TNA: Dirty Dango Signs New Contract, TNA Reveals New World Title Belt, Steve Maclin on His Impact/TNA Career

Dirty Dango Signs New Contract Extension with TNA

A recent episode of the Paltrocast With Darren Paltrowitz podcast featured Dirty Dango as the guest. One of the topics discussed included Dango revealing that he recently signed a new contract with TNA Wrestling to remain in the company for the foreseeable future.

“I signed a year deal in January of 2023, I think it was. So, about a year ago I signed a year deal and then I just signed another.”

Dango also gave his thoughts about the future of his wrestling career.

“I kind of told myself I’d wrestle until 40 and then I was going to probably ease up a bit but like I tell everybody, it’s what I’ve done my whole life. I don’t know how to not be a wrestler.

Just being around TNA has made me really fall back in love with wrestling.”

Dango has been working for Impact/TNA since October of 2022.

Steve Maclin Praises TNA Wrestling For Allowing Him to Show He Can Be a Top Guy

Fightful held a recent interview with Steve Maclin. One of the topics discussed included Maclin’s thoughts about his career in Impact/TNA Wrestling and praising the company for allowing him to show that he can be a top guy in a wrestling company.

“As soon as I got to IMPACT, I got to build myself and I’m always for longevity. This is not a sprint in this business, it’s a marathon. So to be able to build that equity and show the world the kind of person that I can be in the ring and outside of the ring, with being able to do interviews, being able to do media, to show myself as a top guy somewhere which I’ve always seen in myself and just wanted that opportunity. Now IMPACT, I’ve shown them that and after my almost three years that I’ve been there now, it’s been a lot of fun.

Do I wish my World title reign was a lot longer? Yes. Do I regret being hurt in a match in Australia in my rematch? Yes. Things happen. But it also put me into a place now where I’ve kinda slowed down on training, how I actually act out of the ring. I’m getting older, getting wiser. My wife smartened me up a little bit. She tells me to slow down a little bit ‘cause I like to just go. That’s just me. If I’m working, I’m going. It’s fun being here at WrestleCade, just because it’s my first time here ever at a WrestleCade. I’m not a big fan of signings, so getting to do these is fine.”
