IMPACT Wrestling Results: Rich Swann surrounded in World Title picture, Jazz makes her debut

IMPACT Wrestling lost a major part of their family recently in Bob Ryder. Without Mr. Ryder, this company wouldn't even exist, as he was the one who talked Jeff and Jerry Jarrett into starting TNA in the early 2000s. In fact, he was with the company from its launch in 2002 until his unfortunate death on November 24th.Tonight's episode was dedicated to his memory and everything he did for the company and every single person who walked through the doors.Tonight's IMPACT is dedicated to the memory of Bob Ryder.
