Impact Wrestling 6/8/23 Results and Review

I don’t know a lot about recent Impact wrestling action, so this is my first time looking into it. I’ll no doubt want to check out what is going on, so here we go, the results and review for Impact Wrestling that aired 6/8/23.

Chris Bey defeated Jason Hotch

A solid opening match, with some good back and forth action. This wasn’t amazing or anything, and it was only around 7 minutes long. A short match with some good moments. Bey was good here, and Hotch didn’t hold back, with both men trading blows overall.

After the match Brian Myers and John Skyler jumped Chris Bey, and ended up getting involved with a beat down. It wasn’t terrible.

Heath defeated Champagne Singh

Hey! It’s Heath Slater! This was a fast match with not a whole lot to write about. Sure it had a little back and forth, but it wasn’t much, and under 3 minutes, it’s  honestly ridiculous. I thought WWE had short matches. Heath hit a Wake up Call and won the match. It was a match, but not much of one.

Joe Hendry defeated Sheldon Jean

I’m not familiar with either person in the match. I only heard the names in passing. The match had a bit of a back and forth feel to it, with both men trading moves. There were some slow moving options here and there, with a few power moves, but overall it was a standard modern match. Don’t expect a lot of high flying options here, as it was just a standard match, with nothing too thrilling to write about.

The Coven defeated Death Dollz in the Women’s Tag Team Title Match

This back and forth affair wasn’t too crazy, and it was interesting to see two different teams. I didn’t see any of the women before, although Taylor Wilde seemed familiar. This had a good deal of brawling, and some power moves to boot, but it was definitely not a long winded matchup. After about 6 minutes or so, this match ended, and it was ok at best.

Trey Miguel defeated Bhupinger Gujjar

Not enough time was given to this X-Division match. Gujjar threw in some offense here and there, and Trey was able to thwart some of the movements. Miguel would eventually tie this one down, and won with a flurry of moves. The crowd wasn’t really into this one, with a few people shouting, but mostly quiet. I was actually a little bored with this 5 minute match. Can’t win em all.

Moose and Rich Swann defeated Jonathan Gresham and Nick Aldis

A somewhat slow moving affair was had in the main event tonight. It wasn’t fun to watch, it was just meandering for the most part. These people are going to be in the number one contenders match at Against All Odds. I didn’t hate this, mind you, it had a lot of back and forth, but it wasn’t great either. Moose was doing things great here, and really is impressive with power. Gresham was good too, and Aldis is always interesting to see as well, but it wasn’t a balanced affair at all. Moose and Swann would get the win, but not without a good fight towards the end.

Overall Thoughts

There’s a reason why not a lot of podcasts or bloggers are talking about Impact Wrestling. While it’s not that great, it had its moments overall. I would watch it in person, and would definitely keep an eye out for some quality match ups from the Impact crew.
