Former TNA star Christopher Daniels recently spoke with the folks at Kayfabe Kickout about his decision to leave TNA, return to ROH and more. Below are some highlights from the interview.
On whether he saw the move coming that he would have to eventually leave TNA: “I was definitely surprised and disappointed. I knew that we (Frankie and myself) weren’t being used as a top tag-team despite being told repeatedly that we were one of the most entertaining acts on the roster, but I figured that there was an ebb and flow to it all, and once TNA signed Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards, I assumed there’d be an opportunity for us to come back into the spotlight in a feud against them. But that wasn’t the case.”
On whether sees himself in the ROH Title picture after his match with Roderick Strong at Supercard of Honor IX: “Well, I believe that as one of the first talents to work at the main event level in RoH, I can always be looked upon as a viable contender to the heavyweight title. But a lot of that depends on the future for Frankie and me as a tag team, which I feel is very positive at this point.”
On working with Alberto El Patron (Alberto Del Rio): “I was very proud that the company viewed me as a potential opponent for Alberto. I felt that it was a sign of their confidence in me as a wrestler to put me in such a high-profile match.”
