Sonjay Dutt recently spoke with The Rack about Global Force Wrestling and much more. Here are the highlights…
On Being Part of Global Force Wrestling: “Yeah, absolutely. I’m just really excited to be a part of something new, on the ground floor and in the first stages of this brand new company. It’s very similar to back in 2003 when I started with TNA and it was about a year old, or barely a year old and Jeff Jarrett had just started a new company and I climbed on board and here we are in 2015 and we’re doing it all over again.”
On What Separates Them From TNA: “I think the presentation of the product is a little different, I guess very different, so you can’t really predict how things are going to go but I do know that we’ve got an awesome roster and I think the one thing that separates us for every other wrestling promotion is talent and we’ve got a loaded line-up next Friday at our first TV tapings; our Grand Slam events had loaded line-ups as well. We’re not just looking for the world-wide international stars but we’re looking for the regional stars and the diamonds in the rough, the ones the fans might not know about that need that stage to shine.”
On Possibly Winning The GFW Nex*Gen Title: “It would be amazing. It would be awesome; being a part of something brand new and being crowned the first ever. The first ever anything is kinda cool but especially in this environment where it’s the kind of wrestling I excel at and honed over the years and perfected, that kind of adds to it. I think all that stuff is going to come to life not just next Friday, but as the days and weeks go by. The NEX*GEN division is going to be very similar to the X-Division but we’re going to be focusing on the next generation of high-flyers, the next generation of hybrid wrestlers out there, basically taking every style here is out there in pro wrestling and meshing it together and there’s a lot of guys out there that have traveled the world, much like I have, and perfected your Lucha style, your Japanese style, your American style and bring them all together and get this one big, hybrid style of wrestling and we truly think that is the next generation of wrestling. Gone are the days of the slow, and I don’t want to say boring, but action-based pro wrestling is the future and action-based pro wrestling is the next generation.”
On The Jarrett’s Appearing on TNA TV: “I think it was crazy and was about the same reaction everyone else had in ‘What is going on here?!’ I’m sure that’s what was going on Jeff’s mind as he was walking to the ring and as he was ring the ring speaking his mind. But, it’s a crazy business; the wrestling business is a crazy business. You cannot predict anything and you cannot rule anything out. Time will only tell what this brings not only to TNA but to GFW as well.”
