Impact Hyping AEW & NJPW Involvement At Bound For Glory

Impact Wrestling’s next PPV will be Bound For Glory on October 23rd from Las Vegas. This news was announced during the Slammiversary show on Saturday night. The video Impact released to promote the PPV features the logos for AEW, NJPW, and AAA.

The video begins with flashes of the Las Vegas cityscape interspersed with images of wrestlers from Impact’s roster. Then beginning at the 24 second mark of the below video, flashes of AEW’s logo, NJPW’s logo, and AAA’s logo are shown.

Impact Wrestling Talent-Sharing Agreements

Perhaps no other promotion in wrestling right now is diving in deeper through the forbidden door than Impact. Slammiversary on Saturday closed with former IWGP Heavyweight Champion and leader of Bullet Club, Jay White confronting Impact World Champion Kenny Omega. The camera cut away before fans could see if White would “2 Sweet” members of the Elite.

Impact has brought in talent from all 3 promotions featured in the video teaser in recent months. Black Taurus from AAA has joined the Decay faction along with Crazzy Steve, Rosemary, and now Havok. NJPW has sent FinJuice, Satoshi Kojima, El Phantasmo, and now Jay White. AEW has sent Kenny Omega, Private Party, Matt Hardy, and others.

Although the NWA logo is not shown in the video, Impact and Billy Corgan’s company appear to have established a relationship. Former NWA Women’s Champion Thunder Rosa wrestled Deonna Purrazzo at Slammiversary. Mickie James then invited Purrazzo to NWA Empowerrr next month in St. Louis. Ring of Honor has also had some online interactions with Purrazzo recently. Chelsea Green also appeared as a surprise on both an ROH and Impact PPV over the last two weekends.
