Even though being a (storyline) family relation of then TNA/IMPACT Wrestling owner, Dixie Carter, EC3 was not immune from competing in Ultimate X.

After being released by WWE in 2013, Ethan Carter III saw his popularity and character grow after signing for IMPACT Wrestling, becoming a two-time TNA World Heavyweight Champion during his tenure.

It was in March 2015 where he competed in his one-and-only Ultimate X match for the vacant TNA World Tag Team Championship on an episode of IMPACT Wrestling.

He teamed up with Bram to take on Matt and Jeff Hardy, the Beat Down Clan which consisted of Kenny King and Low Ki, and the team of Bobby Roode and Austin Aries.

Even though it was a losing effort and wasn't in the top one percent, it once again showed that the big guy physique worked well in Ultimate X, and was not just exclusive for the high flyers of IMPACT Wrestling's X-Division.

EC3 exited IMPACT Wrestling and returned to WWE in 2018. He was then released in 2020, before returning to IMPACT Wrestling for a short stint.
