Impact Wrestling has packed the show for the 1000th episode of its weekly flagship show, with returning stars and big matches.
As PWMania.com previously reported, Impact announced today that Alex Shelley will defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Trey Miguel at the event.
Gail Kim, who currently works as a producer and Head of Talent Relations for Impact, revealed on Busted Open Radio that she will be returning to the ring for a match on the show. It is unknown with whom she will wrestle.
“What do you think, Tommy [Dreamer]? What are your opinions on this? [He said do it]. If Tommy says do it, then I’ll do it. If [Awesome] Kong can do it, if the Beautiful People can do it, If D-Von can do it, Gail, Kim can do it.”
