Fightful has learned some more in regards to Chelsea Green joining IMPACT Wrestling. We're told that her deal to come in was worked out around the same time her plans to go to Ring of Honor came together. As of now there has been no full-time contract signed between Chelsea Green, ROH or IMPACT Wrestling and we're told that both companies was aware she'd be working for each other. As mentioned, in recent weeks Fightful has spoken to people in power of several companies that put over how well each company had been working together, saying the synergy has never been better.
Thunder Rosa appeared at IMPACT Wrestling Slammiversary to take on Deonna Purrazzo as her mystery opponent, and there's a lot that went into it. We're told that the deal was done about a month ahead of time, and that this won't be the end of NWA doing some work with IMPACT Wrestling. As mentioned prior, IMPACT let Kylie Rae out of her deal to pursue interests in NWA, and IMPACT sources had put over the working relationship they were maintaining with other companies. To clear up any confusion, Thunder Rosa is still expected to work AEW shows and remains under NWA contract through the end of 2021.
Jay White was a closely guarded secret even to those in the company. Internal run sheets only had a pull apart brawl listed as closing the show.
