Impact star Eric Young on pandemic, paying for fans hockey tickets and UK future
Eric Young has done it all – a stellar wrestling career at Impact Wrestling, where he has been a two-time world champion, tag team champion and held more gold besides, the former head of the Sanity! Faction with whom he won tag championships, and host of his own show on the Animal Planet channel.It has been a challenging few years for Young, who said that despite being an optimist, wrestling in front of no fans was challenging.Speaking exclusively to the Daily Star at the Park Plaza, Westminster Bridge, London, he said: “Wrestling in front of no fans is awful, awful, just awful but that’s what we did to keep the lights on."I’m a part of this fraternity, this really unique group of men and women that wrestled in front of nobody – that’s never happened, and I hope it never happens again.“I could have done without that accolade, but it is cool to say you did it, you experienced it.“If I do interviews 25 years from now – people will still be asking what was that like?“It seems so fresh right now but it’s so foreign.
