Best and worst of Impact Wrestling - 25 January 2019

#2 Worst: No Rosemary or Dark Allie

Just like lat 2018, Rosemary was absent from TV

For years now, Impact has really stepped it up in regards to the Knockouts Division, giving us instant classics featuring past and present stars like Jade, Sienna, Gail Kim, Taya Valkyrie, and Rosemary, just to name a few.

In what's probably Impact's most interesting story, we've seen Rosemary's former friend, Allie, turn to the dark side, abandoning Kiera Hogan to join Su Yung as Dark Allie. Last week, Dark Allie was squashed by Jordynne Grace. Afterwards, she was confronted by Rosemary, who recently returned at Impact Wrestling's Homecoming event back on January 6th.

After Allie again turned away from Rosemary last week, we were anticipating something big between the two this week. Sadly, that's not what we got. We saw Grace and Hogan interviewed backstage by Melissa Santos talking about the upcoming rematch from Homecoming.

Grace and Hogan will take on Dark Allie and Su Yung next week, but when Santos brought up Rosemary, the screens behind the three flickered, revealing a message from Rosemary stating "The Darkness Will Take you Too. This Is Not Your Fight. -R"

Considering how long we've been building to the eventual explosive showdown between Rosemary and Dark Allie, it's not surprising that Impact would want to drag it out and tease the fans more. Still, it was a letdown to not see Su Yung, Dark Allie, or Rosemary on TV.
