The heart of the matter
James Storm will reportedly work his last dates with Impact Wrestling next week, ergo the Impact tapings that take place after Bound For Glory.
On that note, Storm’s contract with Impact Wrestling runs out in January of next year, however, TNA-parent company Anthem are now taping several months’ worth of content; extending well beyond the expiry date of the former TNA World Heavyweight Champion’s deal.
