Christopher Daniels looks to make an “Impact” at Lockdown

It’s been five months since “The Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels and Kazarian (collectively known as Bad Influence) lost the Total Nonstop Action World Tag Team Championship to Chavo Guerrero and Hernandez. Though Daniels and Kazarian have remained in each other’s corners, they’ve focused on their singles careers since losing the tag titles. But at Lockdown Bad Influence finally gets a shot at regaining the belts in a three-way match that includes Guerrero and Hernandez as well as the current champs Bobby Roode and Austin Aries. With Lockdown shaping up to be one of TNA’s biggest pay-per-views to date, and TNA taking Impact Wrestling live on the road beginning March 14, Daniels is one of many members of the company’s roster who is ready to help take TNA to the next level in the wrestling world. As he prepares for his Lockdown match and leaving the Impact Zone, Daniels is a bit more serious (but no less confident) than usual as he takes a moment to talk to Wrestling with Pop Culture.

You’re going into Lockdown with a little bit of momentum, given that you, Kazarian and Gail Kim defeated Chavo Guerrero, Hernandez and Velvet Sky. What are your expectations for your three-way tag team match for the TNA Tag Team Championship?

As much as I respect Chavo and Shawn, and as much as I respect Bobby and Austin, we’re really the best team of the three. So it’s just a matter of playing to our strengths. We’ve been together longer, we’ve got better chemistry than either one of those teams, so we’re really just going in there with the mindset that we’re going to walk out with the Tag Team Championship again.

Lockdown is, of course, the first pay-per-view for TNA since scaling back to only four pay-per-views a year. And it’s being held at the Alamodome, which is a much larger venue than TNA is used to. Do you know how well tickets have sold?

Dixie Carter announced on Twitter that Lockdown will have the highest attendance for us in the United States. It’s going to be bigger than Slammiversary, which was a big deal for us last year in Arlington. So Lockdown could very well end up being our most-attended event in TNA history.

The following Thursday will be the first live Impact Wrestling event outside of the Impact Zone, so these are exciting times for TNA.

We’re all really excited. I think changing from 12 pay-per-views a year to four live pay-per-views gives us an opportunity to build up to things at a slower pace, and it gives everybody an opportunity to catch up with all the goings-on and hopefully build more anticipation for some of these top matches. With Impact going live on the road there’s more energy because there are new fans. After a while, we’ve been playing to kind of the same crowd at the Impact Zone and it’s gotten harder and harder to excite that crowd. So going out on the road and seeing new fans every week, this will be the first time a lot of them are seeing TNA’s television product live. We, as wrestlers, feed off the energy of the crowd, you’re definitely going to see us step up our game and put on more energized matches, which will help the product improve.

When Impact has been on the road in the past, whether it was being taped in Europe or at arenas in the U.S., it’s had a much bigger feel than it does in the Impact Zone. So I’m looking forward to seeing how that translates when you do that live from different venues.

A lot of that has to do with the fact that we’re in actual arenas rather than just a sound stage; there’s more space, there’s room for more fans and it’s more of an arena atmosphere. But, like I said, it also lends itself to the energy of the crowd. For a lot of these people we’re going to go see in Chicago, Jonesboro, Arkansas and the other dates that have been announced, this will be the first time that we’ve ever done television there. So there’s definitely going to be a newness to the audience coming to see us and that’s going to translate into excitement and energy and we feed off of that as performers.

For those who have been to live Impact tapings or even TNA house shows, how will these live Impact shows on the road compare to what we’ve seen previously?

It’s definitely a different vibe. Our live events are very exciting, but all we are interested in at that point is entertaining the crowd that’s in that building. On television, however, we’re playing to the cameras and the crowd. So we want to entertain the people watching at home, but we’re also interested in entertaining the people that are right there in front of us. We use that crowd that’s in front of us to translate that energy to the fans watching at home. So if we can get those people pumped up about the product, you can’t help but watch it at home and think, ‘This is really exciting, compelling television to be watching.”

As you’ve pointed out previously, you’ve been with TNA off-and-on since its inception. Having been so loyal to the company, and now being integral to its growth, would you rather continue to help take TNA to new heights or, were the opportunity to arise, do you ever see yourself going to WWE?

