Austin Aries
Impact Wrestling issued the following release:
He is the new, reigning Impact World Champion after shocking the world on Impact on Feb. 1. Austin Aries walked back into The Impact Zone and, in near-record time, reclaimed the World Championship, which he last held during the summer of 2012, with a win over former Champion Eli Drake.
Aries will be the special guest on the weekly IMPACT Wrestling Media Teleconference on Thursday, February 8, starting at 2pm ET.
Aries will discuss his surprise return to IMPACT Wrestling, plus his legendary past in the company – he is a six-time and the longest-reigning X-Division Champion, a one-time World Tag Team Champion (with Bobby Roode), and has many other honors, accolades and titles, too.
Aries also will talk about life as a vegan, as he is a noted author of a popular book on the subject.
