The greatest karate rivalry in wrestling history will come to a head at IMPACT Hard To Kill.
On Tuesday's IMPACT Wrestling it was confirmed that Ethan Page will battle The Karate Man on January 16. Page and his alter ego agreed to the match after a therapy session on the show. Page has slowly lost his mind on IMPACT following The North (Page & Josh Alexander) losing the IMPACT Tag Team Championships at Turning Point in November.
The Karate Man made Page surrender at The Invitation Part 2, which aired on YouTube on December 30.
