(Los Angeles – Oct. 24, 2019) –  IMPACT Wrestling’s global hit flagship series IMPACT! makes its debut on its new broadcast home, AXS TV, taking over the Tuesday primetime lineup with an action-packed night of high-stakes matches—premiering October 29 at 8 p.m. ET/PT. The series premieres in the aftermath of IMPACT’s biggest event of the year, Bound For Glory 2019 (BFG), kicking off the new era with a Steel Cage Match for the IMPACT World Championship as Brian Cage defends against ruthless rival Sami Callihan in a rematch of their high-octane BFG headlining bout.

In more fallout from Bound For Glory, the star-studded episode includes UFC Hall of Famer Ken Shamrock addressing his future and wrestling legend Rob Van Dam explains his heinous actions at BFG after turning on his tag team partner Rhino. Plus, after successfully defending her title, Knockouts Champion Taya Valkyrie continues her record-breaking reign, leading Kiera Hogan and Madison Rayne in a 6-person tag-team match against Rosemary, Jordynne Grace and Alexia Nicole. Newly crowned X-Division Champion Ace Austin faces off with BFG Gauntlet winner and familiar foe Eddie Edwards  in a non-title street fight, while Josh Alexander–one half of the World Tag Team Champions The North—kicks off the AXS TV era as he takes on Japanese strong style legend Naomichi Marufuji.

“We are incredibly excited to make our debut on AXS TV, especially after our action-packed and highly competitive PPV event Bound for Glory last weekend. Our stable of athletes continue to put their heart and bodies on the line, week after week, performing unforgettable athletic feats and I can hardly wait to showcase their work on the new AXS TV IMPACT! weekly series,” said Scott D’Amore, EVP of IMPACT Wrestling.
