Joey Ryan had reportedly turned down offers from WWE and AEW in order to remain on the independent circuit. However, it seems he has finally signed a contract with another promotion.
According to a report by SoCal Uncensored, Joey Ryan has signed a contract with Impact Wrestling. Ryan himself confirmed the news and provided an explanation for his signing.
It made the most sense. @IMPACTWRESTLING has been the most consistent wrestling program on TV for the past 2 years, I get to keep all of my indie dates and best of all, they let me be me.
The deal is said to be a multi-year deal and no other details have been provided. It will be interesting to see how Joey Ryan is booked in the promotion.
