Impact Wrestling’s new play-by-play voice is Tom Hannifan, who went by the name of Tom Phillips in WWE. Renee Paquette revealed the news while promoting his appearance on her podcast next Tuesday.
Powell’s POV: Matt Striker announced his departure from the company in a since deleted tweet. Hannifan is expected to team with color commentator D-Lo Brown as the top Impact broadcast team.

Tom Hannifan is absolute garbage. But what do you expect when you are trained by Michael Cole?! Was Scott Hudson not available?
