Former Chairwoman of TNA/IMPACT Wrestling, Dixie Carter, has recently applauded Christian Cage for his IMPACT World Championship victory over Kenny Omega in the debut episode of AEW Rampage.
On Twitter, Carter took a trip down memory lane and noted that she hated losing Christian to WWE back in the day. The former TNA president expressed her joy over his latest world title win and gave props to AEW's higher-ups for showcasing the cross-promotional match.
"This makes me very happy. I will never forget how special it was when @Christian4Peeps 1st became @IMPACTWRESTLING World Champ. I always hated losing him to @wwe. Welcome home Christian & massive props to @AEW for allowing these type of matches to happen. #makingwrestlingfunagain," Dixie Carter stated.
