Teddy Hart Speaks Out – Konnan, Shawn Michaels, More

Teddy Hart was recently interviewed on The Programme, discussing recreating Stampede Wrestling in Canada, wrestling for AAA in Mexico and more. Here are the highlights…

On Reviving Stampede Wrestling: “Konnan is a big reason behind that. Because he was a part of Stampede at it’s pinnacle as a feeder system for New Japan, WWE…. But, when he saw the state of Wrestling in Alberta… 3 years ago. He was quite appalled. Because Bret due to his stroke and due to other ailments has not been able to promote or do anything for Alberta Wrestling…. So, Konnan stepped up and let me use his name and the AAA name which is the second largest wrestling company on the earth right now. That draws live crowds and doesn’t pay studio audience crowds to come in and watch… Not disrespecting TNA, but that’s not a real show when you gotta pay the audience or the audience doesn’t pay to watch…. But AAA they provided a really good opportunity for me and Jack to showcase our skill but no one got to see it in Canada. So the people in Canada were sort of curious to create a feeder system between Stampede Wrestling… by bringing it back… Next Generation Stampeded Wrestling we’d be taking talent from AAA, possibly TNA if they’d like to work with us, Ring of Honor and the guys from Canada… There is an open draft for anyone in Canada if they’d like to try out. But Konnan got the idea to get inspired that you can bring wrestling back to Alberta. If Mexico can still do these big indy shows… and are constantly drawing 3-5,000 people for house shows that wrestling is not dead, that it just needs to be changed.”

On Ways To Entertain Fans: “I don’t care if you think it’s stupid. But I think it would be (Expletive) cool to have a German Sheppard on a dog whistle run out and pull out the referees leg before I had the 3 count done… There is a lot of room in Wrestling for cool (Expletive) to happen. I just want to be the one to help it happen..”

On Shawn Michaels Being The Best Ever: “He was the only guy who evolved or innovated. Everyone else stuck with the same moveset. How many guys do you know who in their career who learned the moonsault off the top after just doing a crossbody?”
