During the Impact Wrestling Hard To Kill pre-show, Madison Rayne announced her retirement from Impact Wrestling.
News about her exit broke a month ago when Dave Meltzer reported in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that she had plans to leave the company for a full-time job outside of the wrestling business.
Her husband, Josh Mathews, remains with the company and will work behind-the-scenes. Moving forward, the broadcast team will consist of Matt Striker and D’Lo Brown.
We send our best wishes to Rayne on her future outside of the wrestling business.
