Impact Officials Not Happy With Rockstar Spud’s WWE Jump

Impact Wrestling officials aren’t too pleased that Rockstar Spud is moving over to WWE. Spud is expected to debut with the company on Raw next week, and the WON reports that Impact’s higher-ups were not happy that he signed with Spud leaving Impact and then joining WWE.

According to the site, Impact spent a quite a bit of money to help with visa issues that were preventing Spud from working in the US, to the tune of $20,000. Two weeks after the issues were sorted out, he asked for his release from Impact. That said, the initial report from early November blames the visa issues on an error in Spud’s paperwork that was made by the company “during the Dixie Carter era.”

Spud is expected to get a big spot on 205 Live alongside Hideo Itami, who is also set to debut next week.
