Definitely. Now, the opposite end of the scale I think this goes to. I need to ask. I always pride myself on being transparent. Full disclosure, I put out an article last month about The Good Brothers signing with IMPACT - so when the news came out making it official, I was obviously personally delighted - but that tweet has gone on to become the best performing tweet in the company's history. That's an instant impact if there ever was one. What do The Good Brothers bring to IMPACT Wrestling?

Obviously, they bring a lot of hype, they bring a lot of excitement. The fact that it was announced the night before Slam and it picked up so much momentum leading up to Slammiversary itself.

Obviously they are able to bring new eyes and bring some fans that may be they had that weren't watching IMPACT, they get to bring that in so it's a whole different level where we are going to be able to show ourselves and show what we can do to people who may not have watched in a while or maybe haven't watched IMPACT at all, forever, so for them to bring a new fan base in, that's an amazing thing.

Like you said, you can see the, quote unquote, impact that they've had already from so for them to come in and create this momentum and create a new buzz, that's just a good thing for everybody involved.


A cheeky one here. We know a lot of free agents have come aboard.

I know there's not a lot left out there after the amount that IMPACT seem to have picked up. Are there any others you'd like to see join the brand?

You know, it's tough because, like you said, there's been so much change and so many new faces right now. I feel like if the offices at IMPACT feel like there is someone out there who deserves a shot, I would love them to come in - whether it's from another company or they've been independent wrestlers for so long. I feel like we are in a great place right now. We don't need something right now but if someone can come in and make a difference, I say by all means, let's sign them and see what they can.
