Storylines
The matches are made from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portray heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results are predetermined by Impact Wrestling writers, while storylines are produced on their weekly television program, Impact!.[2]
On the July 21 episode of Impact!, The Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin) defeated The North (Ethan Page and Josh Alexander) to win the Impact World Tag Team Championship for the second time.[3] On the August 4 episode of Impact!, The North confronted The Motor City Machine Guns to announce their cashing in their rematch clause for the tag titles at Emergence, with Impact announcing it will take place on night one.[4][5]
At Slammiversary, Deonna Purrazzo defeated Jordynne Grace by submission to win the Impact Knockouts Championship.[6] On the July 28 episode of Impact!, Purrazzo defeated Kimber Lee in a singles match by submission, and after the match, Grace attacked Purrazzo whilst her arm was in a sling, as a result of muscle damaged caused by the armbar submission that made Grace submit to Purrazzo at Slammiversary, causing Purrazzo to flee from the ring.[7] On August 12, it was announced that Purrazzo will defend the title against Grace on night two of Emergence.[1]
At Slammiversary, Chris Bey defeated Willie Mack to win the Impact X Division Championship.[6] The following weeks saw Rohit Raju align himself with Bey and stir up animosity between him and TJP.[3][7] On the August 11 episode of Impact!, Raju convinced Bey to give both him and TJP an X Division title shot in a three-way match at Emergence, with Impact announcing it will take place on night one.[1][5]
