Former IMPACT World Champion Rich Swann has signed a new two-year contract extension with the company.
The announcement was made during an interview Swann had with Chris Van Vliet, who broke the news on his Twitter account.
During the interview, Swann said:
“I’ve signed a two-year deal with IMPACT Wrestling. They have done nothing but treat me with the utmost respect. It’s been a place to where I’ve been able to grow, I’ve been able to watch other competitors grow and I’ve been able to watch the company grow into a spot to where it should be.
“Right now, there is so much of everything in all forms of entertainment. Wrestling, right now, is prospering. AEW is doing great, WWE has turned around and doing great. IMPACT Wrestling, the experience I’ve had, ever since I started in 2018, has been nothing but love, nothing but proposing and watching the company grow into what it is today.
“To be part of that and helping that after all the years of people saying, ‘IMPACT is going to die, TNA is dead,’ to be part of that and helping the company to where it is today, that makes me feel good and lets me know that I’m doing something right in this industry.”
Continuing on, Swann was asked about what his goals are in 2023 in the company, to which he said:
“I want to become a Grand Slam Champion in IMPACT Wrestling.
“Of course, I’d like to become World Champion again. I would love to find a tag team partner, get these tag team titles, scratch that off my list, I’d love to have Willie Mack by my side, that’s my partner. Willie Mack or Ricochet, those are my two guys.
“To have that, that would be the ultimate. That would put me up there with guys like AJ Styles, Sting, Booker, Kurt Angle, Samoa Joe. That would put me up there on that list.”
