The Associated Press and Dan Gelston recently spoke with new TNA creative team member Billy Corgan, who discussed his new position with the promotion. \Below are some highlights:
Corgan on why he joined TNA: “I’m not here as celebrity. I’m here as a skilled person that brings a lot of experience to the table… I don’t need fame. I have plenty of fame. It’s really about the talent.”
Corgan on TNA needing stars identified as only TNA stars: “We need stars that are wholly identified with TNA only, and maybe telling the types of stories that maybe have a different edge to them so that people will identify them as TNA-type stories.”
Corgan on needing to take advantage of the social media atmosphere: “If something gets hot and on a roll, people will talk. We have to build a vehicle that will continually provide that opportunity and take advantage of the social media atmosphere. We will win the day if we’re able to move quickly and in a way nobody’s ever tried in the wrestling business.”
