Impact Star Rich Swann Undergoes Ankle Surgery

Impact Wrestling star Rich Swann underwent surgery yesterday to repair a recent ankle injury.

Impact tweeted on Thursday saying, “Wishing [Rich Swann] all the best as he goes into surgery today. Get well soon!” His wife Su Yung also wrote, “If anyone wants to leave a message for my husband Rich Swann, please do as he goes into surgery. Prayers are welcome.”

Swann suffered the injury before Impact’s Hard To Kill pay-per-view earlier this month at  Impact Bash at the Brewery 2 and it forced his partner to wrestle their scheduled match at Hard To Kill alone.

The exact injury Rich suffered has not been made public at this time.

New Impact World Title Belt Revealed (Photos)

Impact Wrestling has a new World Title belt to kick off 2020.

Impact World Champion Sami Callihan took to Twitter this week and revealed an up-close look at the design with black, red and gold on the front.

“#HappyNewYears,” Sami wrote. “@IMPACTWRESTLING loves me so much… they got me a NEW f–king belt. Black & Red like my heart. #TheDRAW”

It looks like the red has replaced the previous blue shading to represent the new Impact TV home, AXS.

Sami began his first Impact World Title reign during the AXS TV debut episode on October 29, 2019, which was taped on October 25. He defeated Brian Cage, who had won the title from Johnny Impact back at Rebellion on April 28. Sami’s title win was named the “Best Moment” in the 2019 Impact Year-End Awards.
