Tonight is the go-home show before
Rebellion, which is live this Sunday on FITE TV and traditional pay-per-view.
Rachael Ellering has arrived in Impact, and will team up with Jordynne Grace at Impact Rebellion. On this week’s Impact Wrestling, Ellering came out to save Grace from a two-on-one attack by Fire N’ Flava and helped run them off. It was revealed that Ellering will team up with Grace at Rebellion for the Knockouts Tag Team Title match against Fire N’ Flava.
Ellering previously had a couple of matches for Impact in March of 2017. She worked for WWE on the NXT brand in 2019, working their house show circuit, and had previously worked other WWE matches in 2016 and 2017. She was released as part of the budget cuts last year, and worked a couple of matches for AEW last year including a loss in the first round of the the AEW Women’s Tag Team Cup Tournament alongside Dasha Gonzalez.
Tonight on
Impact Wrestling, it was revealed that former WWE NXT Star Rachael Ellering will be Jordynne Grace’s tag team partner going into
Rebellion this Sunday. Grace and Ellering will challenge Fire ‘N Flava (Kiera Hogan & Tasha Steelz) for the Knockouts Tag Team Championship.
Just before their big matchup on Sunday, Grace faced Hogan in singles action. Jordynne was so close to picking up the pinfall victory on Hogan, but Tasha Steelz interfered in it, causing the match to be a throwaway.
As Fire ‘N Flava continued the violent beatdown on Grace, Ellering’s music hit, and she ran down to the ring to help even the odds for Grace. Once they sent the champions out of the ring, Grace announced that her former tag partner Jazz picked Ellering to take her place for Sunday’s matchup.
