5 most surprising IMPACT signings in 2020

#3 It's all about #Heath4IMPACT right now, yeah baby

Heath's extremely popular "Free Agent" storyline with WWE has found new legs in IMPACT.

Sometimes in professional wrestling, it's all about the chance for performers to prove themselves. Wrestlers can only get pushed down the card so many times before they just end up losing a passion for what they do, they go through the motions, collect their paycheck and move on with their day.

Heath, the artist formally known as Heath Slater, is a perfect example of that. He's a wrestler who gave it his all throughout a WWE career that spanned over a decade. Whatever the company gave to him, he made it work. From the Nexus to 3MB, to his wildly popular "Free Agent" storyline, when Heath was given an opportunity, he took the ball and ran with it. Which made it all the more disheartening when his pushes ended prematurely over and over again.

So in April, when Heath was among the large array of talent that was let go from WWE, there seemed to be some sense of relief from the former One Man Band. He took this opportunity as his chance to do work somewhere else that would allow his creativity to shine.

Enter IMPACT Wrestling, as Heath would make his debut with the company over the Summer at Slammiversary. And once again, he did a take on arguably his most popular WWE storyline, "the free agent."

Seeing Heath and Rhino together again should be enough to put a smile on any wrestling fan's face, but Heath and IMPACT have told such an incredible story over the last several months that fans are absolutely caught up in the #Heath4IMPACT campaign. This Saturday a new chapter will begin for Heath in IMPACT and it will be exciting to see what happens next.
