As announced by IMPACT Wrestling today, the latest edition of Fight Network’s Diary series will center on Sami Callihan as he prepared to take on and ultimately win the IMPACT Championship from Brian Cage at Bound For Glory. It will also touch on IMPACT’s AXS TV debut and feature interviews from several important behind the scenes figutes. The episode is described as such by the company:
Diary captures the enigmatic brawler before, during, and after his headlining bout for the IMPACT World Championship, giving viewers a no-holds-barred glimpse into the man behind the mayhem and his preparation for one of the most important days of his career. Through candid interviews with Callihan, fellow IMPACT wrestler Jessicka Havok, and IMPACT Executive Vice President Scott D’Amore, the first episode sheds light on the oVe figurehead as he shares his thoughts on his role in IMPACT Wrestling, provides insight into his unique persona, describes his mindset heading into the match and reflects on his unabashed love for professional wrestling, among other introspective topics. The second docu-series focuses on Callihan’s World Championship Steel Cage match on the debut episode of IMPACT! on AXS TV taping from Windsor.
IMPACT Executive Vice President Scott D’Amore had this to say when describing the current champion:
At 24 years old, he signed with a major television wrestling company, and the first thing they wanted to do was change who he was and how he approached everything. Rather than assimilate, Sami Callihan quit and he walked away. Because he wanted to do it on his own terms. If you’re gonna be a revolutionary, you can’t be a revolutionary by following the trends.
The full episodes will hit both Fight Network and IMPACT’s YouTube channels, with the first video premiering earlier today. Episode 2 will air on November 27 on the same channels.
