Through 2021 we have seen an interesting relationship when it comes to Impact and AEW. At times it looked like it was heading in one direction, then suddenly it felt as though it was veering into another. Currently however, everything seems to have gone motionless when it comes to Impact and AEW.
If this is to be the (temporary) end of the relationship, then it’s worth looking into everything that we’ve seen from both companies up to this point. Sadly we wont be able to look too much at wrestlers who entered into AEW from Impact Wrestling as it was only really the Good Brothers, however we did have quite a few AEW wrestlers cross the line, so who made the best Impact coming over from AEW?
5. Christopher Daniels
After 7 years away from Impact Wrestling, The Fallen Angel made his return to the company that many will always call his home. Daniels was a pioneer of the X Division back when it was created, he also really helped cement the Tag team Division too with Triple X (through their feuds against AMW). He is someone who in the background has done far more for the company than people actually realise.
Now a key figure (again behind the scenes) in AEW, Daniels has shown how vital he can be to any company he walks into. He was also one of the first names that many Impact fans wanted to see make the jump when The Forbidden Door was opened. Eventually we saw him bridge the gap and it was a beautifully familiar sight to see.
We had a main event of Ace Austin with Fultion vs Josh Alexander. After the match Ace and Fulton beat down Josh and Christian Cage (who had come down to help), then The Fallen Angel came down to make the save, this got a great reaction and lead to a match the following week. Sadly it didn’t really lead to anything more. There were teases that Daniels would go for the World Title, however we never saw that story follow on. It felt there was a lot more to get from this return, but it was a nice Easter egg none the less.
