Following the successful launch of the Global Wrestling Network on the Xbox One, Team Venom Media's Rory Bailey was gifted an opportunity to ask the current Impact Wrestling Global Heavyweight Champion, Austin Aries, about his highlights.
Team Venom Media: Firstly, congratulations on your title win. We’ve recently seen the Global Wrestling Network for Impact Wrestling get launched on the Xbox One in the UK which has opened up a new avenue for viewers to see Impact. What highlights from your time with Impact would you recommend for people to watch on there?
Austin Aries: Off the top of my head, I think going back to my first stint there the paparazzi challenge – go back and watch those from time to time. Those are just a bunch of guys going out there and having some fun doing silly stuff but obviously that wasn’t me, that was Austin Starr but then fast forward to when I had a lot of success in the X-Division and there was a lot of exciting matches in there. I think my whole lead up to the option C and winning the World Championship against Bobby Roode – there was a lot of great matches mixed in there with Bully Ray and then going on to the feud with Jeff Hardy and then even the tag team stuff I did with Bobby Roode as the Dirty Heels. There was a lot of fun moments in there too. So it’s a great opportunity for fans to go back – and if you’re new to Impact Wrestling – to see some of the history, the lineage of the people who have been there throughout history and kind of get yourself familiar and again a great way for people to just enjoy the content. I think more and more companies are going in that direction where they have there streaming service that people subscribe to and really get the different content that they want, so it’s a really cool time to be a wrestling fan as there’s so much out there to be explored.
