"Honestly, I donā€™t know about any of the past history of Impact, but ever since I arrived to work in Impact, Iā€™ve had help from Scott Dā€™Amore, Konnan, Sonjay [Dutt] and all the people that are working outside the ring, behind the scenes...Ā I think when you have professionals handling this kind of stuff, you start to see some results. We saw those results in Lucha Underground with our writer [Chris DeJoseph] and his team. Now in Impact, weā€™re seeing that with Scott Dā€™Amore, Konnan, Sonjay Dutt, all those guys. I think they each done a tremendous job and ever since I arrive in Impact, the truth is, Iā€™ve seen important growth within the company and I think weā€™re going to reach even higher levels of success. Every time, we see new wrestlers come into the roster and leave their mark and contributions and I consider myself one of those wrestlers that is coming in to contribute to the overall brand," Pentagon said.Ā 

Pentagon, who debuted withĀ Impact WrestlingĀ on a specialĀ "Impact Wrestling vs.Ā Lucha Underground"Ā event at WrestleConĀ earlier this year,Ā said he still isn't signed to Impact and instead only working certain datšŸ§øes, but added that he loves wrestling for Impact and would continue wrestle for them for however long that tš’†™he fans want him to wrestle there.

"Iā€™ll stay in Impact so long as the fans want me to stay here. The fans are the ones in charge and decide that. If they keep wanting me to work there, then Iā€™ll gladly keep working for Impact," Pentagon said.

Pentagon ended up winning the Impact World Championship shortly after his debut for the company and nošŸŒœw is in a marquee feud against Sami Callihan with the two fighting in a hair vs. mask match at ImpacšŸ’ƒt's Slammiversary show.
