Former Impact Wrestling World Champion Rich Swann recently chatted with Chris Van Vliet on his Insight podcast and one topic broached was the Mt. Rushmore of Impact Wrestling.
Swann, who recently signed a new two-year contract with the company, gave his opinion on who he would grant the prestigious honor to.
He said, “For me, [creating a TNA/Impact Mount Rushmore is] easy because these are the guys that definitely — especially when I was young and just started to get into pro wrestling as an athlete and everything like that. I would stay Sting, for sure. I would say, Christian Cage, for sure, because he was definitely a big jump. Once he left WWE to come to TNA, nobody thought that like, ‘Oh, wait a minute! What’s he doing here?!” The whole star on the thing and the video of his feet — that whole thing was awesome. Definitely AJ Styles. The last one, though, you know what, you might be right. It is hard. Yeah, Samoa Joe, for sure. He definitely had a type of aura about him that was like, ‘Alright.’ And, at that point, too, he wasn’t somebody that came over from WWE or anything like that. Both him and AJ were homegrown.”
