Love that Man Scout is getting time on RoH, lol. Dan the Dad has to be next because why not.

Jake had a one off appearance last year or in 2021 right for x division stuff? I was surprised he didn't return full time after that, he looked great

Beileve so. I have been watching him in the indes as of late and the guy has yet to fail to deliver. Him and Wentz are two people I want IMPACT to sign

Impact needs this

 

[Chris]

I think sadly the reason why those guys haven't been hired and Impact downsized a bit of their midcard (like Willie Mack) is bc they can only afford to pay so many peoples travel expenses so they use their small base roster and locals (some bigger name, some legends, some jobbers) from the area. Bit of a win/lose on traveling more instead of staying in the same place I guess, I prefer this tho if that's the case

Yes! Reed is talent

 

[Canadian Dragon]

yeah I am pretty sure as a freelancer impact doesnt pay as much as doing a taping in Florida

Fair enough. It is just that there are people, if you want a exact number it would be about 5 or 6, that I think would boost impact's pool a bit or add depth, and people I know would be a star in IMPACt compared to elsewhere.

Oh for sure I agree, I'm just trying to rationalize why some of those guys haven't been scooped up bc I doubt Impact doesn't have them on their radar. Travel expenses make more sense to me than even a base contract just bc you're gonna be paying essentially the same for a jobber to fly to Vegas as a bigger name

Yeah, I agree I do think that is the biggest reason, and I doubt Anthem would shill out a bit more money to help them out. Now with RoH being a thing again, they are another player in the game that could get people that IMPACT is interested in.

 

[Alexa]

Also, for the record, that wasn't me bashing RoH.

 

[Chris]

I'm ngl the Anthem and Impact financials are intriguing to me, I wish I could see them lol

 

[Alexa]

Same honestly. I am sure they have more money they could use to help expand IMPACt because let's face it IMPACT has a loyal fanbase, but I am getting into that because it will start a flame war, lol.

The way they plug all their other projects on Impact so hard makes me feel like Impact is by far their best performer too but in fairness...I don't watch Invicta, maybe Impact gets plugs on there lol can't imagine it's as much as Impact does for them

By that sense if IMPACt is the bigger money maker then why not invest more into it? You know. I am sure there is more to it all, but if that is the case then IMPACT should have more budget, and should be able to expand a bit more.
