Killer Kelly re-signs new multi-year contract with Impact Wrestling
On the day she will make her official return to Impact Wrestling, it was learned that Killer Kelly has re-signed a new multi-year deal with the company.
She revealed the news while on the Battleground Podcast, saying she has actually been under a contract with Impact for the last two years. The two sides began negotiating after she debuted for them in late-2020. The Portugal native would have returned sooner, but her work visa wasn’t approved until this past May.
On the July 7th edition of Impact, a new Kelly vignette was unveiled and that she was coming soon. She makes her official in-ring return on Thursday’s show in a match taped nearly two weeks ago against Tiffany Nieves.
Going into Thursday, she has just two Impact matches under her belt, last teaming with Renee Michelle in a losing effort in the Knockouts Tag Team title tournament in 2020.
She wrestled just three indie matches in 2021 and in October, she announced she was taking the rest of the year off to address health issues. The Nieves match is her only action of the year thus far.
