IMPACT Wrestling News & Notes: Reported Slammiversary Attendance + Contracts
Mike Johnson of PWInsider reported:
As seen at the end of the Slammiversary PPV, Josh Alexander is back from his biceps tear.
We’ve been asked about whether Lio Rush, Subculture, Kevin Knight and Jake Something have signed with the company.
In asking company sources, we are told Knight is considered a New Japan talent but the others have signed “some” sort of deal with Impact, although sources declined to comment on terms or length.
The company was expecting about 1,500 fans for the PPV.
Impact sources were very happy with the live house for the PPV in Windsor. There are tickets available for today’s TV Taping.
