Could current IMPACT Wrestling star Moose soon be heading to NXT? That’s certainly what the powerhouse has been teasing earlier today.

Having recently confirmed that his IMPACT deal expires in June, Moose today took to Twitter to tease what his “NeXT” move could be.

I love when you all argue about what my NeXT move is !!

Similarly, the former NFL star also teased that he may end up getting involved in the main event of next weekend’s AEW Double or Nothing PPV – where AEW World Champion Kenny Omega defends the gold against PAC and Orange Cassidy.

Before his IMPACT deal expires next month, Moose has expressed his desire to capture the IMPACT World Championship that Omega currently holds. And for the two-time Grand Champion, he gets his shot to do just that when he faces the Best Bout Machine for the IMPACT Title at the company's Against All Odds show on 12 June.

After leaving his football career behind, the real-life Quinn Ojinnaka worked for the likes of Dragon Gate USA, Ring of Honor and Global Force Wrestling before officially signing with what was then TNA Wrestling in 2016. In the years since then, Moose has gone on to cement himself as one of the biggest and best names on the IMPACT roster.
