Mickie James retuned to the ring…and won.
Mickie competed in the ring this weekend for a match in France as part of the Association Biterroise de Catch” Festival International De Catch”, where she wrestled in the Jean Corne Cup against Aurora Teves. Mickie won the match, and the Jean Corne Cup.
Her opponent, Aurora Teves, comments:
A few weeks ago, Mickie’s husband Nick Aldis commented on her inJust status:
“She’s 100%, Shes Going To Show Up Again In IMPACT Wrestling At Some Point”
This was Mickie‘s first match back since sustaining injury back in March.
On March 23rd, IMPACT Wrestling took to their social media Twitter account to announce that Mickie James was injured and would not be able to compete at their LIVE Sacrifice event the following night. They said an update would be provided at the LIVE event.
Mickie announced at IMPACT’s LIVE Sacrifice that she was hoping to only be out for a few weeks, but she would have to remove herself from the IMPACT Knockouts World Title match at IMPACTxNJPW Multiverse United match, instead making it a #1 contender match and replacing herself with Masha Slamovich. She also stated that Jordynne Grace would automatically be involved in the Knockouts Title match at Rebellion and would wrestle whoever won the Multiverse match, with herself being added if she was cleared to compete. She stated that another update would be provided prior to Rebellion.
Mickie James was last seen in an IMPACT Wrestling ring on the 4/13 episode of IMPACTonAXSTV, when she was forced to relinquish the Knockouts World Title due to injury.
A new champion would be crowned 3 days later when Deonna Purrazzo battled Jordynne Grace at the Rebellion Pay Per View.
There has been alot of speculation that we could see Mickie James make a return of some kind at IMPACT’s Slammiversary Pay Per View on July 15th. We’ll have to tune in to find out.
