Mike Bailey vs. Kenny King Pit Fight match announced for January 19 Impact

The collision course for rivals Kenny King and “Speedball” Mike Bailey now has an intersection as the two will meet in a Pit Fight match on the January 19th episode of Impact on AXS TV.

The match will feature no ropes and it can only be finished by either submission or knockout.

After Bailey defeated King in the first round of November’s X-Division title tournament, King cost Bailey an opportunity to advance further by attacking Trey Miguel in his second round match which gave the bout to Miguel by disqualification. 

Both were part of a six-way scramble on November’s Countdown to Over Drive show, and have been trading verbal jabs on Impact TV with Bailey issuing the challenge on this past Thursday’s show.

The match will take place on the post-Hard to Kill TV taping in Atlanta, Georgia, on Saturday, January 14th.

Bailey will be in action in another scramble match on the Hard to Kill pre-show while King currently isn’t scheduled for the event.
