Lance Storm has revealed that he may step away from TNA if the company starts airing live every week.
Storm’s comments came after TNA Wrestling President Carlos Silva appeared on The Ariel Helwani Show and shared that their partners Anthem have expressed interest in weekly live broadcasts as part of ongoing TV deal discussions.
Responding to Silva’s remarks, Storm explained on Wrestling Observer Live that while he enjoys working with TNA and values his colleagues, a weekly live schedule would disrupt the balance between his personal life and work.
“Yeah, this has been talked about many times and my answer is always there’s a good chance I won’t be working there if that happens. I love TNA, I love my job, I love everyone that I work with. But, my life has always been a balance of my home life and my schedule and the idea of flying out early Wednesday to not get home till later in the day Friday is a three-day week job and I’m not sure that’s in the cards for me anymore.”
Although he remains open to a possible compromise, Lance Storm admitted that committing to a weekly schedule is not something he’s looking for at this stage of his career. “Maybe we could work out a deal that I didn’t do every week. Who knows? I would do everything I could to stay with the company should that happen and that’d be great if they could get a great media rights deal. But, I’m not looking at a full-time schedule at this point in my life.” [H/T: Fightful]
