W. Morrisey done with Impact

[Comrade Khan]

W. Morrisey, aka the former Big Cass in WWE, has departed Impact Wrestling, PWInsider.com has confirmed. Tonight's episode of Impact Wrestling on AXS TV, featuring PCO & Morrisey vs. Moose & Steve Maclin will be his final appearance for the company.

Morrisey came to Impact in April 2021 and had one hell of a redemption run with great matches against Moose, Matt Cardona and more. He initially came in as a heel who was only out for himself saying that after everything he had endured, he realized he neehded no one's help and didn't want to pretend he liked anyone in the locker room or the crowd.

Over time, Morrisey was turned into a kickass babyface, including one of the best promos of his career on an episode of Impact on AXS from Philadelphia, the same venue he had a seizure in while dealing with his personal issues, noting that the last time he was there, he was not in control and ended up in an ambulance at the lowest point of his life. Now, he's back clean, sober and in the best shape of his life. He said that for the first time in his 33 years, he can admit that he's not alone and thanked the fans for showing him support. He was given a second chance. He was given opportunities and he's going to take full advantage of every single one of them.

Morrisey recently made an appearance for AEW, facing Wardlow on Dynamite several weeks ago. One can easily connect the dots as to where his next destination is likely to be, but his time in Impact, sparked by Doc Gallows booking him on Gallows' Lariato Pro Wrestling events in Georgia, should be seen as a textbook example of someone who fought back from the fringes to make himself once more a strong, marketable performer and absolutely proved himself in the process. It's a run he should look back upon and be very proud of and it's one that Impact should be commended for putting together, in my opinion.

going back to WWE or AEW ROH yall think?

Wish him well with whatever is next. He's been great on Impact and looked a million bucks in his AEW debut.

Would love to see him in ROH, tbh.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Same. My gut thinks WWE though

 

[Chris]

Anywhere that's not AEW or WWE would be a step down so def gonna be sad if he leaves and doesn't end up with one of those since Impact was such a good fit

 

[JakeYourBooty]

I bet he goes back to the fed
He’s in great shape he’s sober you gotta think they want to give him another shot

Guy had a hell of a year. Don't know what he's hoping for in looking elsewhere, unless he's fine to sit at home for more money

The E is trying to make something out of all these big guys Omos, Shanky, Aziz, Veer, Wagoner, not Veer, etc and then Cass is just as big and now has shown he can work better then all of them cept maybe veer

I was thinking ROH would be a step down as well but if his priority is money possibly not. Still just a big gray area rn

Depends if ROH can get on TV

 

[Comrade Khan]

yeah I have no idea what ROH is going to be or how it will look. No idea what it will be production wise either so hard to say if it will be a step up or down from Impact. also depends what channel, if any, they are on. many unknowns atm
