Tony Savage and UGWC came to terms on a contact extension on Saturday, turning his 1 year previous deal into 2.
Savage, 32, commented on the deal, obviously very excited about his extended tour of duty with the U.
"I don't know how much longer I have in wrestling; I don't plan on being in it past 40. The company's been great to me, been great to OCW thanks to them hosting our district, and the reception I've received has truly been wonderful. I'm thriving here, and I'm thankful that after a bad turn in my life, this company has been key in my revitalization. I like it here, and hopefully I'll end my career later down the line with UGWC."
Tony was asked about allegations he was "disloyal" to the company and self serving.
"I'm not tribalistic nor insular. The U is the primary company I wrestle for, but this is a new era. So many opportunities for expansion and exposure nowadays, in my opinion, it'd be foolishness all around not to exploit those avenues.What myself and some others in this locker room are doing outside the company is not just for their benefit, but the company as well."
"Pro wrestling is a business, not UNICEF. The more fans and contacts exposed to the brand means more bread on all our tables. More talent interested in our product.If me being aggressive and honest in the fact I don't do things out of the kindness of my heart or blind fidelity chafes a few asses, then so be it."
"Let them sit at home and whine I'm making side bacon. Doesn't seem to stop them from grabbing a bite off the plate."
Tony is currently the #1 contender for the Chaos championship, as well as considered one of the hot commodities across the entire industry. What the next 18 months hold for him, who knows. But this contract extension was a shot across the bow to pundits proclaiming him a cancer that needs to leave.
"Not going anywhere for at least 18 more months besides my other jobs. Those that don't like me here, you stay on your side, and I'll stay on mine. Just fair warming.."
"Like my wallet, my side will probably be greener than yours."*winks*
