Kenny Omega Set For Action At Impact's "Under Siege" Event, Six-Way Match Also Announced
Tonight on Impact Wrestling, tensions were at an all-time high, as the AEW World and AAA Mega Champion added the Unified Impact World Championship to his golden collection this past Sunday at Rebellion.
In an effort to fix things, Executive Vice President Scott D'Amore issued a 6 Way #1 Contenders Match Qualifier to determine who will rightfully become the next No. 1 Contender to Omega's newest titles. D'Amore announced that at Under Siege on Saturday, May 15, there will be a six-way match. Whoever wins that match will earn a title opportunity in the future.
To enter this six-way matchup in two weeks, there will be six qualifying matches. On tonight's show, Chris Bey and Matt Cardona successfully punched their tickets and will take part in this match. But the third match tonight, however, is still undetermined.
On tonight's main event, Sami Callihan and Eddie Edwards renewed their hostilities towards each another for a shot at becoming the next man added to the match in two weeks. Despite the clean back and forth exchanges between Callihan and Edwards, the champion Kenny Omega and The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows & Karl Anderson) interrupted their matchup, causing both men an unfavorable outcome.
As the brawl ensued, the Impact World Tag Team Champions FinJuice (Juice Robinson & David Finlay) ran down to the ring to even the odds for Callihan and Edwards. But The Good Brothers and Omega cleaned house showing Callihan, Edwards and FinJuice all sprawled out both in and out the ring.
Right after the show went off the air, Impact announced that Kenny Omega and The Good Brothers will be in action against Eddie Edwards and FinJuice. This past Sunday, FinJuice retained their championship against The Good Brothers. Can Edwards and FinJuice seek retribution for what Omega and The Good Brothers did on tonight's show?

Next week, the six-way qualifying matches will continue. It'll be:
* Chris Sabin vs. Rhino
* James Storm vs. Moose
* Rohit Raju vs. Trey Miguel
The winners of these three matches will even out the rest of the six-way match in two weeks, except for the Callihan-Edwards match from tonight. Stay tuned with Wrestling Inc. and Impact Wrestling for any upcoming announcements in regards to the unsettling ending to Callihan-Edwards' matchup.

- Speaking of other matches announced for Under Siege, Fire 'N Flava (Kiera Hogan and Tasha Steelz) is demanding a rematch for the Knockouts Tag Team Championships against Jordynne Grace and Rachael Ellering. Grace and Ellering secured the pinfall victory and championships from Fire 'N Flava this past Sunday at Rebellion.
Also, Willie Mack and W. Morrissey will square off in singles action. This comes after W. Morrissey made his Rebellion debut on Sunday with Violent By Design and viciously defeated Mack, Eddie Edwards, Chris Sabin and James Storm. W. Morrissey won his scheduled bout tonight against Sam Beale in a brutal beatdown.

Kenny Omega & The Good Brothers (Doc Gallows & Karl Anderson) vs. Eddie Edwards & FinJuice (Juice Robinson & David Finlay)
