Scott D’Amore recently spoke with CBC in Canada to discuss the return of his Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling promotion.
As we previously reported here on eWn, D’Amore announced that the company would be holding its first events on October 19th and 20th.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On growing up watching Maple Leaf Wrestling: “It was what came through on Saturdays on CHCH out of Hamilton. Every week they took a match from one of the Maple Leaf Gardens house shows, live events, and they showed it on TV, and the only place you got to see that was on Maple Leaf Wrestling.”
On launching Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling: “Canadian talent has to work twice as hard, three times as hard as U.S. talent … I think we can give that platform for Canadian talent to go out there and compete with the best in the world and show how good they are.”
