IMPACT Wrestling’s Moose On This Year’s “Hard To Kill,” Future Career Plans, Television & More

Keeping up 2021 strong, IMPACT Wrestling made headlines again with October 2021’s Bound For Glory. Next up pay-per-view events-wise for IMPACT is Hard To Kill on January 8, 2022, which will take place at The Factory in Deep Ellum, Texas. Meanwhile, IMPACT Wrestling itself — which airs on Thursday nights at 8:00 PM EST / 7:00 PM CST, as preceded by the Before The Impact program and followed by the IMPACT In 60 program — is regularly the highest-rated show on the AXS TV network.

One of the mainstay stars of IMPACT Wrestling since 2016 has been Moose, an NFL veteran who was voted professional wrestling’s 2015 “Rookie Of The Year” by Pro Wrestling Illustrated. Moose has since become a 2-time IMPACT Grand Championship holder and is the current World Heavyweight Champion. Among the former world champions Moose has defeated within IMPACT are Ken Shamrock, Rob Van Dam, EC3, Tommy Dreamer, Eddie Edwards and Rhino. At Hard To Kill, Moose will be in a three-way fight against Matt Cardona and W. Morrissey, who both spoke with The Hype in 2021.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Moose again via Zoom on December 8, 2021, as embedded below. We discussed career goals, future plans in and out of IMPACT and more within our chat.
