Earlier tonight at Victory Road, Christian Cage successfully retained his IMPACT World Title against Ace Austin in a hard-fought contest. But it was what happened after the match that sent shockwaves throughout the entire wrestling world.

Just moments after the bell, Christian Cage was confronted by dominant X-Division Champion Josh Alexander who also retained his title over X-Division veteran, Chris Sabin, earlier in the night. While staring down Christian Cage, Alexander would exercise Option C, meaning that he would relinquish the X-Division Title for an IMPACT World Title opportunity.
