Summary

Frankie Kazarian returned to TNA earlier this year, and shares the circumstances that led him to that decision. He talks about his relationship with TNA President Scott D’Amore, why he wanted to keep his TNA return a surprise, and what’s different about the company compared to his first run there in the early 2000s. Frankie explains why he asked Tony Khan to let him out of his AEW contract, and how TK responded. He also remembers the early days of AEW, what made them so special, and why he’s proud to be one of the AEW “first nine” alongside the likes of Cody Rhodes, The Young Bucks, Scorpio Sky, Christopher Daniels, and Hangman Adam Page. Plus, he has an update on Gutter Candy’s future plans, and gives a review of Metallica’s Summer stadium tour! Thank you for supporting our sponsors!
