Impact Pro Wrestling’s most unpredictable night of the year lived up to its name, as Fans Bring The Weapons brought chaos, catharsis, and championship shakeups to Mt Albert War Memorial Hall.

After a year-long war, SAS and Nu Blood finally collided in a brutal showdown that left the ring in ruins. Despite having the crowd behind them—and a wild arsenal of fan-provided weaponry—Nu Blood couldn’t dethrone the champions. SAS matched their intensity, weapon for weapon, and walked away still holding gold. With the feud now seemingly settled, the question remains: what’s next for both teams?

In a seismic shift for the women’s division, Mighty Maia defeated former multi-time champion Candy Lee to become the new IPW New Zealand Women’s Champion. Maia’s momentum was undeniable, and her win marks a new era at the top of NZ women’s wrestling.

Elsewhere, Horus returned to form in Warner Cup action, defeating Jacked Maximum while donning his classic look. The Duke of Death reminded everyone why he’s one of IPW’s most dominant competitors.

Tensions simmered in six-man tag action as Church & State overcame Jayrilla, Jake Shehaan, and Xander Taylor. With the IPW NZ Heavyweight Champion on the losing side, expect James Shaw to amplify his claims for a title shot.

The rest of the night was stacked with statement wins. Pariah took down the towering Liger, while Raven secured their first singles victory against Joseph Kruz, despite interference from Peter Prince—who later scored a win of his own over Jackson Graves. Khan Capital continued their climb in the tag team rankings with another solid victory.

Next up: Necessary Evil, live on Saturday, 1 November at Freeman’s Bay Community Centre. More details coming soon—stay tuned to IPW’s social channels for match announcements and ticket info.
