Scott

He's the ECW Original who always seemed to have a problem. Now, as one of TNA's young producers, he's putting together house shows that no one seems to have a problem with. That's right. In a One Hour Shoot Interview, TNA Producer Pat "Simon Diamond" Kenney joins ClubWWI.com.

Pat not only gives listeners the straight story on TNA's backstage planning process, but so much more. From dealing with critics to Internet complaints to the youth that the company puts in the producer position, Kenney addresses them all. But it doesn't end there. He also talks about his entire wrestling career including backstage in the original ECW, the Extreme Horsemen in MLW, and The Diamonds in the Rough in TNA.

It's a discussion that appeals to old school fans and new viewers alike. Simon says....you definitely don't want to miss this one.
