In her latest vlog Thunder Rosa seems frustrated with her current role in AEW: “I wish I could say that I got this on the pocket, but I don’t. I really don’t. Losing, losing, losing makes you really somber and sad and question yourself. I’ve been questioning myself a lot lately. Straight up. I want to be a champion, but everybody else is telling me that I don’t have what it takes to be a champion. Eh, okay. Then what the fuck do I have to do? Show my tits? I don’t know.”
Tommy Dreamer says the TNA roster isn’t sweating recent talent departures: “If somebody’s contract is coming up, or if WWE – why would you not want them to go experience something else? Here’s also what I will say: this place will always be here. As long as I’m here, this place will always be here. When you come back, you could be an even bigger star for this company, whether you fail or succeed. Think about if AJ Styles ever came to TNA, it’s massive. Think of if LA Knight showed up in TNA, right? Motor City Machine Guns. Think of if they return, it’s going to be bigger for the company, right?”
Jordynne Grace says she felt “expendable” when she lost to Deonna Purrazzo: “I had just won the Knockouts Championship for the first time, and Deonna Purrazzo had come over to TNA, and she won the title from me her very first weekend there. And I remember feeling so expendable and so just off-put by that, I just thought to myself, ‘Well, something has to change, because if someone can just come in here and just take my spot, I have to do something. I have to change something in order for that not to happen ever again.’ I actually got my first fitness coach that following week.”
Matt Mako talks about getting feedback from Jon Moxley after a ROH taping: “As far as feedback from Mox, I think he appreciates my style to a degree, a little more ‘shooty,’ for lack of a better term. Good on the strikes. In terms of actual critiques, there were maybe structural things within the match we could’ve done better with the time we had. I sat with Mox in catering for 45 minutes just talking about Jurassic Park movies to wrestling psychology. It was a good weekend. We were talking maybe Fast & Furious and how those movies have gotten so ridiculous. I’ve never seen any of them, but the point is, Jurassic Park should do the same thing. Dinosaurs with lasers in space. Ludacris is there driving a rocket. The one movie did have a raptor with a laser, it was sold as a weapon. Moxley was talking about, ‘I thought they were going to go through caves in Afghanistan and look for bad guys.’ Then we had a productive talk about wrestling psychology.”
