IMPACT Wrestling star Moose has seen a fair amount of success since joining the professional wrestling world.
The former football player comes off an unsuccessful title bid against Austin Aries at last week’s IMPACT Slammiversary pay-per-view (PPV). Recently, Moose spoke with Wrestling Inc. to talk about the transition from football to wrestling.
Moose (real name Quinn Ojinnaka) is a former NFL offensive lineman that has played for teams such as the Atlanta Falcons, New England Patriots, St. Louis Rams and Indianapolis Colts.
The lifelong professional wrestling fan admitted that the transition actually wasn’t that hard:
“Honestly it wasn’t hard at all,” Moose said. “When you have a passion to do something, everything that comes along that journey is easy. So I had a strong passion to become a professional wrestler so everything came easy.”
Moose also talks about hating his in-ring name at first and his favorite era of professional wrestling. Read the full interview here.
