Pro wrestling has turned into an intricate net, where talents appear on other promotions while they enjoy their status as a free agent. This does add to the storytelling aspect and keeps things open for the future. Despite having occasional appearances on AEW, Edge‘s former stablemate Brian Myers aka Curt Hawkins renewed his contract with TNA/Impact.

Edge’s former tag team partner won’t be joining him at AEW

As reported first by Sports Insider, Myers has renewed his contract with TNA/Impact Wrestling. However, it is not going to be a multi-year deal. Instead, his contract is going to extend through the year of 2024. Speaking with the magazine, he said that it had to be one of the easiest decisions of his career. “The past three-and-a-half years, it’s been a perfect fit. I get to be the best version of myself while being a TNA Wrestling star, so this decision was pretty easy for me.” The star will soon be celebrating his 20th anniversary in the industry.

Myers has stated that working with Impact Wrestling has helped him through his singles career. He credited most of his success at Impact to his relationship with the showrunner of the promotion, Scott D’Amore. “He got to see me as a performer up close, so there was a mutual respect. And I grew up watching him. The respect, that’s the foundation of our relationship.” Myers further added that they both can be a bit stubborn at times, but eventually, they find a way out of it.

But it’s not just his relationship with the officials at Impact. He is also on good terms with AEW’s Talent Development personnel, Pat Buck. Not many fans might know this, but the two run a pro wrestling school down in Long Island. The Create Pro School started back in 2015 to train new talents. However, his time with Edge will be something fans will fondly remember.

Back in Armageddon in 2007, The Major Brothers which consisted of Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder, dressed up as Edge and entered the arena. They even took beatings on Edge’s behalf and it was at this moment, that the tag team turned heel. They founded the stable called La Familia which consisted of the two along with The Rated R Superstar and his lover SamckDown’s GM, Vickie Guerrero. The stable then garnered the name: The R-Rated Entourage.

For me pro wrestling has two things that I like the most, storytelling and fighting. Let?s just say movies are failing to keep me entertained in those departments. I grew up watching WWF and not WWE and any hardcore fan will agree that the two are not the same, but I love both iterations.
