a series of dusty punches and a bionic elbow on Maclin. Adding to the chaos, PCO unleashed a powerful chokeslam on Maclin, asserting his dominance.
Dreamer then took center stage, addressing the audience and sharing some personal news. He revealed that his last match in Center Stage took place on January 7, 2000, and that he had recently lost his mother and been diagnosed with skin cancer. Despite these challenges, Dreamer expressed his unwavering commitment to the Impact locker room, praising his fellow wrestlers as the reason he continues to return.
