On Thursday, Impact Wrestling officials announced that Nick Wilson, who is the $1 million winner of Survivor: David vs. Goliath, will be sitting in the front row at their Homecoming PPV event. This plays off the fact that Johnny Impact was featured on this season of the reality show. It was noted in the press release that Wilson is bringing 10 other Impact fans as well as fellow Survivor contestant Davie Rickenbacker to the show.
“I’m really excited that Nick and Davie will be in my corner for the Homecoming pay-per-view match,” Johnny Impact stated. “Although I was rivals with both at the start of Survivor, we ultimately became good friends and I know each will have my back. Brian Cage won’t be able to blindside me with Nick and Davie watching my back.”
Impact Wrestling’s Homecoming pay-per-view event is scheduled to take place at The Asylum in Nashville, Tennessee on January 6, 2019. Here’s the updated card:
