Brian Myers will be remaining with IMPACT Wrestling through 2023 as the star confirmed he has signed a contract extension with the company.
Myers spoke with Sports Illustrated’s Justin Barrasso and confirmed that his IMPACT deal was extended. Myers indicated it was an easy decision for him to remain with IMPACT.
“This was an easy decision for me. It’s a place where my talent is going to get the most opportunity. That’s what is important to me.”
Myers indicated it is his one of his goals is to bring talent from his Create A Pro Wrestling School, which is one of the top schools in the country, with him to IMPACT Wrestling.
“One of my goals for 2023 is to get a Create A Pro talent with me at Impact Wrestling,” says Myers. “[AEW owner] Tony Khan has scooped up every single one so far, but I’d like to get to the point where there is a Create A Pro talent in every promotion, starting with Impact.”
Myers, who currently teams with Matt Cardona as The Major Players, discussed the thriving IMPACT Wrestling tag team division plus the importance of him and Cardona becoming IMPACT Tag Team Champions.
“The Impact tag scene is pretty loaded right now,” says Myers. “Matt and I, we are very eager to get in there with those guys. And Matt is incredible, especially the way he recovered from a torn bicep. The wrestling world didn’t really give him his due while he was out with his injury, but he still didn’t miss a booking. That goes to show the kind of performer Matt Cardona is. And the most important thing for us is to become Impact Wrestling tag team champions.”
Myers also indicated that another one of his goals is to become the IMPACT Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion.
“Hands down, my goal is to become the Impact Wrestling world heavyweight champion,” says Myers. “I’ve been an absolute workhorse for Impact Wrestling, and I truly believe this is my time. I have my eyes set on Josh Alexander. We’ve been wrestling for years, but this is our chance to do it on Impact’s grandest stage. I am ultimately going to be everything Impact wishes he was. I’m the complete package, and I’m going to prove that.”
Brian Myers and Matt Cardona have an opportunity to become the IMPACT Wrestling Tag Team Champions on January 13th as they will participate in a four way elimination tag team match for the belts at the Hard To Kill PPV.
