Austin Aries is one of the most underrated wrestlers on the planet. He’s wrestled everywhere and found great success everywhere against a who’s who of the last decade of pro wrestling.
He’s found great success in Ring of Honor, in Japan, and he’ll no doubt find it in NXT in time, but his name will be especially synonymous with TNA.
Recently, Aries appeared on the “Fightclub Chicago” podcast to discuss several topics in wrestling today. For example, he gave his opinion on his dream matches; the upcoming Global Cruiserweight Series WWE has planned, and the core issue that still plague TNA from reaching its true potential.
You can listen to the full podcast right here. Below is what Austin Aries had to saw about TNA’s ownership getting in the way of a healthy promotion:
“It always goes back to the ownership group. At the end of the day, you can change coaches and managers and players, but if there’s something intrinsic, something wrong, then you have to look at what the common denominator is, and, usually, you’ve got to look at the ownership because everything runs from there. All I can say is I hope they continue to remain a viable company where guys and girls can make a living and make money. The [professional] wrestling industry needs healthy, successful products and the more the better because that’s just more opportunities and jobs for the men and women who enjoy [doing] professional wrestling for a living.”
