On Thursday's IMPACT, Mickie James relinquished the IMPACT Knockouts Championship due to a rib injury.
James was scheduled to face Jordynne Grace at IMPACT Sacrifice, but could not compete due to the injury. Grace would move on to IMPACT Rebellion to face Deonna Purrazzo, who won a four-way bout against Masha Slamovich, Gisele Shaw, and Miyu Yamashita at IMPACT x NJPW Multiverse United in a singles bout if James wasn't cleared. Had James been cleared, the match at IMPACT Rebellion would have been a triple threat bout.
This marks Purrazzo's third reign as IMPACT Knockouts Champion.
Purrazzo is scheduled to be a guest on In The Weeds on Monday.
