Six-way no. 1 contender’s match set for Impact Under Siege

The next no. 1 contender for the Impact World title will be determined at this month’s Under Siege.

Announced Thursday, Eddie Edwards, Moose, Jonathan Gresham, Yuya Uemura, Frankie Kazarian and Alex Shelley will compete in a six-way for the future opportunity against either current champion Steve Maclin or his next title challenger PCO.

The streaming special is set for Friday, May 26th in London, Ontario, Canada.

Edwards and Moose are former Impact World titleholders while Kazarian and Shelley have held other Impact titles but never the big prize. Gresham and Uemura are still in search of their first taste of Impact gold.

The new match joins three title defenses previously announced for the show.

Here’s the current card:

  • Impact World Champion Steve Maclin defends against PCO
  • Knockouts Champion Deonna Purrazzo defends against Jordynne Grace
  • X-Division Champion Trey Miguel defends against Chris Sabin
  • No. 1 contender’s six-way: Eddie Edwards vs. Moose vs. Jonathan Gresham vs. Yuya Uemura vs. Frankie Kazarian vs. Alex Shelley
