Back in June, Impact Wrestling teased several former WWE stars for their annual Slammiversary pay-per-view.

The promo showcased Doc Gallows and Karl Anderson, Mike and Maria Kanellis, Eric Young, EC3, Drake Maverick and a Bulgarian flag, which represented former WWE United States Champion Miro. The Good Brothers, Young, and EC3 ended up making their return to the promotion, with Drake Maverick being signed back to the black-and-gold brand and Miro going over to All Elite Wrestling last week.

So, why did the new AEW star turn down an offer to join Impact Wrestling?

Well, it appears that Miro simply had no interest in joining the promotion. During his latest Twitch stream, the 34-year-old revealed that he was offered a contract to sign with Impact Wrestling; however, he opted against joining the company:

“It had nothing to do with COVID. I just didn’t want to go to Impact. They were very kind, they reached out. I just needed some time.”

According to WrestleNews.com, the company made it a priority to sign the former WWE superstar as Impact officials reportedly offered him a six-figure deal for far less dates than when he was working for WWE. He was also guaranteed a run as Impact World Champion. As fans saw last week, Miro chose AEW; however, the former WWE superstar may change his tune in a year as he reportedly has a one-year contract with the company.
