Knockouts Tag Team title match set for Impact Slammiversary

Sometimes friends and sometimes enemies Taya Valkyrie and Rosemary will team up once again to challenge for the Knockouts Tag Team titles at this Sunday’s Impact Slammiversary.

The two will attempt to take the belts from The Influence (Madison Rayne & Tenille Dashwood) and end their 100+ day run.

Rosemary will be looking for her second tag title reign while Valkyrie will be gunning for her first.

Valkyrie initially wrapped up with Impact in January 2021, written off after she was taken in custody as the culprit behind the John E. Bravo shooting. Valkyrie’s motive: she wanted to prevent her friend from marrying Bravo.

On last week’s show, Valkyrie came out to Rosemary’s aid after she was being attacked by Rayne and Dashwood following her win over Dashwood.
