Report: Ace Steel to work as producer at Impact Bound for Glory

Ace Steel is reportedly set to work Bound for Glory as a producer.

PWInsider reported on Friday night that Steel was in Chicago for Saturday’s Bound for Glory pay-per-view event, where he will be receiving a tryout as a producer. According to the report, Impact wanted Steel as a producer after he was fired from AEW last year before he was re-hired earlier this year when CM Punk returned to the company.

“One source categorized Steel as having a tryout as a Producer this weekend, noting that Impact Wrestling had wanted to bring him in before he returned to work for AEW in a remote position,” PWInsider wrote. “Now that Steel is again free and clear of his AEW contract, we are told Impact once again reached out and offered the same opportunity.”

Steel was released by AEW last month shortly after Punk was fired from AEW. Punk had gotten into a backstage altercation with Jack Perry during AEW’s All In event back in late August, and his contracts with the company were terminated with cause following an investigation.

Steel had previously made appearances in Impact Wrestling back in 2002 as a wrestler, appearing on their weekly pay-per-view events.
