Tommy Dreamer Promo
Moose, I have been in this business for 30 years. I have face and fought thousands of wrestles. And I could count on one hand the amount of wrestlers that have the natural god-given ability and talent that you have. And you used that natural god-given ability and talent to make it all the way to the NFL. And because I know you, I know your story. You see, you didn’t have dreams about playing in the NFL. You did it because your friends. told you to come and play. And with that talent, you actually became an NFL player for six years. And once football says goodbye to you, you become a professional wrestler. Why? Not because you had dreams about being a professional wrestler, because you were looking for another paycheck. And because of your natural god-given ability, you became one hell of a professional wrestler.
You’re one of the fastest rising stars. But maybe just like in the NFL, when you didn’t listen to your coaches, I don’t know like, Bill Belichick, who you played for or your famous players like Tom Brady. You didn’t listen to your friends like Eddie Edwards, Tommy Dreamer, D-Lo Brown, Scott D’Amore, or a bunch of men and women who learned this business and learned from their mistakes and didn’t want to see you make them. And you’re gonna be a bust in professional wrestling as well, because guess what, Moose, you didn’t any championship. You couldn’t cut it here, so you just created a title for yourself. That’s now how titles are won or lost. And if you think i’m mad about this, i’ve been beaten up by better.
Moose, there was an idol of mine named “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes and he talked about hard times. Well, maybe you haven’t noticed, we’re in the hardest times of the world. And the world stopped, but professional wrestling hasn’t. And you’ve been looking at this place for a paycheck and not because of heart and passion. Give me a locker room of men and women of Impact Wrestling that work their asses off. You know what, Moose? We’re afraid, but Impact Wrestling did everything in their power to make us feel happy, to make us feel secure when nobody knew what was going on.
And you know the only person who complained, it was you, you narcissistic son of a bitch. You complained about catering, about you can’t eat this crap, was your exact words. Why do you just say thank you for the free food or why’d you go take your ass back to a store and buy whatever food you need? Be a locker room leader, not a locker room cancer. And just like The American Dream, my belly may be a little big, my heinie may be a little big, but i’m a bad, violent man. And Moose, the truth hurts. No one ever paid a ticket to see you play in the NFL. No one ever paid a ticket to see you wrestle. You are going to be a footnote in the NFL, and you’re going to be a footnote in professional wrestling. You know why? ‘Cause you’re a waste of talent.
