Impact Wrestling has officially announced that the “Undead Bride” Su Yung will defend the Knockouts Championship at this year’s Slammiversary pay-per-view, against a true legend of the division, five-time champion Madison Rayne.
They have been running a story over the last few weeks where Rayne returned to the promotion and was on commentary during women’s division matches, but was pulled back into action when challenged by Tessa Blanchard. After defeating Blanchard at Impact Under Pressure, the Killer Queen continued to pick up steam, and this week scored a huge win over “Lucha Royalty” Taya Valkyrie to be named #1 contender to the title.
Here’s the updated match card:
Impact World Heavyweight Championship
Austin Aries (c) vs. Moose
Knockouts Championship
Su Yung (c) vs. Madison Rayne
X-Division Championship
Matt Sydal (c) vs. Brian Cage
Plus…
– Johnny Impact returns to action!
– NJPW star “Bone Soldier” Taiji Ishimori in action!
BREAKING: @MadisonRayne will have the opportunity to become a six time Knockouts Champion as she will challenge "The Undead Bride" @realsuyung at Slammiversary! #IMPACTonPop
