More On Don Callis Exiting Impact Position, Plans Going Forward

UPDATE: More details are available on Don Callis’ reported exit from his EVP role at Impact Wrestling. According to PWInsider, Callis officially exited his position and duties with Impact last month. The site notes that Callis has slowly been ramping down his responsibilities at Impact dating back to last year, and officially left his creative position last month.

With Callis no longer on the creative team, the core team is Scott D’Amore, Tommy Dreamer, Jimmy Jacobs and RD Evans. There are no plans to replace Callis ion the creative team. Callis and Impact remain on good terms and there was no drama to the exit.

Callis will continue to appear as Kenny Omega and The Good Brothers’ manager on Impact, and there is an expectation that Callis will eventually end up with AEW full-time, though there is no timetable for that.

ORIGINAL: As previously reported, Don Callis is rumored to have been removed from his role as Impact Wrestling EVP and likely won’t be in power in the company for much longer. Fightful Select reported another update on the situation today.

Per the report, Don Callis is no longer an executive in any capacity with Impact Wrestling and Anthem Sports & Entertainment. However, he is reportedly expected to stay on in an onscreen capacity alongside Kenny Omega wherever he appears.

Omega and Callis were only at the first day of the most recent Impact TV tapings. They filmed their content and were not present for the subsequent three days of tapings. Talent who Fightful spoke to said the move wasn’t a surprise, and they thought Scott D’Amore led things well since the beginning.
