Could we see WOW (Women of Wrestling), New Japan Pro Wrestling, and Impact Wrestling all on the same network?
According to a new report by
Voices of Wrestling, Impact Wrestling is in serious talks with AXS TV; The report makes it clear that the deal isn't official just yet, but the two sides are very close to coming to an agreement. It’s been noted that Impact officials aren’t too pleased with the Pursuit channel at the moment.
Both Impact and Pursuit are owned by Anthem, but Pursuit has made numerous embarrassing blunders over the last several weeks. In addition to the errors made by the Pursuit channel, the company’s viewership has vastly dropped since moving to the top-tier premium channel that's in considerably less homes than Destination America, Pop TV, and Spike TV.
The promotion is arguably one of the best wrestling shows out there and if Impact is able to get this deal with AXS TV, hopefully fans will give the company one more chance and see the great action and content they have to offer.
