'I See A Lot Of People Straight Up Hating That I’m Getting A World Title Shot' - Tommy Dreamer
Posted By: Ben Kerin on Feb 12, 2021
Tommy Dreamer will be going up against Rich Swann for the Impact World Championship this Saturday night at Impact Wrestling Rebellion PPV. The match was gifted to Dreamer as he is turning 50.
During a recent media call, Dreamer responded to those who criticize older stars for being booked in main event spots.
"Iām not a social justice warrior, but I see a lot of people straight up hating that Iām getting a world title shot for the fact that Iām 50 years old. And theyāre like, āOh, thereās so much youthā and all that stuff. Okay, number one: do you not like me because Iām going to be 50 on my birthday? Like, Iām sorry Iām 50 and Iām still wrestling? But there should never be that about anything.
Like, Iāve even said that itās a gift and itās something that Rich [Swann] wanted to do. So how do you begrudge someone? David Arquette, someone said, āHey! Youāre a big fan. Do you want to wrestle for the world title?ā And that was met with such hatred in this dark day in professional wrestling. Yet hereās a guyā¦ Like, if someone said to me or DāLo [Brown], āHey, thereās a football game on Sunday. Itās called the Super Bowl. Would you like to play one down?ā I donāt know anybody that wouldnāt say yes."
