Going into IMPACT Wrestling Slammiversary, Sami Callihan has found himself the number one contender to Kenny Omega. Callihan, as sadistic and selfish as he is, has sent a pretty clear message to AEW stars since this partnership began. Namely, enter at your own risk.
With Kenny Omega and The Good Brothers running roughshod over IMPACT Wrestling, Callihan finally decided to take matters into his own hands. He'd been screwed out of title opportunities, and was even fired by former IMPACT EVP Don Callis. Omega has done everything he could to avoid him, but it's all been in vain.
Trending
On July 17th, Sami Callihan will challenge Kenny Omega for the IMPACT World Title, and he's vowed to make that night hell for The Best Bout Machine. We've seen how Omega operates over the past seven months, and IMPACT fans understand how crafty and sadistic Callihan is. It's definitely going to be a clash of styles, but if the fight is a dirty one, expect the latter to come out on top.
Today we'll take a look at possible endings for the IMPACT World Title match at Slammiversary.
#5 Moose interferes to set up a three-way for the IMPACT Wrestling World Title
Moose has made it very clear he's not finished with Kenny Omega. The self-proclaimed Mr. IMPACT Wrestling was screwed out of the world title match at Against All Odds thanks to The Young Bucks. He was trying to get another match against Omega at Slammiversary before he found himself facing off against Chris Sabin.
On July 17th, Sabin will look to get some revenge against Moose, who injured the former and his tag partner James Storm earlier this year. However, whether Moose wins or not is inconsequential. Sabin isn't his target, Omega is.
Well, specifically, the IMPACT World Title is. Knowing that, he has two options. He could cost Kenny Omega the gold, or he could cost Sami Callihan the title. Considering Moose believes he's the God of Wrestling, that ego won't let him give the latter an easy win.
Moose will more than likely cut Callihan down to make sure the next time he challenges for the IMPACT World Title, he'll also be getting a rematch against Omega.
#4 The Good Brothers interfere on behalf of Kenny Omega
When it comes to the IMPACT Wrestling World Champion, it's a tale as old as time. Every time Kenny Omega has been in trouble, he's found help from two different tag teams. With The Young Bucks watching his back in AEW and The Good Brothers doing the same in IMPACT Wrestling, he is never truly by himself.
Ever since aligning himself with Don Callis, Omega has won very few matches without some kind of interference. You can count his clean victories on one hand and still have fingers to spare. Odds are The Good Brothers are coming down to the ring in the main event. They won't be letting Sami Callihan walk out with the IMPACT Wrestling World Title.
The Good Brothers even interfered in an AEW World Title Match between Omega and Jon Moxley.
Considering that, one would have to think Callihan has somebody watching his back, right? He's probably the most hated man on the roster, so he'd have to leave the company for some help. If only a former tag team partner had a history with Kenny Omega.
#3 Switchblade Conspiracy reunites at IMPACT Wrestling Slammiversary
That's right, we're calling for Jon Moxley to show up at Slammiversary. Between 2009 and 2011 Sami Callihan and Moxley formed the team known as the Switchblade Conspiracy. The duo even held the wXw Tag Team Titles for over 300 days.
With two of the most violent men in professional wrestling as enemies, Kenny Omega could be in for a rude awakening at IMPACT Wrestling's Slammiversary. To even up the odds, Moxley may even bring in another former IMPACT talent in Eddie Kingston.
Moxley and Kingston have been a constant thorn in the side of Omega and The Young Bucks for months now. At some point, everyone Omega's screwed over is going to get their revenge. Let's make that happen at the first IMPACT show that has fans back in attendance.
Sami Callihan even tried to bring Jon Moxley to IMPACT after he left WWE, according to Cassidy Haynes of Bodyslam.net. Maybe Moxley will decide to accept that invitation come July 17th.
#2 Kenny Omega takes out Sami Callihan on his own
While interference has riddled the record of the IMPACT Wrestling World Champion, Kenny Omega has bested some of the most exciting wrestlers on the planet clean as a whistle. First and foremost, he beat Rich Swann with no help from The Good Brothers or The Young Bucks.
Recently, Omega successfully defended the AEW World Championship against Jungle Boy with no assistance from The Elite. The man is capable of it. Make no mistake, The Best Bout Machine did not get that moniker for no reason.
Sami Callihan could very well be a more dangerous competitor than Kenny Omega, especially outside of the ring. However, in that ring, Omega is miles ahead of The Draw of IMPACT Wrestling.
As we've seen, all it takes for Omega to beat anyone is the One-Winged Angel. Just once, and it's goodnight for his opponent, whoever they may be.
#1 Sami Callihan finally dethrones the IMPACT Wrestling World Champion
On the other hand, what makes Sami Callihan dangerous is the brawling. He's scrappy and is never truly out of a fight. He may be expecting Omega's cronies to come in and wreak havoc, and may have a game plan.
He vowed to Don Callis that he would bash the brains of the IMPACT World Champion in. With the Callihan Slugger in tow, The Draw has an equalizer for the likes of The Good Brothers and even The Young Bucks.
Unlike many performers Omega has faced lately, Callihan's not worried about getting his hands dirty. He'll go low, he'll break Omega's limbs on the steel steps. Just ask anybody he's faced in IMPACT Wrestling.
With a live and raucous fanbase in attendance, this author is hoping to see Callihan spike Omega with the Cactus Driver and end Slammiversary on a high note.
