Eddie Edwards won back the TNA X Division Championship on tonight’s Impact by winning Ultimate X over champion Mike Bennett, Mandrews, Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, DJZ, Rockstar Spud and Braxton Sutter.
Edwards’ first X reign came at Slammiversary but he lost the title to Bennett that same week at the TNA tapings. That match aired on 6/21.
Eddie is cashing in his Option C and will face TNA World Champion Bobby Lashley next week in a Title vs. Title match.
Here are comments from Eddie and Dixie Carter:
