In a new report from Sporting News, former heavyweight champion Rob Van Dam has signed a new deal with IMPACT Wrestling.

This comes one day before IMPACT’s United We Stand event from Rahway New Jersey, where the ECW legend will be teaming up with Sabu to face Pentagon Jr. and Fenix for the IMPACT tag team championship.

While the length of RVD’s deal has not been determined, it has been revealed that he will not be available for IMPACT’s Rebellion pay per view in April.
