IMPACT Wrestling star Sami Callihan was recently interviewed by WrestleZone to talk about several professional wrestling topics. Of course, Callihan was asked about tonight’s All In pay-per-view (PPV). The event is a milestone for indy professional wrestling. Cody and The Young Bucks self-funded the event and were able to sell out the Sears Centre in Chicago.
Callihan praised the venture itself and is in awe of how many fans are coming out for a non-WrestleMania event. He noted that if All In failed, it would be terrible for the professional wrestling industry overall:
“This is a great venture, this is a great avenue, this kind of— I don’t even know what to say about this mass of people coming to a non-WrestleMania weekend event.
“If All In would’ve failed, this would’ve hurt not only independent wrestling but professional wrestling overall It would’ve proven that WWE has this monopoly.”
Callihan is currently working for a lot of top promotions, such as IMPACT Wrestling and Lucha Underground. The Lucha Underground Trios Champion said he likes to stay busy:
“I worked New Japan Pro Wrestling earlier this year. I like the money. You have to work while you’re hot. Complacency is dead for me.”
