Trevor Murdoch who is also a former three times WWE Tag Team Champion recently spoke to the PW Torch where he revealed it was difficult to book a lot of female talents since indie wrestling was picking back up. He said;
“Some of the people who are publicly making comments and are upset and it was part of their decision, privately, they were burying the whole thing. That’s what makes me shake my head. Publicly, people want to say one thing, but privately, they were saying the opposite. I’m not going to air someone’s dirty laundry out.
“I heard it from the horse’s mouth. There are so many factors that go into it. Not to mention, some of the girls that we booked for the last EmPowerrr, the dates didn’t match up. They were already booked other places or were already with another company where they’re not allowed to wrestle for us.
“Why think of all that shit? Why put all that into consideration? It’s easy to look at a rich musician and bury him for one single comment and not put any thought in it. So many more dates and women were free and available because there weren’t as many promotions running. Now, we’re back into the thick of it and we’re working in front of crowds. People are trying to get jobs in other places. A lot of factors went into it and a lot were out of our control.”
