Billy Corgan was recently interviewed by Esquire, here are the highlights…
On finding a story that appeals to people: “Any culture, and I don’t care how hairsplitting you want to get, but the mainstreaming [process] is going to deal with the bias. Where it splits is where you find story. Not in race or gender, but where people are dealt with. In the workplace. If we can have a woman President. Or rock stars who aren’t supposed to be in wrestling.”
On why wrestling works as a dramatic sport: “Some of the biggest money-drawing feuds in the history of professional wrestling were based on, let’s call it ‘real things.’ You start with that foundational level, then you put that with a systemic way a wrestling company works, and somewhere in-between you get into real, sustained drama.”
On the evolution of wrestling: “People are doing things in the ring that people couldn’t dream of 30 years ago. 30 years from now, we’ll see things we couldn’t dream of today. You want to go to the circus and see something you’ve never seen. You go to a wrestling match and want to see something you’ve never seen.”
