A top IMPACT Wrestling talent is currently poised to hit the open market this Summer.
Fightful Select has learned that as of a few weeks ago, former TNA and IMPACT World Heavyweight Champion Moose's current contract is set to expire in June. Moose was also set to to hit free agency in the summer of 2021, but IMPACT Wrestling re-signed him.
In 2021, IMPACT wanted to lock down Moose before he could even technically field offers from other companies, and provided him with a lucrative contract extension and a heavy push as one of its top stars. Despite him not having hit free agency, Moose confirmed to Fightful during an interview last year that WWE had interest in him. We later learned that WWE's Canyon Ceman had been specifically interested in him coming in, but he's no longer with the company. One of the primary pitches to Moose was to be him jumping straight to the main roster, which didn't happen much back then. However, we're told that Vince McMahon specifically had dragged his feet on signing off on that.
We'll work to learn more about Moose's status.
