Impact announced on Tuesday that Frankie Kazarian will go one-on-one with The Design's Kon in Las Vegas. This match came about during the February 9 episode of "Impact" when Kazarian confronted Sami Callihan backstage and advised him not to join The Design. Deaner, Kon, and Angels then walked up on the conversation and Kazarian laid out the challenge to battle Kon.

Both men recently signed with the company as Kazarian requested his release from AEW to return to the promotion he once called home. Meanwhile, the former Ascension member has been a free agent since his WWE release in December 2019. He worked two matches for Impact in January 2022 before returning in November. Last month, it was confirmed that Kon signed a multi-year deal with Impact.

On the Countdown pre-show, "Speedball" Mike Bailey will take on Jonathan Gresham, while Deonna Purrazzo will square off against Gisele Shaw.
