Impact Wrestling has removed five wrestlers from its roster this week, with their profiles being taken down from the company website which has sparked question marks about their futures with the company.
PWInsider reports that the following names have been removed: No Way, TJP, Taylor Wilde, Petey Williams, and Tommy Dreamer.
The removal of Williams is one that makes sense as he has recently had a tryout with WWE. He was backstage at SmackDown last week where he was working as a producer for the company.
Former ECW star, Dreamer, is another name that isn’t too much of a surprise considering the controversy surrounding him following his comments on Dark Side Of The Ring. The company suspended him in the aftermath, although Busted Open Radio has since brought him back to the show.
However, it is worth noting that the company hasn’t officially announced that any of these names have been released. It was stated that sources haven’t made any form of comment, with these removals not to be taken as a guarantee of any releases.
One of the hottest free agents in pro wrestling JONAH, f.k.a. Bronson Reed, was on a recent episode of The Wrestling Inc. Daily. JONAH has reportedly been in talks with many major promotions. Wrestling Inc. Managing Editor Nick Hausman asked JONAH how the free agency process is faring for him.
“Well, I’m not at liberty to say exactly what’s going to happen, but I am at the moment, this week, getting everything confirmed with immigration, so everything should be good to go, wherever I do go,” JONAH revealed. “But basically, I feel like the last few years exposed me to the rest of the world. People got to see what Bronson Reed had to offer but not really what JONAH had to offer. I was very much set in a mold of what WWE wanted me to be, so going forward, it’s more what I myself want to be as JONAH. So I’m looking to have some pretty cool matches and fun matches, a little different to what I did in WWE.”
The IInspiration recently opened up about how difficult the visa process was for them and how it caused them to miss Slammiversary. JONAH spoke more on his experience with the visa process.
“It’s a complete nightmare,” JONAH admitted. “That’s how it works, but no issues. Everything’s pretty much set in stone now. I have a great set of lawyers, actually, helping me out. As of next week, things should be set in stone for me to be able to work places. I’m not gonna say anything, but I think November, you’ll get to see JONAH around some places.”
There was speculation that JONAH could have shown up at Bound For Glory, and he clarified on whether he was meant to debut at Bound For Glory or not.
“At the moment, it’s everything to do with immigration, so I’m not able, legally, to do anything wrestling wise until all my immigration is sorted, but it should be sorted very soon, and I’m very happy about that,” JONAH expressed.
Just days removed from an unforgettable Bound For Glory, the fallout begins on an all-new IMPACT! from Sam’s Town in Las Vegas, this Thursday at 8/7c on AXS TV and 8:30pm ET on YouTube for IMPACT Insiders.
