#5 Airing Impact footage on WWE Network Originals
WWE has struck a deal with Impact through which they can air Impact footage and reference in their WWE Network originals. It had all started with an episode of 'Table for 3', in which Shane McMahon, Kurt Angle, and AJ Styles discussed their careers. In that episode, AJ Styles and Kurt Angle's matches from the TNA were aired.
The Anthem in response said:
"IMPACT Wrestling collaborated with WWE on the project and sub-licensed the footage to them for use in their original productions. Accordingly, WWE issued a courtesy for GWN when the footage airs.”
The partnership hadn't finished there as Impact Wrestling sub-licensed footages of the Ultimate Deletion and Jeff Hardy's infamous match against Sting at Victory Road 2011 to the WWE for their WWE 24 documentary.
These footages were extremely important. You cannot discuss the legendary careers of AJ Styles and Kurt Angle without referencing their work in the TNA. Similarly, the addiction battles which the Hardy brothers fought would have been fragmentary if you excluded their work in the rival promotion. It is a win-win situation for both of them as the superstars' career are glorified, and the casual but loyal WWE audience is introduced to TNA.
