Bellator MMA fighter “Rampage” Jackson slammed his
former employer TNA Wrestling to the mat on Wednesday, calling them out for
being incompetent and filling his head with big promises that never came
through.
Rampage said he knew immediately that TNA was ran
poorly and flat out refused to fight other MMA fighters in worked pro wrestling
matches. Here are some highlights from Rampage’s interview with TheFightNerd.com
from Wednesday:
If He Plans To Work For TNA Wrestling
Again:
“To be honest, as soon as I went over there and saw
their operation and how they ran things, there were no plans for me to go back.
There was a lot of momentum with me when I came out with Kurt Angle and I was
supposed to wrestle Kurt Angle and they lost all momentum.
They didn’t utilize me in any way, I gave them a
couple ideas on how to utilize me and they wanted me to wrestle professional
[MMA] fighters. I was like, ‘No, I’m not doing that.’ They just had no idea what
they were doing, in my opinion. So no, you won’t see me in TNA ever
again.”
Did He See The Writing On The Wall In
TNA?
“Oh yeah, I saw it. I was like, I don’t know whats up
with this company, I don’t know what’s going on, I’m outtie. Dixie and Big asked
me to come over and do some stuff, they never came through on anything they said
they were going to. You guys aint the first people to fill me full of dreams.
I’m not buying into that.”
