On a recent edition of the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Daniel Garcia revealed a few things he wants to improve, including his physique and doing more live promos on AEW TV.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On wanting to work on his physique: “A couple of things I have to work on is, one, I know I’m skinny. Not skinny, I know I’m not in good wrestler shape, like huge. I know I’m in good shape, I can wrestle for two hours and be fine. I know I’m not jacked. Not that I want to be Hulk Hogan or anything, but I would like to get in better shape for TV purposes. I started working with Cezar Bononi this year. He works with a lot of people at AEW. He’s a very good personal trainer and nutritionist. That’s one thing I would like to work on.”
On working on his promos: When I got to AEW, I really worked hard on backstage promos and sit-down interviews. That was something I really worked on. Now, the more that I do in-ring promos, I realize that’s a lot different than sit-down interviews and you have to kind of adapt your game between those two things. I would like to get more opportunities to do live promos in-ring. That’s something I’d like to work on as well.”
In the world of professional wrestling, the competition is fierce and the stakes are high. Every wrestler dreams of holding a championship title, and for Christian Cage, that dream became a reality when he won the TNT Championship. However, his reign as champion is not without its challenges.
On a recent episode of AEW Dynamite, Adam Copeland faced off against Daniel Garcia in a match to determine the next challenger for Christian Cage’s TNT Championship. The match was intense, with both wrestlers giving it their all. But just when it seemed like Copeland might come out on top, Cage’s henchmen, Nick Wayne and Killswitch, interfered and attacked both Copeland and Garcia, causing a disqualification.
Cage took advantage of the chaos and entered the ring, delivering a devastating Con-Chair-To to Copeland. The message was clear – Cage and his allies will do whatever it takes to maintain control over the TNT Championship and decide who gets a shot at the title.
This incident has sparked controversy and raised questions about Cage’s tactics. Some fans argue that Cage and his allies are abusing their power and unfairly manipulating the championship scene. They believe that the decision of who challenges for the title should be left to the wrestlers themselves, rather than being dictated by Cage and what some have dubbed “the Patriarchy.”
In response to these accusations, Cage and his team have defended their actions, claiming that they are simply exercising their right as champions to protect their title. They argue that it is their responsibility to ensure that only the most deserving competitors have a chance to challenge for the championship.
While the controversy surrounding Cage’s reign continues to unfold, another wrestler involved in the match, Daniel Garcia, has spoken out about his aspirations for improvement. In an interview on the “Busted Open Radio” podcast, Garcia revealed that he wants to work on his physique and do more live promos on AEW TV.
Garcia acknowledges that he is not in the best physical shape and wants to focus on building a more impressive physique for television purposes. He has enlisted the help of Cezar Bononi, a personal trainer and nutritionist who works with many wrestlers at AEW, to guide him in his fitness journey.
Additionally, Garcia recognizes the importance of honing his promo skills. While he has worked hard on backstage promos and sit-down interviews, he believes that in-ring promos require a different approach and wants more opportunities to showcase his abilities in this area.
As the wrestling world awaits the next developments in the TNT Championship scene, it is clear that tensions are running high. The actions of Christian Cage and his allies have sparked controversy, while Daniel Garcia strives to improve himself and make a name for himself in the industry. Only time will tell how these storylines will unfold and who will ultimately emerge as the next challenger for the coveted TNT Championship.
