AEW star Daniel Garcia spoke with Fightful on a number of topics, including the history Buffallo, New York has with creating talents in pro wrestling.
Garcia said, “Buffalo is a tough city to be in. That’s the thing about these cities that are cold and there is not a lot going on. We have to have something to look forward to. That’s why we go so hard for these sports teams, even when they stink, and why we go so hard for random things. Whenever wrestling comes to Buffalo, it always does really well. People are looking for something to do and they’re looking for a distraction. I feel that’s what sports and wrestling is in cities like Buffalo where it’s like, ‘We need something to root for and something to keep our minds off the cold and to entertain us. Why not wrestle? Why not the Bills even though they lost 13 games this year?’”
