Eddie Edwards stated yesterday that Impact would remain his home "for the foreseeable" future. His current deal expires in February.
Alberto el Patron's deal expires in March, but given that he is locked in to headline the 4/22 Redemption PPV, it would appear the two sides have come to terms on some sort of extension. Impact sources would not confirm that Patron has signed a new contract.
Impact will be filming a Moose vs. Alberto el Patron bout taking place this weekend for Future Stars of Wrestling in Las Vegas.
Bobby Lashley has been pulled from all scheduled Impact-related appearances. He is free and clear to go anywhere he wants as of 2/1. We have heard his next move is to concentrate on MMA fights, but one would think WWE would be interested.
Impact Wrestling promised that next week's episode would kick off a "new era" for the company:
Next week is the beginning of a new era but one thing will remain constant. Every single week we're looking to present the very best wrestling show we can and our crew and our immensely talented roster give you everything. Thanks for watching and we'll see you next week. #Genesis
