Moose Becomes Number One Contender For IMPACT World Title, Will Face Kenny Omega At Against All Odds
Kenny Omega’s next challenger for IMPACT World Title has been decided.
After the AEW superstar won the promotion’s Unified Championship at Rebellion, the locker room was upset that their top prize was no longer held by a member of their roster. This despite the fact that Omega is contractually obligated to appear on IMPACT television while he holds the belt.
As a result of the uproar, Scott D’Amore announced a 6-Way Match at Under Siege to determine the new number one contender. Chris Bey, Matt Cardona, Sami Callihan, Trey Miguel, Chris Sabin, and Moose all earned their way into the bout via qualifying matches.
During the match, The Good Brothers came out and assaulted Callihan. Sami had a run-in with Don Callis two weeks prior where he explicitly said that he had his sights set on The Best Bout Machine. After every man had their chance to win, it was Moose who emerged victoriously. He targeted the knee of Chris Sabin and eventually put him away with a spear. As the camera zoomed in, he could be heard saying, “I’m coming to get back what’s ours!”

Moose lost the TNA Championship to Rich Swann in a Title vs. Title match to unify the IMPACT belts back at Sacrifice 2021. Omega defeated Swann for those very belts at Rebellion. Moose will look to take the title back home when he faces off with the AEW Champion at IMPACT’s Against All Odds on June 12.
