WWE NXT writer Eddie Dennis spoke with Irish Wrestling & Entertainment on a number of topics, including what his future holds in pro wrestling following his victory at PROGRESS Chapter 170.
Dennis said, “I proved to myself today and at Strong Style that I can still hang with the best in PROGRESS. [Man Like] DeReiss might want a title shot, Leon might want a title shot, but they can have a title shot next year, they can have a title shot in five years, they can have a title shot in ten years. I might not be around, I definitely ain’t gonna be around in five years. I might not be around in one year, so they can wait.”
“I don’t know, tonight I proved that I think I can beat any of these guys. But I don’t know how [much] longer I’ll have that in me. So it’s a little bit do or die for me. 2025, I don’t know if I’ll be a wrestler. So if I can get an opportunity at the PROGRESS Title one more time in 2024…I held it once, but it really wasn’t for long enough. I still think I got something to contribute, so we’ll see.”
