IMPACT Wrestling tried to bring in some big names, it just didn't happen.
All throughout Bound For Glory week, even talent believed that Braun Strowman was coming in to the company. We can confirm that the two sides had talks, but obviously Strowman wasn't at Bound For Glory, and we're told that a deal has not been made.
Bray Wyatt was also contacted about possibly coming in, although he would not have been able until after Bound For Glory as his non-compete wasn't up. We're told that a deal to bring in Bray Wyatt to IMPACT Wrestling was never close to happening.
One name that IMPACT was going to be able to bring in is the former Bronson Reed. In fact, Fightful was told by IMPACT sources that he was actually booked, then unbooked from the show, though reasons weren't given as to why that happened.
