Christopher Daniels

Christopher Daniels sofreu uma concussão durante o main-event do Destination X onde enfrentou AJ Styles. Nada foi divulgado oficialmente mas segundo Bryan Alvarez, Daniels chegando ao backstage não se recordava de como terminou o combate nem quem ganhou.

O The Rack entrevistou Christopher Daniels onde abordou vários assuntos da sua carreira e da TNA. Eis os highlights da entrevista:...

On his feud with AJ Styles: "There's nothing more heartwarming for me than going out and beating an athlete the caliber of AJ Styles. Every day, when I wake up and I tell the world that I'm the best wrestler in the world, all I have to do to prove it go out and beat AJ Styles. I mean, he's a Grand Slam champion, a former World Champion; he's held so many titles in this company, so that every time I pin him, all it does is solidify my standing as the best in the world."
On his evolution as a wrestler and performer: "It's growth. And I, as a performer, have grown, from 2002 to now. I have become better, I have become smarter. I've added more to my repertoire and that's what makes me the well-rounded professional wrestler that I am today."

On his epic match with AJ Styles and Samoa Joe: "The feud between the three of us; it's what put this company (TNA) on the map. Six years later, they still talk about that match, the one from Unbreakable (2005), as THE best match in the company's history. And why wouldn't they? It IS the best match in the company's history; it is the Temple, it is the gold standard of TNA Wrestling and will it ever be defeated? Probably not, let's be honest."

His pairing with Kazarian: "It's been great; we've been friends for more than a decade. We've never had an opportunity to be a solid tag team; we've tagged in the past but never anything long term and now three months after we become a tag team, we become the World Tag Team Champions; the number one tag team in professional wrestling today. It's been awesome. He's the best partner I've ever had"

Some of his favorite TNA moments: "Being in the matches everyone talks about after the fact: The cage match with AMW against Triple X, the three way with Joe and AJ, the match with Sting at Slammiversary. I mean all of the matches people remember are the ones with Christopher Daniels. I am the straw that stirs the drink of Impact Wrestling; that why I am the new face of Impact Wrestling….Thank you to the fans for continuing to be more like me and less like yourselves."

Christopher Daniels deu uma entrevista recentemente onde o grande destaque vai para o momento em que foi questionado sobre os rumores que apontam para a sua aposentadoria. O "Fallen Angel" disse: "I don't know where that started, I'm not looking to retire any time soon. Right now I feel I'm doing the best work of my career. My first goal was to get to 20 years, and in one month that will be the case. I've always said the minute it stops being fun I'll stop. But I'm still having fun, I'm still doing what I love, I'm working with great guys, I'm in good condition, I've been lucky to have had very few injuries over my career. I'm not looking to hang the boots up anytime soon."

Christopher Daniels falou recentemente ao Kayfabe Kickout onde um dos principais tópicos se prendeu com o que este esperava ainda compeltar noWrestling. A sua resposta foi: "Well I'm just gonna have fun until I stop having fun, if it ever became more work than it was fun I said to myself I was gonna get out. If I can't wrestle at the same level, or at the top level that I want to wrestle I'm gonna get out. I feel like I'm wrestling the best matches of my career, I'm in the best shape of my life. I can wrestle 25 or 30 minute matches if I have to, so at this point in my career I'm nowhere close to hanging up the boots."
