WrestleZone just wrapped an exclusive interview with “The Progressive Liberal” Daniel Richards that will air on tomorrow’s episode of WZ Daily.
During Richards’ appearance he confirmed that several national media outlets will be covering his match tomorrow night for Appalachian Mountain Wrestling.
The WZ Daily will be made available tomorrow at Noon-ish EST on Eric Bischoff’s IRWNetwork.com!
You can find his comments regarding the media coverage transcribed below.
On the national media attention that his character has garnered:
PL: Let me tell you who is coming to the event tomorrow. This is JUST tomorrow’s event. Tomorrow we have BBC America coming, VICE News from HBO, CNN just confirmed, Deadspin will be there and they are the ones that deserve a lot of credit for the exposure I am getting. They were the first ones to take The Progressive Liberal national with that story they launched on Monday. We’ve got CBS that will be there. All the local television. Tomorrow is a lot bigger than we were anticipating last week.
On what will be happening at the show tomorrow night:
PL: First of all they are going to be exposed to the best independent wrestling promotion in eastern Kentucky, Appalachian Mountain Wrestling. I believe that it may be in the country, honestly. This isn’t some backyard promotion or fan boys wanting to paint their faces up and play pro wrestler. These are grown men. They are former college athletes and have a love for professional wrestling and do it quite well. We’ve got guys that have been on the national scene before and this is putting us on the map on another level. I am so excited.
