About.com has an interview with wrestling legend Terry Funk and he makes an interesting quote calling TNA "WWE's Graveyard." When asked about TNA, Funk said: "They are kind of looked at as the graveyard, you know. I mentioned that to some people and I don't want to keep on calling them the graveyard because I really don't want to tag that to them. But it is. It is kind of like the WWE's graveyard. And, I'm not talking about the guys. They’re old, they’re this or they’re that or can’t get the job done. They can but it has got a definite pattern to it. It’s where somebody goes ahead and leaves the WWE and they wind up down there. Boom, just that quick. I think that they need to develop their own talent along with that. Does that make sense to you?" Funk also added: "I'm not knocking the talent that they’ve got, they’ve got great talent. But it's got a constant repetition that is like over, and over, and over. I'm not saying that those guys can't get the job done, because they can. But they need to work on developing their own talent and their own individuals also. Spend more time on that." Funk also talks about why he wouldn't charge someone interested in joining the wrestling business, the difference between cutting a wrestling promo & movie dialogue, his most memorable Mick Foley road story, and more.
