It was reported over the weekend that Ring of Honor and Lucha Underground star Alberto “Del Rio” El Patron turned down an offer to work for TNA Wrestling that would have made him around $400,000 per year. There was some speculation that the current AAA World Heavyweight Champion did not want to work for TNA because doing it is perceived as a “career killer” and he had been advised by some close friends to not sign with them.
TNA Superstar Manik responded to that report and says TNA has changed his life for the better. Manik tweeted the following:
the rumor is wrestlers consider tna a career killer.
how bout u bud Because of TNA I bought a brand new 3 story house, 2 nice cars, and boatloads of shoes, and put a bunch in my savings, and I just signed a 2 year extension and got a raise….4 years ago I was homeless.
Forget saving my career, being here has saved my life and helped me take care of my extended family who was struggling as well.
But it’s not trendy to some ppl so I guess none of that stuff counts right?
