Eli Drake Re-Signs With Impact Wrestling

Eli Drake is staying with Impact Wrestling.

The promotion made the news official in a post shared on their official Twitter account on Monday. Impact wrote the following:

“BREAKING NEWS: We’re delighted to announce that dummies will be named and shamed long into the future as @TheEliDrake has signed a contract extension with IMPACT Wrestling.”

Dave Meltzer reported earlier this month in an edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Drake had signed another short-term contract extension, which will keep him with Impact Wrestling through July 31st.

A few months ago, the belief was that if Drake didn’t sign a new deal with Impact then he could be headed to the WWE. With a short extension of his contract, the two sides could be working on a longer deal or Drake will finish up his commitments with Impact through the summer. Time will tell how this plays out.
