John Skyler has signed a new deal with Impact Wrestling.
Skyler appeared on The Angle Podcast this week and revealed that he has signed a new multi-year contract with Impact, as seen below. Skyler had quietly left the company earlier this year when his contract expired.
“I’m excited to be back with Impact Wrestling. Right off the top of my head the Impact talent roster. There’s so many people up and down the show and roster that I haven’t had the chance to wrestle yet. That’s the thing that’s really appealing to me. I signed with Impact to break the perception of who John Skyler is. I’ve been this 15 year journeyman and I wanted to be taken more seriously as a threat, as a viable superstar, as someone people can see money in,” Skyler said on the podcast.
Skyler, 35, made his TNA debut in 2016, but returned to the company in 2021 as part of Impact. The contract for return expired in March of this year. Skyler’s last Impact match was a Triple Threat with Crazzy Steve and winner Ace Austin on March 6, but he returned to the promotion last month at WrestleCade for the Throwback Throwdown III tapings, where he competed as Biff Knuckles in a Triple Threat with Keaton Fox (Jason Hotch) and winner Johnny Swinger.
Skyler has also recently worked for NJPW Strong.
