In a dramatic twist of events after Thursday’s electrifying Impact on AXS TV, Knockouts Champion Mickie James has been ruled out of Friday’s Sacrifice showdown due to an unforeseen injury. The promotion took to Twitter to break the news, promising fans an update and further details during the streaming special hailing from the bustling city of London, Ontario, Canada.
The fearless James was scheduled to clash with the formidable former champion, Jordynne Grace, in a much-anticipated rematch following their epic battle at January’s Hard to Kill.
The gritty Thursday night saw James join forces with the relentless Tommy Dreamer, taking on the fierce duo of Bully Ray and Masha Slamovich. In a stunning turn of events, James found herself on the receiving end of a wayward Grace spear post-match. Speculation is rife over whether this incident will be woven into the storyline to explain James’ unexpected injury. Stay tuned for more updates from the thrilling world of wrestling!
