– Jim Cornette has announced Matt Sydal vs. GFW World Heavyweight Champion Eli Drake for next Thursday’s GFW Impact (September 7th).
Cornette also announced El Hijo del Fantasma vs. Impact Grand Champion Ethan Carter III for the September 14th show.
– Here is the latest After Impact video with Josh Mathews and Scott D’Amore recapping last night’s show:
– Former X Division Champion Petey Williams returned to GFW Impact this week and picked up a win over Caleb Konley. It was Petey’s first Impact match in more than 8 years after returning at Destination X a few weeks back.
In a post-match video, Williams talks about his goal to elevate the X Division once again. He also says his Canadian Destroyer move has been “hookered” around the business while he’s been retired for the past 3 years. He claims to be the original ‘Canadian Destroyer’ and he’s going to save pro wrestling while he takes the move back. Williams also knocks Caleb and Trevor Lee, and thanks X Division Sonjay Dutt for having his back.
