For the first time since this past January, former AAA Mega Champion El Hijo del Vikingo will be in action on this Thursday’s edition of TNA Impact.
Vikingo fell in defeat to X-Division Champion “Speedball” Mike Bailey at Saturday’s Bound for Glory pay-per-view. This will be his first TNA TV match since a six-way in January, but his opponent has yet to be named.
In what promises to be a hard-hitting tag team match, Hammerstone & Jake Something will battle former TNA World Champion Sami Callihan & PCO. Hammerstone, Something and Callihan were all involved in the Call Your Shot gauntlet match Saturday while PCO defended his Digital Media and International titles against Matt Cardona in a Monster’s Ball match.
In another tag team match, First Class’ AJ Francis & KC Navarro will take on former TNA Tag Team Champions The Rascalz (Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz). All four men were part of the gauntlet match as well.
Here’s the current lineup being taped Sunday in Detroit:
- El Hijo Del Vikingo in action
- First Class (AJ Francis & KC Navarro) vs. The Rascalz (Trey Miguel & Zachary Wentz)
- Hammerstone & Jake Something vs. Sami Callihan & PCO
