The Daily Star in the UK held an interview with new TNA star Desmond Wolfe. Here's a few highlights from the man formerly known as Nigel McGuinness.
On where the new name came from:
"Everyone is asking me where I got the name from - someone said Withnail and I - but Vince (Russo) said he did an internet search of the most popular British names and came up with Desmond Wolfe!"
On getting to make his debut against Kurt Angle:
"Who gets the opportunity to come in on their first day and beat up Angle, I mean that's huge! Kurt has been great, just like everyone else - he's really open to ideas."
On whether he went to TNA because he failed a WWE medical screening:
"I had a clean bill of health from my orthopedic guy and my local doctor, so it's not about that. I don’t hold against anything against them, it was a business decision, and they (WWE) were only doing what they think is best for them."
It should be noted that Nigel/Desmond never actually says in the interview why WWE made that "business decision" to not bring him in.
