We recently interviewed Josh Mathews, the lead play-by-play announcer of Impact Wrestling, and he spoke about the freedom he enjoys at the promotion, as compared to WWE. Ever since WWE went PG, they have been careful, censoring segments that may cause outrage, banning moves that may appear dangerous and as a consequence, offering a watered-down show to the fans.
Impact Wrestling is bound by fewer restrictions, and while their talent isn’t free to do as they please, they are not as shackled as WWE Superstars. Case in point, while Eric Young was known for the 'Piledriver' in his TNA days, he had to come up with a new finisher in NXT.
