Impact Wrestling star Moose recently did an interview with Sporting News to promote his upcoming Tag Team match alongside NFL running back DeAngelo Williams to take on Chris Adonis and Eli Drake at this weekend’s (Sun. July 2, 2017) Slammiversary XV pay-per-view (PPV). You can check out the highlights here:
Jeff Jarrett being back at the helm of Impact Wrestling:
“I love being part of Impact Wrestling and especially love that Jeff Jarrett is back with the company,” said Moose. “He’s our leader. It’s awesome because he’s the one who started the company and he’s the one who made the company great. I think we went into a slump when he left it. He’s going to bring us back to where we were when he was there.”
Dixie Carter not knowing much about wrestling:
“I think the biggest thing is just knowing that there’s somebody in the office that actually knows what they’re doing,” said Moose. “Dixie was a great person but I think her only flaw was that she didn’t know much about wrestling. The product actually showed. But I think it’s great now that we have Jeff who knows about wrestling and was brought up in the wrestling business and he’s leading us.”
How Impact and other promotions can compete with WWE:
“It gets me so mad when companies are like ‘we don’t work with this company’ or ‘we don’t work with this company’,” explained Moose. “I think that’s so stupid because as of right now, WWE is the biggest wrestling company in the world. Everybody knows that. I feel like the only way that companies could catch up to WWE is to do a combination. I think it would be great for business for a company like Impact Wrestling to work with Ring of Honor and I think we were close to having that relationship before the Hardy’s left the company. We’ll see. You never say never in wrestling.”
