Impact’s Sacrifice main event could set up angle for Rebellion PPV
Note: The following contains spoilers for future Impact Wrestling events.
According to Dave Meltzer in this week’s Wrestling Observer Newsletter, the not yet announced main event for Impact Wrestling’s Sacrifice could play into the AEW/Impact angle for April’s Rebellion pay-per-view.
Meltzer reported that Impact World Champion Rich Swann vs. Moose will headline Sacrifice which was taped during the early-February set of tapings. Both Swann’s title and the TNA title Moose has been claiming is his were on the line with Swann picking up the win and both belts.
Meltzer speculated that would set up Swann vs. AEW World Champion Kenny Omega for the April Rebellion PPV, playing into the angle that Omega is a belt collector — something he said in his first Impact promo back in December.
Sacrifice is set for Saturday, March 13th, exclusively on Impact Plus.
Omega and Impact Tag Team Champions The Good Brothers defeated Swann, Moose and Chris Sabin at January’s Hard To Kill, furthering along the AEW/Impact angle. Omega has been off Impact TV since then, “dealing with business” in AEW.
