Impact Wrestling to simulcast weekly on Twitch
Impact Wrestling has announced another way to watch their weekly television.
During Sunday night’s Homecoming pay-per-view, it was announced that Impact will be airing on both the Pursuit Channel and Twitch on Fridays at 10 p.m. Eastern time going forward. The simulcast will begin this Friday (January 11).
Impact is moving from Thursday to Friday nights starting this week, with the show staying in its later time slot and beginning at 10 p.m. Eastern. The time slot change went into effect in October.
Last week’s go-home show for Homecoming was the final episode of Impact on Pop TV. It was announced last month that Impact would be moving to the Pursuit Channel on television in the United States. Pursuit is a hunting/outdoors themed channel that Impact’s parent company has a minority investment in.
Impact’s Twitch channel launched in January 2018 and streams past and new content.
The first episode of Impact as part of the simulcast on Pursuit and Twitch will feature the fallout from Homecoming.
