Josh Alexander won the IMPACT World Championship at the Rebellion pay-per-view, defeating Moose in the main event of the show to win the title for a second time in his career. Alexander’s first reign took place at the Bound For Glory event in 2022. The reign would not last until the end of the show, as Moose cashed in his Call Your Shot privilege to defeat Alexander.
