Will Thursday night feature an Instant Classic? When Johnny IMPACT kicked off the show last week with his Championship Address, it seemed only a matter of time until he was joined by someone. Who would be first to challenge the throne? A former Champion? A familiar foe? How about a longtime friend? Johnny was joined by Fenix and the masked sensation issued a challenge.
Johnny knew he had been put on the spot and accepted the challenge from Fenix. The first World Championship Title defense for IMPACT comes this Thursday and this match has all the makings of an instant classic.
Speed vs. Speed
Both men operate in quick, tight and unpredictable fashion. Johnny can change his angle in a heartbeat and no one uses the ring quite like Fenix. A double springboard into an amazing move is like an arm drag for Fenix and Johnny IMPACT has been making a living taking risks his whole career. Who has the advantage here? It is too close to call.
Will IMPACT Change his game now that he is Champion? The hunter has become the hunted and this is unfamiliar territory for one Johnny IMPACT. We expect the same style and hold nothing back offense from the new Champion, but he has some time to adopt some new philosophies. Will Fenix give him the space?
That is what makes this encounter so intriguing. Fenix might have picked the perfect night to challenge Johnny IMPACT. Do it when he doesn’t expect it, don’t call him or text him and say, “hey we are friends! One day soon, I want to challenge you for the title.” Do it when Johnny didn’t expect it and that is exactly what Fenix did. A congratulations and then a challenge. Fenix has watched his brother, Pentagon Jr., become IMPACT World Champion and now wants his turn at a chance.
Can Fenix become World Champion? There is only one way to find out! Don’t miss IMPACT this Thursday night on our brand new time of 10PM ET/9PM CT on Pop to see this potential Instant Classic between two warriors of the ring.
