Two new matches announced for Impact Philadelphia TV tapings

Two new matches have been announced for this weekend’s double-dip of Impact TV tapings in Philadelphia, including a street fight for the Knockouts title.

Knockouts Champion Tasha Steelz will defend her belt against former champion Mickie James in a street fight, continuing their recent feud. Steelz defeated James for the title at this month’s Sacrifice.

The other new match will see the Motor City Machine Guns take on Bullet Club’s Jay White and Chris Bey in a rematch of a bout that will air on this Thursday’s Impact.

Impact is running shows this Friday and Saturday at the 2300 Arena and according to advertising, these matches are set for Friday.

They join the previously announced Tag Team title lumberjack match between champions Violent by Design and former champions The Good Brothers. The day wasn’t specified for that match.

The tapings will continue the company’s road to April’s Rebellion pay-per-view, headlined by World Champion Moose vs. former champion Josh Alexander.
