To be able to combine that with, I have a lot of history here, that's exciting. The roster at IMPACT is world-class. There is so much discussion all the time about who is coming and going at WWE and AEW, that's justifiable. In the meantime, you look at IMPACT's roster, that's a murders row. I'm looking at it like; finally, I have some real competition and I'm looking around like, 'I want to mix it up with him, I want to get in there with him, me and him would be money.' Take your pick. Make no mistake, if I'm coming in, I don't want to waste any time, I'm coming after the strap," said Aldis.
