Matthew Rehwoldt’s Contracts with Impact & NJPW Expired

A recent episode of the Developmentally Speaking podcast featured Matthew Rehwoldt as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Rehwoldt revealing that his contracts with Impact Wrestling and New Japan Pro Wrestling recently expired and he is currently a free agent.

“I mean, I’m trying to do a little bit of everything. I’m taking advantage of this moment. Obviously, I do commentary for IMPACT Wrestling as well as New Japan Pro-Wrestling. A couple of independents here like B.R.C.W. based out of here in Florida and a few others here and I would be remiss if I didn’t say Wrestling REVOLVER, Sami Callihan’s home promotion which is really, really cool if you haven’t checked that out. Usually runs in places like Ohio and Iowa but really badass promotion. So I do those but I am a free wheelin’, free dealin’ agent. I am not tied down anywhere so I’m also using this opportunity to explore other passions, stuff outside of wrestling.”
