It was announced yesterday that Anthem Sports & Entertainment has hired Randy Brown as Senior Vice President of Distribution and Peter Cohen at Senior Vice President, Programming Strategy & Content Development. Both had been working as strategic advisors for the company. Brown had previously worked with ESPN, among other companies. Cohen has worked for HBO, MTV and Much Music in the past.
For those who have asked why Impact didn't immediately shift over to AXS TV, we are told that they are finishing commitments to the Pursuit Channel. AXS TV's social media is already heavily pushing Impact's forthcoming debut.

Fightful has learned of people seeing that ad on multiple television providers with Optimum and Verizon Fios being among those listed. The commercial wasn't aired nationally, but it did air locally in markets such as New York, Philadelphia, Dallas, Detroit, Tampa and more.
