Christian Cage On Being A World Champion, Fans In Chicago, His Future, More

SLAM Wrestling has a new interview now online with Christian Cage promoting this weekend’s Bound For Glory pay-per-view. Below are some of the notable quotes:

On being a World Champion: “When you’re the champion… it shows that the company has the trust in you to be the face of the company, to represent it, and to be the measuring stick by which everybody else is compared. You become the centrepiece of the company.”

Regarding fans in Chicago: “I think Chicago fans are comparable to those in Toronto, in that they really get into the shows. They really support the talent and have an appreciation that (we’re) there to entertain them, and they let you know what they like and don’t like, and that’s what it’s all about… They feel more attached to it, rather than when they just watch it at home like a soap opera or a sitcom every week.”

His future: “I’m going to keep (wrestling) as long as I can stay healthy — knock on wood, I’ve never had a major serious injury. After that, I would definitely love to pass on to younger guys whatever I’ve learned, whether it’s with promos or announcing or training. It feels good to be in a position to be able to help guys out, and especially guys who have a hunger to learn and to step up and want to go far in the business — it’s humbling, but it’s nice.”

“Beyond that, I’ve always said that I would do it until it wasn’t fun anymore. Once it became like a real job, maybe then it will be time to hang it up and do something else. But when you’re walking into the ring every day and still say to yourself that you love your job, then there’s no reason to quit.”
