<p>The TNA World Heavyweight Championship is now an official title on Impact Wrestling.</p>



<p>Since the Impact Rebellion event last year, Moose has been carrying around the old TNA World Heavyweight Championship title and calling himself the champion, but Impact initially did not recognize the title or Moose as the champion.</p>



<p>The TNA title was technically retired in 2017 and the Impact World Championship, with a new design, was introduced during the Redemption event in 2018. The current champion is Rich Swann. &nbsp;</p>



<p>During the No Surrender event, after Swann had successfully defended his championship against Tommy Dreamer, Moose came out and attacked both men. The show closed with Moose holding both the TNA and Impact Titles, implying that he is now Swann’s rival for Impact’s top title.</p>



<p>During the latest episode of Impact, Moose came down to the ring after a match between Jake Something and Deaner. He attacked Jake and cut a promo, apologizing to AXS TV and saying the show won’t go on until he got an Impact title shot.</p>

<p>Impact Official Scott D’ Amore came out to tell Moose that Swann wasn’t at Impact as he wasn’t medically cleared. Jake tried to attack Moose but was held back by officials.</p>



<p>D’Amore then said that the TNA title is now an official title on Impact Wrestling and Moose would defend it that night against Jake.</p>
