Freddie Prinze Jr. confirms he made an offer to Bray Wyatt to join his upstart promotion.
During the latest episode of Wrestling with Freddie, former WWE writer Freddie Prinze Jr. provided an update on where he is at with developing his own wrestling promotion.
“So I’m still moving forward. I have a finished draft, a finished script. I have two producers that are both interested in wanting to partner up with me on this. I don’t have a TV deal in place, but I have very close to that.” He continued, “I hate announcing a deal before there’s ink on paper, because until there’s ink on paper, your script is nothing. Your federation is nothing. It’s just an idea. I have a script in place that people have been incredibly receptive to, and I’m working on filling out a roster. I have a female in place that a lot of people know and love.”
After a moment of hesitation, Freddie Prinze Jr. confirmed that he did make an offer to Bray Wyatt to join the project.
“Everybody knows that I love Bray, and it was basically reported that I was the one that made the offer. And sure, I’ll confirm that. I’ve put out an offer there, and I think it’s a creative offer. Financially, I wouldn’t be able to compete with the WWE, but I’ve put other things in there that I think are important to Bray. I don’t think I’m gonna get it as the weeks go on, but we’ll see. You never know. And If I don’t, then I’ll shift gears again. It’s a speed bump in the road and I’ll find the next person to rework the story to make it work for that. But whoever my main guy is, that’s who this s gonna revolve around on the wrestling half of things.”
Fightful Select previously reported that Bray Wyatt had a “standing offer” from “startup wrestling company,” and it was believed to be from Prinze Jr. It was also noted that Prinze Jr. had Karrion Kross planned for the project before he returned to WWE in August.
