“Speedball” Mike Bailey Comments on His Signing with Impact Wrestling

A recent episode of Fightful’s The Spottlight podcast had “Speedball” Mike Bailey as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Bailey’s thoughts on his recent signing with Impact Wrestling.

“I feel like it’s a very fair relationship. I don’t think there’s any sort of force behind them. They could put me in any position and I would still stand out in the same way I am doing right now. I’m extremely grateful for the opportunities I’m given, but I can’t imagine where they could possibly put me, who they could possibly have me wrestle that it wouldn’t be a notable performance. Because, again, the IMPACT roster is so stacked and there’s so much happening right now. I am extremely confident in my ability to deliver consistently exciting performances. I think it’s a mutually beneficial relationship. I feel like it’s only fair and I will only keep giving it my all.”
