First wrestlers qualify for TNA Emergence Ultimate X match

Posted on by Ethan Renner

Two of six spots are set for the Ultimate X match at TNA Emergence for the X-Division Championship.

Current X-Division Champion Mike Bailey won his qualifying match on Thursday’s Impact to both retain the title and qualify for Emergence, while Zachary Wentz won the other qualifying match on Thursday’s Impact and is headed to the Ultimate X match.

Bailey was victorious over Trent Seven and Jake Something in a qualifier on Thursday in a bout where had Bailey lost, he would have vacated the X-Division title and the Ultimate X match at Emergence would have been for the vacant title. Instead, Bailey will now defend his title in the Ultimate X bout.

Wentz scored a win in his qualifier over KC Navarro and WWE NXT’s Dante Chen on Thursday’s Impact to punch his ticket to Emergence.

Qualifying matches for the Emergence Ultimate X match for the X-Division Championship continue on next week’s TNA Impact.

Emergence will stream on TNA Plus on Friday, August 30 at 8 p.m. Eastern time. The Ultimate X match is currently the only bout officially announced for the show to this point.
