The launch of American Freestyle Wrestling has become a hot topic in recent days, fueled by the involvement of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff. With the promotion’s first event scheduled for August 30, fans are eagerly anticipating how the organization will distinguish itself in the competitive landscape of combat sports.
In a recent interview with Fox & Friends, the MAGA-maniac shared an ambitious vision for the company. He said,
“This is freestyle wrestling, but now it’s professional because we’re able to pay the athletes. Izzy is our linchpin — he’s trained Olympic wrestlers, NCAA champions, and top college athletes. He helped us recruit elite talent and get them signed.”
He added, “We’re not trying to go head-to-head with Dana White or WWE. But our goal is to be just as big, if not bigger. This is an underserved market, and we’re here to change that.”
