Last week, reports were that WWE officials met with Scott D’Amore and Ed Nordholm from Impact Wrestling. According to a recent report from the Wrestling Observer, it was WWE who reached out to Impact for the meeting and not the other way around. Previous reports had stated it was Impact doing the pitching but that is now being refuted.
“It was WWE that requested the meeting, that Impact pitching as we reported was not correct,” Meltzer wrote. He would continue to say that reports of Impact being up for sale are not true.
“It was said that no deal of any note came out of the meeting and that while Impact has been a huge money loser for most of its existence, the bleeding money of 2017 has also been turned around this year and it’s a much more efficient business.”
While it appears not much of note came out of the meeting, the two sides appear to have a far more agreeable working relationship than ever before.
“As far as the meeting goes, really the only thing being said is that the days when the two sides were enemies are supposed to be over.”
Don Callis was not said to be in attendance during the meetings, however.
Impact Wrestling airs their second show from the Mexico City tapings later tonight.
