Austin Aries becomes the new Impact World Champion
Impact World Champion Eli Drake and Chris Adonis came out for an Eli Drake’s Life Celebration. Adonis said Drake was the greatest champion that ever lived, the greatest dresser that ever lived and the greatest friend that ever lived.
Austin Aries made his return to the company and pointed out he was the greatest man that ever lived. Aries challenges Drake to a match, but Drake initially declines. Adonis then attacks Aries and Drake accepts Aries’ challenge for a shot at the championship.
Aries and Drake wrestled the match in street clothes. Aries hit his dropkick in the corner and then a brainbuster to become the new Impact World Champion!
