Tommy Dreamer Heaps Praise On Josh Alexander Ahead Of Impact Rebellion

On March 24, it was announced that the longest reigning Impact World Champion Josh Alexander had relinquished the title due to him suffering a triceps tear that required surgery. Alexander’s historic reign ended at 335 days.

Hardcore legend Tommy Dreamer is of the opinion that Alexander has played a key role in re-establishing Impact Wrestling and weighed in on the former champion’s work and injury.

On Ad Free Shows, Dreamer discussed Alexander’s Impact Wrestling career in detail, including his nearly year-long Impact World Title reign.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On Alexander’s work in Impact: “If you think about the greatness of Josh Alexander, besides his unprecedented title run, there’s an old saying in wrestling – get one person over and then another person will follow. This year alone, from Hard to Kill… we’re coming up on April, four of their shows have all sold out. And they’ve all been advertised [with] really two main stories, a Josh Alexander story and a Mickie James story.”

On Alexander’s injury: “It sucks that this happened for him because he would have just kept on rolling. The business that they’re doing is different, but Roman Reigns [is coming up on] 1,000 days [and] I don’t know who could’ve beaten Josh Alexander. A tricep injury is the one that beat Josh Alexander.”
