Tommy Dreamer's in-ring career is not over yet.

At Impact Wrestling's Victory Road event on Friday night, the 52-year-old Dreamer defeated Kenny King to win the Digital Media Championship. It was a title vs. career match where Dreamer would have retired if he lost.

An assist from Heath helped Dreamer win the match. When Sheldon Jean interfered on behalf of King, the referee ejected Jean from ringside. With the referee's attention turned away, Heath ran in and dropped King with the Wake Up Call. Dreamer then hit a DDT and pinned King to win the Digital Media title.

Dreamer paid tribute to his late friend Terry Funk during the match, including wearing Funk-inspired ring gear with a Funk shirt.

The Dreamer vs. King match was set up after Emergence this August. At Emergence, King retained the Digital Media title against Johnny Swinger. King and Jean then beat down Swinger. Dreamer made his way out to protect Swinger but was attacked by King.

On Impact last week, Dreamer offered to put his career on the line for a shot against King. King mocked Dreamer for being old and taking up a spot on the roster.

Victory Road took place in Dreamer's home state of New York. In a post-match interview, Dreamer said he will defend the Digital Media title at every show he's on:
