Impact Wrestler of the Week: Matt Taven & Mike Bennett

The Honor No More tag team scored a win over Impact regulars Rich Swann & Rhino and looked impressive in the process. If Taven and Bennett stick around, I would look forward to them having a run with the tag team belts.

Impact Match of the Week: W. Morrissey vs. Brian Myers

The first half of the match included comedy spots with The Learning Tree, but the second half of the match turned into a really good no-DQ match that saw Morrissey win after power bombing Myers twice into thumbtacks. Morrissey looks really strong heading into his title match against Moose on Saturday at No Surrender. It was good to see Myers put in a featured match as well and he really came through.
