The following matches and segments were taped on Thursday, but did not air as part of Destination X:
Xplosion
– Braxton Sutter def. Kongo Kong in a promotional match that featured local DJs in each wrestler’s corner.
– Mahabali Shera def. Fallah Bahh
Impact (8/24)
– Jeremy Borash interviewed Taryn Terrell about why she attacked Gail Kim at Destination X. Taryn cut a really good promo on Gail, noting that she wants to speed up Gail’s retirement. The Hall of Fame Knockout came down to the ring and chased Taryn off.
– OVE def. The Heatseekers via pinfall in another impressive outing from the new duo.
– Grado and Joseph Park came out to the ring so Grado could have a proper send-off since he’s being deported. Before they leave, a sober Laurel Van Ness came out in a new dress to propose. Of course, Grado said yes. Kongo Kong started to march down to the ring when Mahabali Shera stopped him. Grado, Park, Laurel, and Shera all celebrated in the ring.
– Eli Drake won a 20-man gauntlet by pinning Eddie Edwards to win the vacant GFW Global Championship. Eli and Edwards were the first to enter as well. This match featured the GFW debut of the former John Morrison, who is now going by Johnny Impact. Afterwards, Chris Adonis and Drake celebrated in the ring to end the taping.
