#4. The Live Wrestling Part 2: NWA and Impact Wrestling

Following the two RevPro shows was a nice little surprise as Nick Aldis and Doug Williams went one-on-one for the right to challenge Cody Rhodes for the NWA Title at the NWA's big upcoming 70th anniversary show. It was a great classic feel match and also a great moment for Nick and Doug to share the ring together one last time with Williams' retirement ever looming.
Then we were treated to Impact Wrestling's big return to the UK, and having had the opportunity to speak to a lot of the guys involved beforehand I could tell they were throwing the kitchen sink at this one. They put on a great show with the LAX vs Jody Fleisch and Jonny Storm Impact World Tag-Team Title match and the Jimmy Havoc Vs. Sami Callihan Barbed Wire Baseball Bat Deathmatch standing out.

I didn't get any video highlights of this one as my recording device annoying ran out of storage (bad planning on my part!) But Impact have done a good job of posting the highlights themselves on their Twitter. Alternatively you can head to Twitch and just watch the show for free. WHICH YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST DO. Ahem.
Seriously, the LAX vs Jonny Storm and Jody Fleisch tag match and the Deathmatch are something else. Click the links here to watch them in their entirety, I promise you won't be disappointed.
To conclude...
Wrestling MediaCon was the first event of its kind in the UK, and any wrestling fan able to attend will surely have been thrilled with the chance to mingle and interact with the wrestlers and wrestling personalities we know and love. I know I sure was! Here's hoping to a return for 2019!
