Aussie Open, Yuya Uemura promotional debuts set for next Impact
Fresh off a pair of high-level performances in the AEW Trios title tournament, NJPW Strong Tag Team Champions Aussie Open will make their Impact debuts on next Thursday’s show.
Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis will take on Bullet Club’s Ace Austin & Chris Bey in tag team action, continuing a rivalry between the United Empire and Bullet Club from NJPW.
Joining Aussie Open in making a debut next week is fellow NJPW wrestler Yuya Uemura. Uemura has been seen in NJPW Strong for most of the year with occasional indie appearances thrown in. He has been in the U.S. since the fall of 2021.

Heath has targeted the group for taking out his friend and tag team partner Rhino while Edwards is looking ahead to his challenge of Impact World Champion Josh Alexander at October’s Bound For Glory.
Knockouts Tag Team Champion Chelsea Green will face former champion Taya Valkyrie in singles action as well.
Here’s the current lineup, recently taped in Dallas, Texas:
