The X Division Championship has a rich history in Impact Wrestling. The title has been held by performers including AJ Styles, Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels in the past. Tonight, it once again changed hands, and in shocking fashion.
The title change occurred during defending champion Mike Bailey’s match against Honor No More’s Kenny King. The challenger used the ropes and a little help from Maria Kanellis to get the win.
@KennyKingPb2 just STOLE the X Divison Championship! #IMPACTonAXSTV
The crowd shouted in disbelief as King scored the decisive pin over the Speedball. Kenny shed tears of joy as members of Honor No More came to the ring to celebrate his big win.
Mike Bailey had won the title during the Ultimate X match at the Slammiversary pay-per-view event earlier this year. Bailey defeated Ace Austin, Trey Miguel, Kenny King, Alex Zayne, and Andrew Everett.
