Eddie Edwards will lock horns against NJPW veteran Satoshi Kojima on the upcoming edition of IMPACT Wrestling.

The two teamed up on the previous episode, where they challenged Violent By Design's Deaner and Joe Doering for the IMPACT Wrestling Tag Team Championship. Despite a spirited effort, they failed to capture the titles.

Eddie Edwards made the special request to wrestle Satoshi Kojima on this week's episode before the veteran performer departs for Japan. Considering how revered these two performers are, the bout promises to be nothing less than a banger.

Satoshi Kojima, a former two-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion, debuted for IMPACT Wrestling in May and fought Doering at Against All Odds. He lost to the Violent By Design member at the event.

It would be interesting to see if W.Morrissey will play a part in the proceedings. A feud between the former WWE star and Edwards was teased in the previous episode and could intensify this week. By the looks of it, Edwards could clash with Morrissey at Slammiversary 2021.
