Last night at Impact Wrestling Rebellion pay per view, Kenny Omega defeated Rich Swann in the "winner takes all" title vs. title match, becoming the Impact Wrestling world champion in the process. Presumably that would also make him the TNA champion since Rich Swann beat Moose for that belt after Scott D'Amore officially sanctioned it, but we'll find out on Wednesday night if he brings that title with him. Deonna Purrazzo defeated Kimber Lee to retain the Knockouts title. FinJuice defeated the Good Brothers to retain the Impact tag team titles. Jordynne Grace and Rachel Ellering beat Fire N Flava for the Knockouts tag titles. Josh Alexander dethroned Ace Austin for the X Division title in a three way that included TJP. (IW)
