TNA Wrestling came out of last night's Sacrifice event with four matches officially announced for April's Rebellion pay-per-view, setting up several key storylines for the upcoming show.
Hardy Boyz Face System Challenge at Rebellion
The biggest match confirmed for Rebellion will see The Hardys defending the World Tag Team Championships against Brian Myers and Bear Bronson of The System. Myers earned this title shot by winning the Feast or Fired match earlier this year.
The Righteous are expected to play a role in the championship match after finally turning on The Hardys at Sacrifice. Vincent had teamed with Jeff Hardy during the event to face Myers and Cedric Alexander, but a backstage video showed Dutch standing over a bloody Matt Hardy.
The System then attacked Jeff Hardy and scored the pinfall victory as Vincent stood by without helping his former allies.
Three Additional Matches Announced
TNA also confirmed three other matches for the Rebellion card. Cedric Alexander will challenge Leon Slater for the X Division Championship, continuing Alexander's pursuit of singles gold.
Elijah will face Frankie Kazarian in a one-on-one encounter, while Trey Miguel will defend the International Championship against Mustafa Ali.
World Championship Picture Remains Unclear
While TNA World Champion Mike Santana is expected to defend his title at Rebellion, no challenger has been announced following the controversial ending to Sacrifice's main event.
