Impact Wrestling star Bram spoke with Robert Krupar from www.artofwrestling.cz abo
Robert Krupar: How would you describe working for Impact under the leadership of Dixie Carter and Anthem/Jeff Jarrett? What are your thoughts on Billy Corgan?
Bram: I love Billy Corgan! He´s a close friend of mine and someone I hold in high regard. His mind for the business and business in general is impeccable. Having him on board for the time he was with us, for me, was fantastic. I´m pretty sure all the boys would agree with that too.
I always liked Dixie a lot and she was good to me. I had no issues with her whatsoever. What goes on in the office or behind closed doors is not my business nor do I put much thought into it, my job is to entertain. Anthem seem keen to get stuck into Impact and turn it around for the better so I´m all for it. Having Jeff Jarrett back is great, it´s his baby at the end of the day and he gets and understands the business from every angle.
Robert Krupar: Are you a fan of women´s wrestling and who is your favourite female wrestler?
Bram: I can´t say I watch a lot of women´s wrestling but I will watch if Ashley is on. Without sounding bias, Charlotte Flair, (Ashley) is my ultimate favorite. She´s the best in the world when it comes to women´s wrestling. Hell, she´s stepping on the dudes toes too! She has so much natural charisma, it´s effortless to her. It´s like she´s been doing it forever and she´s only been doing it for a handful of years. I love watching her work.
Robert Krupar: You were suspended by Pro Wrestling Noah for „an inappropriate social media post“ a few weeks ago. Would you like to comment on this?
Bram: Me and Robbie E were asked to come over to Japan to take part in the Global Tag League. Me and Robbie were killing it as a team over there and had great matches. I love Japan and the style and I was excited to have the opportunity to go over there and wrestle for NOAH. Their office is great and the boys were great to us. I loved it! However one evening as a joke I lay on an ice cream fridge and took a picture, which I put on my Instagram account. I was trying to be funny and meant no harm, I had no idea it would upset people, no idea!
I publicly apologized for the incident to the media but it was too late, NOAH suspeneded me due to the picture. I hope one day I can return to NOAH and finish what i started. I like it there. The relationship between NOAH and Impact is completely fine and there´s no hard feelings. I just had no idea it would be such a bad thing and honestly meant it only to be funny. I´m hoping once the dust settles I can go back because I know they liked me.
Robert Krupar: I simply loved the DCC. It was one of the best factions I can remember so I was disappointed when the new regime decided to disband this group early. Do you agree with their decision or do you think that DCC should last longer?
Bram: We all had fun in the DCC. Storm and Kingston are close amigos of mine so us teaming together was awesome, super easy and fun. I´d like to have kept going with it, but that´s outta my hands.
Robert Krupar: As a former member of The Ascension, can you tell me why the entire „Ascension project“ didn´t work on the main WWE roster, especially after their successful run in NXT?
Bram: The Ascension was cool and I am glad I was a part of the early stages I am still close with both guys, Konnor and Viktor. I wish them nothing but the best and success. What we did and what is on TV now is a completly different product to what we were doing when I was part of it, so I can´t really comment. However, they are on TV and making money so to me that is still a successful endeavour.
