Zicky Dice has a new home promotion in IMPACT Wrestling.
According to a report from Fightful Select, Zicky Dice has signed a multi-year contract with IMPACT Wrestling. Dice, a former NWA Television Champion, worked this week’s IMPACT Wrestling tapings in Nashville, appearing in a tag team match with Manny Lemons.
Dice initially asked for his release from the National Wrestling Alliance in June 2020, but a clause in his deal kept him under contract through the end of the year. Dice started his own Twitch channel to build his brand and made his AEW debut in June of this year in a singles match against Lance Archer, but did not compete again for the promotion.
In addition to working the tag team match with Lemons, it was also noted by Fightful that Zicky will “initially” be part of a stable with Brian Myers and Sam Beale. You can check out the result of that match, as well as full spoilers for the August 17 taping at this link.

Zicky Dice spoke with WrestleZone’s Dominic DeAngelo in June about his future in wrestling, and he said he was only getting started. Dice had previously expressed his interest in signing with AEW, but explained that he was doing whatever it takes to prove he’s earned
“There are many sides to the die and not everyone has seen those sides just yet,” he said. “‘Outlandish’ Zicky Dice has yet to spread his wings. If you think about it, I didn’t get a full title run over at NWA. I didn’t get to walk out with my championship or have I think a full complete television run and unlike everyone else, the pandemic actually was a blessing in disguise for ‘Outlandish’ Zicky Dice. It helped me take the brand to the next level partnering up with Twitch and staying creative and really pushing the limits in trying to have that creative outlet.”
With Twitch, Dice has been unprecedented as how a wrestler promotes themselves and creating a base on a game streaming platform without doing a whole lot of video gaming has been an innovative way of cultivating creativity.
“This isn’t the last you’ve seen of ‘Outlandish’ Zicky Dice. The best is yet to come, I’ll tell you that. I just like staying creative. I like to set a new bar. There is nobody on the independent level doing what we’re doing here. I’ll tell you that. I strive to have the best production and the best everything and really challenging everyone else to push their limits a bit and I take pride in that and after releasing that video it’s like, ‘Okay, whatever we do next has to be better,’ everything’s gotta be better so just keep challenging ourselves and that’s how we got there.”
