I didn’t make money for these programs, regrettably, however I comprehended why they did it,” Kurt stated. “After a while, I informed them, ‘Listen, that’s enough,’ due to the fact that they begin sending out and over there 5 times a year. It was absurd and I was getting 50 grand an appear Japan, and I wasn’t seeing any of the cash. It didn’t appear right to me after a while. I resembled, ‘Okay, I’m doing method excessive. You men require to withdraw simply let me do my TNA schedule.’ That’s what we did ultimately.”
This caused the WWE Hall of Famer discussing never ever signing with ROH.
“No, I’m stunned. I wasn’t truly interested in doing anything outside of TNA. Since the business desired me to, I did what I had to do. If they would have asked me to go to Ring of Honor– which I believe Ring of Honor, at that specific time, was a rival, so they didn’t desire me to review there and contend versus myself. I believe that’s the factor why I never ever did anything with Ring of Honor. Do not get me incorrect. I would’ve liked to.”
