Nic Nemeth reviews his career: your times in WWEthe rebirth of TNAhis team with his brother and his mission of leaving wrestling better than he found it. Next, we read the most interesting statements of the fighter in a recent interview with Sportskeeda Wrestlebing.
► En Palabras de Nic Nemeth
About what he learned in WWE and his departure
«I learned almost everything in this Vincehon business (McMahon)and they are things that have been tested for hundreds of years. In my last years there, we were not doing the best job. I thought they needed a change … and they had it. Many of the things that were previously impossible with Vince, are now opening large doors and creating really intelligent businesses. It is not that it is good or bad, Vince is a pioneer and won billions. But sometimes you need someone to challenge you, a new perspective. “
About the success of TNA and its resurgence
«We had a base campaign so strong that we never gave up. We had no big goals … until we said: 'Let's make SlamIVIVARY an event that everyone is talking about.' We did it. More than 7,600 people in the sand, on from the pre-show to the main event. The next day we were already working on Bound for Glory. We already have the largest presale in the history of the event. We want everyone to know the hottest brand in professional wrestling.»
About including references in your promos
«Sometimes I wanted to put Archer references or songs by Mötley Crüe in the comments. Once I put nine songs in a single show. The key is not to force references, they must flow naturally as in a fight. If you can do it in a way to help tell a story, demonstrate your intelligence and love for this business.»
About teaming with his brother Ryan Nemeth
«I didn't want it to seem forced just because we are brothers. I told Ryan and the creative team that if it didn't work, I canceled it. But at the second or third week we already had chemistry. We had made comedy and acting together before. The public went from not reacting, to boo it so much that they did not let him speak. I realized: this is working. “
About the collaboration between TNA and WWE/NXT
«This type of collaboration would probably have never happened if Vince was still in command. Now NXT talents appear in TNA and vice versa. That expands the audience and is very intelligent. With the Hardys, me, and young talents hungry, we are creating something that everyone should see.»
About his role as a mentor and veteran
«Every week someone reminds me of me years ago. Sometimes they have crazy ideas and explain why they don't work … but maybe in 2025. If we can combine the 80's psychology with the spectacularness of 2025, we can make beautiful fights and shows. (Anecdotal): A young fighter told me: 'I had your shirt … I used it in the fourth grade' … and I only said: 'Of course, yes, great …' “
About its longevity and professional ethics
«In 21 years, there were only two Mondays where I was not available. No one will do that again. I have never had a serious injury. I didn't take a break when I went to record a movie. They put me in a live event while filming. I am the absolute Iron Man of this business. 30 minutes ago in the star event in the live shows. »
About your current goals
«I don't mind winning titles or counting championships. What matters to me is to leave this industry better than I found it. I want that in 20 years they say that I contributed something real to this industry. Because this is how each person should think about this business. I will never give less than 100%. “
