Major name headed to IMPACT

PWInsider reported that Trinity Fatu, aka Naomi is slated to join IMPACT Wrestling.

Fightful can confirm the two sides have been in discussions. Trinity has been backstage at NJPW, GCW, and ROH shows in recent months. At one point, WWE felt confident they'd land her again. However, they've made no main roster hires in 2023.

Great for Impact and her. Impact isn’t a huge stage but the have the best women’s division and it’ll be a chance for her to shine individually

She is a great signing for Impact.

Colin Mathie

I’m surprised AEW didn’t try to land her she’s a big name with a lot of support behind her after her walkout last year. I get Mercedes is a bigger name but landing Trinity would of been big for them & brought more eyes. With that being said Impact have always been the best North American promotion for treating woman wrestling well so good for then & if Trinity is happy good for her

Matt Hennessy

She's an asset all around. Her booking has rarely served her, and yet she's had incredible fan support – especially from kids and women – through her glow gimmick and Total Divas respectively. She's always brought incredible athleticism. On top of that, no one is hiring her to drop the ball. Trinity is a big get for Impact with a loyal fan following, and I think the Impact team is solid enough not to squander the opportunity and play to her strengths.

She's popular but probably not that big a name to command big money.

Matthew Bamford

Or she looked at how they're still treating the women's division and wasn't interested.

Matthew Bamford

A positive take though, so I don’t sound like I’m here to just be negative. This will give her an opportunity to knock ring rust off as well as learn and grow with a locker room with a lot of women who actually wrestle and in a company that utilizes them more.

Pretty sure the article said the exact opposite. They did but, even if she wanted to go, they aren't hiring anyone at the moment

Impact has a lot of pretty good women’s wrestlers. It won’t be long, in my opinion, before her flaws show and people realize why no one really cared while she was with WWE until she made headlines for walking out.

With the hiring freeze I'm not shocked, they have a great women's division and I can see her signing a 6 month deal, even 8 and be back next year after the mergers completed.

That's awesome for Impact and they do work with NJPW now. So it's a win for both of them. It is another time of how does Impact have the budget they have? LOL

lost oportunity for wwe, good for impact

e d

So the fed didn’t want her aye

Great news that she's continuing to wrestle. I hope Trinity will shine brightly outside of the confines of sports entertainment.

Rincewind

She'll be a breath of fresh air. Hope they get the belt on her sooner rather than later.

Vicki Langteau

Is anything really good for Impact they are the definition of treading water.

Joel Allison

Along with Aldis, they're fucking knocking it out of the park

Marshall Enloe

Good for her and Impact! Hopefully she’ll bring a bunch more eyes to their woman’s division!

Kevin Wilkes.

Oh damn good for impact!!

Ty Jans

My exact thought. I bet AEW wanted her to sign for 2 or 3 year deal. Impact likes to do 1 year deals with 6 month opt out.

Keith Kripke

Need her vs Grace if she resigns

Matt Payne

Massive Signing for IMPACT! I was really AEW signed her, she's be a main eventer wherever she goes

Massive W for Impact Wrestling ✨️

Kyle Pribila

Good for her, Impact does have one of the strongest women's divisions right now

Fluffy Panda

Huge W for Impact

Dobby_TheBrain

This just tells me it’s a temp move so she can return to WWE when they start to rehire again. Reminds me of Mia Yim.

Niners94

Wow

Doreen Ford

Good for her.
