About
A mixtape about being a wrestler, but not necessarily about wrestling. recorded in my mom’s basement. amateurly mixed in my brand new condo. inspired by the people who hate me. for the people who love me.
During a recent appearance on the “Bob Culture” podcast, TNA World Champion Joe Hendry commented on his title win at Genesis 2025 and how he wanted the celebration to feel. He said,
“Yeah, I made a conscious decision of how I would react. Some things are organic and in the moment and other things you think, this is how I would like this to go. I remember when the three count hit I just took a moment to collect myself, I wanted it to feel like when Steve Austin first won the title at WrestleMania 14. I didn’t want it to be like, because my family were there in attendance. I didn’t want it to be a moment where, everybody’s crying and all this. I wanted it to be very much, this is my time now and I’m taking the throne. That’s how it was supposed to feel. That’s how I felt. I got up on the turnbuckle. It was an amazing feeling. It’s, 12 years of hard work. Whirlwind of a year in 2024 and we finally got it done.”
During a recent virtual signing for K&S Wrestlefest, Brock Anderson explained why he decided to turn down a contract renewal offer from AEW. He said,
“About two years in, probably. Hindsight’s 20/20. It was a brand-new company. They’d only done a handful of TVs before COVID. Then they went into COVID. So in one sense, it was the best place for me to be because it wasn’t like I could be out on the indies, they weren’t running. So at least I was there. When I was there, Cody was there. We were at Jacksonville, at Daly’s Place. During the TV days, they would have all the young guys out there, and some of the boys [would be] watching, and they’d be like, ‘That was good, this was bad.’ In that respect, it was good. Like I said, it was a newish company and we were in the middle of a global pandemic. We didn’t know if we were going to develop a training center or any of that, it was early. You’re just like, okay, we’ll keep doing this and see what happens, [we’ll] see how they bring us along. Once we got out of the pandemic, we were rocking and rolling, it was just TVs, and that school never came. After doing those five-minute Universal matches, you can’t really get better doing that. It’s too short of a time, you don’t learn how to wrestle. After about a year and a half, I was like this is…it’s great, I loved everybody there, I appreciate the opportunity, Tony [Khan] and everybody. It’s just, where I was, I needed to be somewhere where I could actually get repetitions and learn the business. They sent me another, they wanted to redo the current deal I was on, but it was not enough, so I was like maybe we just don’t do this and we go our separate ways. I think it was the best decision I’ve made. If I just stayed there and worked the five, six times a year that I was guaranteed, I would never have the mentor I have sitting to my left [CW Anderson] and all the knowledge I’ve soaked up in that short amount of time.”
