Impact Wrestling TV Tapings Spoilers – Over Drive 2022 Build, Title Changes

Impact Wrestling held a new set of Impact! television tapings on Saturday at the Albany Armory in Albany, New York. This new set of tapings were for the build of next month’s Over Drive 2022 event, which takes place on November 19th at the Old Forester’s Paristown Hall in Louisville, Kentucky.

F4WOnline’s Josh Nelson reported that the start time for Impact’s tapings last night was delayed due the lack of an on-site ambulance and the company being legally required to wait until one arrived for their event.

In regards to title changes at the tapings, Frankie Kazarian invoked Option C and vacated his Impact X-Division Championship for a shot at the Impact World Championship. The Impact World Tag Team Championship also changed hands with Heath & Rhino defeating The Kingdom to be crowned new champions.
