News On Paul Heyman/TNA, SoCal Val, Desmond Wolfe, More
- Paul Heyman did an interview with Bryan Alverez during the UFC 116 weekend in Las Vegas. He said he has no desire to join TNA unless he's given complete control and points in the company. Basically he wants to be Dana White. "I'm not interested in being a cog in the wheel," he said. "If I'm going to put my emotional investment into it, I want to get something financially and emotionally out of it." Heyman believes that TNA has a 5 percent market share of the industry right now with WWE controlling the rest. He said: "They need to redefine the company and take about 10 percent of that market share off the WWE. Then they make some serious money and bring in multi-millions. If I could take the company and turn it around, boost PPV revenue, work with Spike and make it work then it would be worth the emotional investment for me. There's nothing that I'm doing now that will pay $25-30million dollars over the course of the next five years. If that's a situation that can happen, and I can also put a team together and put together a five year plan, then it merits a lot of consideration. If it means anything less than that, I'm not taking the time away from my children."
- The Sun has an interview with Desmond Wolfe to promote the UK tour in January. He put over the other British wrestlers in the company. "When I started out in wrestling, Doug (Williams) was one of my peers that I aspired towards," he said. "I watched a lot of his technical wrestling when he was working for (UK promoter) Brian Dixon and he helped me a lot. I tagged with him in Japan and stuff like that. It was great to see him there in TNA." Wolfe added: "Magnus I hadn't actually met before I went to TNA, but I think he is a tremendous talent. He has great ability to make people dislike him! I think he's brilliant! And then Rob (Terry). He's the heart and soul. He genuinely wants to be the best wrestler he possibly can and is very respectful ad works his a*** off. You can only get good things from people like that." Wolfe also says he wrestled Kurt Angle on several shows during the last UK tour and this time around is hoping for matches with RVD or Jeff Hardy.
- Scott Hall and Sean Waltman did interviews this past week with Gods of Rock radio in Chicago. Hall was very emotional and broke down crying several times when discussing his health noting he's suffering from a mental illness. Friends of Hall say he is working on getting better.
