Rich Swann Wins Impact Wrestling World Title At Bound For Glory
Capping off an eventful evening...
In a year that pretty much began with him suffering a horrific, career-threatening leg injury, Rich Swann completed an impressive comeback, defeating Eric Young at Saturday night's Bound For Glory pay-per-view to win Impact Wrestling's World title.
Swann pinned Young with a Phoenix splash, preceded by a Lethal Injection. Young's reign ends at 70 days.
Swann wasn't the only member of his household that won gold on Saturday. Wife Su Yung defeated Deonna Purrazzo to win the Knockouts title.
