Impact announces new title match for Rebellion, two promos for Thursday
The Impact X-Division title will be on the line at next month’s Rebellion pay-per-view in a three-way.
Champion Trey Miguel will defend against two contenders to be determined through a pair of three-way qualifying matches. The six wrestlers involved in those matches have yet to be announced.
Miguel will be looking for the sixth defense of the gold he’s held since last October. He successfully defended the title against the departing Jake Something at last Saturday’s Sacrifice.
Rebellion will take place in Poughkeepsie, New York, on Saturday, April 23rd.
