Edge interview bits:
How he feels not wrestling and being prepared to retire in 2011
Retiring as champ
Why he distanced himself from WWE
Saving money
His distancing himself from the company comment is pretty much what and why Daniel should have stayed away. I know they wanted him to do the Cruiserweight thing and the general manager spot on Smackdown, but Bryan hanging around is seeing all these guys perform and he can't. Edge stuck around to help build Christian vs. ADR for a few weeks after his retirement, was there to embrace Christian when he won the World title for the first time and then he disappeared except for a few spots here and there (promo on Christian before his SS11 match vs. Randy and the segment with Seth Rollins and John Cena).
I miss Edge. If he wanted to come back as SD GM I'd be open to that
Billy needs to make sure he's not gonna have a mental breakdown first. So much of his genius (like so many before him) is attributed to the fact he lives on the fringe. It's that instability that is both a gift and a curse but I can't see how it will help in in a major business venture.
Who is even wrestling for them anymore? Lashley, Galloway, the Hardys? Is James Storm even with them anymore? Abyss has to be 40+ years old now. God I don't even want to look. Last time I did I wasn't sure whether or not to feel sadness or say, "Well that's what happens"
well Andrew Everett, Davey Richards & Eddie Edwads, Drew Galloway, ECIII, Mark Andrews & Trevor Lee is a talented enough group of young-ish wrestlers to build around. But something Meltzer seems to say everytime he reviews PWG is that Everett, Lee and Andrews look a million bucks in PWG, but in TNA...
Yeah, well, it's not like the grass hasn't always been greener for underutilized talent. But they do have talent, it's not like the product is unwatchable.
Billy Corgan has publicly talked of wanting to buy a majority interest in TNA. It is believed that as of right now, TNA is owned by Dixie Carter, Corgan and Aroluxe. Corgan and Aroluxue got their points in the company by funding the recent television tapings. Carter at this point still owns in the neighborhood of 70 percent of the company, but Corgan was able to get control and the Presidency of the company for putting recent money in. Aroluxe didn’t raise enough money by the end of August to buy the company, which had been expected to happen. Corgan and his investors are working on putting together a deal. The winner in this appears to be John Gaburick. The feeling was he was gone if Aroluxe had gotten the company, while he’s apparently on Corgan’s good side. Carter apparently wants at least $4 million for her stock in the company. There is the feeling this deal needs to go through because they need the money to do the next set of tapings which start on 10/2, which will cost somewhere between $600,000 and $800,000 total. If they get the tapings done, TNA will at least have everything in the can through the end of November, at which point the new ownership would have to fund another set of tapings
We still live in a world where Billy Corgin is considered a genius?
