IMPACT Knockouts Title Match Set For Bound For Glory 2022

IMPACT Knockouts Champion Jordynne Grace finally knows who her challenger will be at Bound For Glory on October 7, after a number one contender’s match on the September 1 edition of IMPACT Wrestling.

Grace will be defending the title against Masha Slamovich, after Slamovich overcame former champion Deonna Purrazzo for a shot at the gold. Slamovich is undefeated in IMPACT in 2021, and this will be the Russian’s first shot at Knockouts gold.

Slamovich and Grace have only wrestled in IMPACT on one previous occasion, with Grace picking up the win on an episode of Xplosion in 2019, and ahead of their title showdown IMPACT released the following statement:

“Masha Slamovich has been on an unstoppable tear since arriving in IMPACT Wrestling, destroying anyone and everyone who has stood in her path. Following an impressive 14-0 win streak, Slamovich confronted Knockouts World Champion Jordynne Grace and handed her the ominous “death warrant”. But before she could lay claim to the #1 contendership, Slamovich would go on to defeat former multi-time Knockouts World Champion Deonna Purrazzo and secure her golden opportunity. The stage is now set for this monumental showdown between two of the most intense, unrelenting Knockouts of all time – and something has got to give.”

IMPACT Bound For Glory will air live from Albany, New York, on Friday October 7 2022.
