It was just announced that the Knockouts Tag Team Championships will return and they will crown new Knockouts Champions at the January Hard to Kill PPV which will take place on January 16, 2021. #BFG2020

The most entertaining aspect of tonight's lackluster PPV is Don Callis on color commentary. He has been extremely entertaining tonight. He might be the best color commentator in the business right now. He knows how to tell a story much better than Josh Mathews. #BFG2020

IMPACT really needs to think hard about having a small crowd. It would have really made a difference. They are trying hard to draw back fans who they may have lost from the TNA days. They have great talent in Swann and The North. #BFG2020
