A lot of wrestlers will wrestle until they\u2019re 50 or 60. I didn\u2019t want to not be able to walk and play with my kids. I escaped any serious injuries. My last match was against Chris Sabin, I enjoyed it and it was awesome, and it was the perfect note to leave on.<\/p>\n<p><b>On the Canadian Destroyer finisher:<\/b> I just had a conversation with Sami Callihan this past weekend and he said hey, bro, I don\u2019t think you understand but you changed the wrestling business. You were the first one to introduce the Canadian Destroyer. You brought a video game move into reality. I kind of have to take the move back. I knew what to do with the move when I had it. Now that I\u2019m back it\u2019s fair warning to everyone to stop using my move. Stop using it, or if not challenge me and we\u2019ll get it on. When I first had the move people were sitting and waiting for the Canadian Destroyer. I couldn\u2019t have a false finish and actually have it be a false finish if I didn\u2019t do the Destroyer. I hated being a one-move wonder but then I decided to embrace it and take it as far as it could go. Bubba Ray who had the 3D gave me tips about how to get the move more over and how to tease it. Now I base my match around trying to hit that move. I stopped fighting it and embraced it and that\u2019s how I got to where I am today. For what it\u2019s worth I\u2019ve created something that will last forever. Remember when Hulk [Hogan] said he wish he did a choke hold instead of a leg drop. I\u2019m gonna be landing on my hips and my ass forever.<\/p>\n<p><b>On how things have changed in the past three years:<\/b> If you look at the guys I was in the mix with at the time look where they are now. AJ Styles, [Samoa] Joe they\u2019re headlining Raw, Smackdown, PPV\u2019s. My former two Team Canada members Bobby Roode and Eric Young. Ah maybe I retired a couple years too early but I enjoy where I\u2019m at now today and I hope I could re-ignite that now where I left off. I got released from TNA in 2009 and then came back for a short stint in 2013. I really didn\u2019t like what they did with me in that run. It was all 3-way matches. There was no story. I don\u2019t know if TNA and WWE had a lawsuit but they [WWE] were not interested. They didn\u2019t want to touch anybody that was related to TNA. Even in 2014 when I retired they didn\u2019t want to touch anybody. It seemed like right after I retired they started to pick up everybody from TNA. And they weren\u2019t burying them; they were pushing them and making them top guys. Maybe I did retire a little too early. You can tell and I wholeheartedly believe this. The main roster and NXT you see that former X Division style. In the early 2000\u2019s you didn\u2019t realize that TNA was creating a revolution. You didn\u2019t realize that you would look back at the talent that was there that changed wrestling. But that\u2019s exactly what happened.<\/p>\n<p><b>The series of events that originally led to him leaving Impact:<\/b> I was doing the Petey Pump gimmick with Scott Steiner. My contract was coming up and it seemed like they were getting ready to write me out. Steiner joined the Main Event Mafia and they did an injury angle with me to separate Steiner and I. Then they called me back to TV to interfere in a match to help AJ Styles win against the Main Event Mafia. It was the first time I was ever aligned with AJ Styles in the history of my TNA run. That day prior to the tapings, I met with Terry Taylor the head of Talent Relations. I\u2019m standing there with Alex Shelley, all our contracts were up around the same time, mine and the Motor City Machine Guns. And Terry tells us not to worry that we are going to be re-signed. Negotiations are going well. I did some motion capturing for the video game in Los Angeles. Then I get a call from Taylor and he tells me Petey, we\u2019ve decided we aren\u2019t going to re-sign you. I always say it\u2019s a BS line when they say something like they\u2019ve got nothing for you. He said that they were going to pay out the rest of my contract. Come to the next PPV and the TV Tapings. Then they\u2019re going to do a loser leaves town match and I\u2019m going to lose and leave.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I couldn\u2019t say anything. Anything they tell me to do I would do it. They had me get shot by a paintball gun, shave my head on TV. If you write a storyline for me, I\u2019m going to execute it the best that I can. I was working against Bobby Roode and James Storm and I told them this is my last match. Everyone was telling me to stop messing around. Nobody believed it and I said it\u2019s real. It\u2019s something that I love to do and I was living my boyhood dream. It was devastating. It started a domino effect. Jimmy Rave got released. Then Sonjay [Dutt]. Months at a time just releasing people. I can\u2019t explain it. People respected my position in the company. Even when I was done the match I said my goodbye in the ring and walked through the curtain. A good portion of the locker room was standing there at the Gorilla Position clapping and giving me hugs.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>What he missed most:<\/b> I missed the boys. I had been under contract with TNA for 5 years. I had traveled with these guys every weekend, rooming with them; you see them more than your own family. I remember when we got the deal with Fox Sports Net, and started filming in Orlando. All of us as unit we were all excited to move forward. As more WWE guys started coming in, you felt that kind of dissipate a little bit but you still had your core guys that you started with and felt like a family with them. You\u2019re living the dream. Then you get a call one day that your dream that you\u2019ve been living and that you\u2019ve worked for your entire life gets ripped away from you for no apparent reason. And guess what you\u2019re not going to see your friends anymore because you\u2019re not going down there and traveling with them. That\u2019s the biggest thing that I missed about wrestling.<\/p>\n<p><b>Would he ever consider going to NXT:<\/b> Maybe Team Canada re-forms there. Nah they probably wouldn\u2019t go for that but who knows. Bobby [Roode] and Eric [Young] started in TNA with me at the exact same time. We worked our way up in this business together. What\u2019s good about the WWE product now is that they\u2019ve brought the TNA\/ROH style to WWE TV. That\u2019s the new age of wrestling. It\u2019s great for all talent. No more typecasting as a TNA guy, ROH guy, WWE guy, Japan guy. Now you could go from one company to the other. All the styles are now intermixed and we could go anywhere nowadays. I would\u2019ve been a guy back in the day who they\u2019d say he couldn\u2019t be in WWE because of whatever stigma they had. It wouldn\u2019t be like that anymore. At the end of the day I just want to wrestle. I\u2019ll wrestle whoever, whenever. As long as I get to wrestle in front of the fans and they appreciate it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-4267609574\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Main Event Radio with Pete&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":21072,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,8],"tags":[181,86,1794],"class_list":["post-28429","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tna_news","category-interview_highlights","tag-gfw","tag-impact-wrestling","tag-petey-williams"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
