It was on March 24 when Alexander, who was the longest-reigning Impact World Champion, had to relinquish the title due to a torn triceps. He had been the champion since April 23, 2022. This past April at Rebellion, Steve Maclin defeated KUSHIDA to win the vacated title and held it until June at Against All Odds, where he lost it to Shelley.