I’ve always said I’d never say “never” in terms of WWE, but I have to be honest and look at how long I’ve been doing this and how old I am now and look at WWE’s hiring practices at this point. I just don’t think we would be a good fit for each other. But the truth of the matter is I’m very happy with Impact Wrestling right now. It’s been very good to me and I feel like right now I’m doing some of the best work of my career. The creative team has been very supportive with all the stuff I’ve been doing with Bad Influence. They’ve put a lot of effort behind us, so I feel very loyal to the company in that respect. Right now we’re just scratching the surface of what we can do as a team and what we can do as a top-tier act. My immediate goals are to continue being the best tag team not only in Impact Wrestling, but in professional wrestling overall, and helping make Impact grow as we go on the road and try and build these television markets and make our television show more and more acceptable to the wrestling fan base.

Now that you will be on the road more, are there any particular cities you’re looking forward to wrestling for?

Courtesy TNA Impact Wrestling/Lee South

As a California guy I’m very partial to going out to the West Coast and doing some shows there. I don’t think Impact has had as much impact, so to speak, on the West Coast as we could. I look forward to maybe going to Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and cities around there. A return to Las Vegas would be great. I know that a long time ago we taped out there and with this particular crew in charge I think we’ll do a lot better if we return to Las Vegas. We need to go back to the Northeast, as well, because there’s a very strong, hardcore wrestling fan base there that would support our television show. No matter where we go, it’s going to be an opportunity to build on this momentum that we’ve gotten in the last couple of months. When I talk to Frankie, we’re in the groove right now, we’re firing on all cylinders and I feel like we’ve become one of the more entertaining parts of our television show. I’m just going to keep riding that horse.

Win or lose on Sunday, who are some other tag teams you’d like to face in the near future?

We’re open for business, man. The good thing about me and Frankie is we’ve brought a lot more attention to our tag team scene. That was one of the reasons that Chavo Guerrero specifically came to TNA was the opportunity to tag with Shawn against me and Frankie. But I love to see guys like the Young Bucks, who have performed with TNA in the past, come back to TNA and get involved with us in a long-term feud. In the last year we’ve wrestled guys like Kurt [Angle] and AJ [Styles], Kurt and Ken Anderson, Rob Van Dam, so anyone on the roster now that wants to put a team together is welcome to step up to us.

The Miz goes from WWE superstar to action movie star in “The Marine 3: Homefront”

1 Reply

Jake (The Miz) is a Marine returning home in "The Marine 3: Homefront".

For someone who got his start in the entertainment industry on The Real World, Mike “The Miz” Mizanin has come along way since debuting in WWE. He’s gone from Tough Enough competitor to WrestleMania main eventer, having held almost every title in WWE including the coveted WWE Championship. This week, The Miz adds another accolade to his resume as he stars in WWE Studios‘ The Marine 3: Homefront, arguably the best installment in The Marine franchise thus far. Just days after the film’s Blu-ray/DVD release, The Miz talks to Wrestling with Pop Culture about his transition to acting, his hopes for WrestleMania and his recent endorsement by “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair.

You transitioned from The Real World to WWE and now you’re starring in your first film. What has that experience been like for you?

It’s incredible. I sit here and look back on my life and I’m like, “Oh, my God. Look at all this stuff you’ve done.” It all started with The Real World. If I had never made it onto The Real World, I don’t think any of this would have been possible. So I always thank Bunim/Murray, as well as MTV, because it opened my eyes to say, “You know what? I can do anything I want with my life.” That started with WWE saying I could do this. No matter what anyone said about me not being big enough or I’m not athletic enough, I was like, “Yes, I can.” Now I get the opportunity to star in an action flick where I play with guns, I have fight scenes and there are cool explosions. It’s amazing and surreal that this is my life.

How would you say being a WWE superstar prepared you for being an action movie star?

Jake (The Miz) enjoys time with friends and family, not knowing he will soon be coming to their rescue.

In WWE that’s what we are, we are action stars. We perform in front of 16,000 people each and every night, whether it’s on Raw, SmackDown or WWE live events. We have WrestleMania 29 coming up at MetLife Stadium April 7 where there’s going to be 80,000 to 100,000 people we’re performing in front of. It’s nonstop everyday that we’re in front of a camera, that I’m being The Miz, where I’m this cocky, arrogant, egotistical jerk, I guess you could say. But now, it’s funny, people are actually cheering me. Normally they’d be booing me, but now I’m their cocky, arrogant, egotistical jerk and it’s been fun. You only get one take in WWE; you don’t get five or six or ten takes like you do in movies. Even though there are five, six, ten takes, I only needed one to be quite honest.

You clearly have become more of a fan favorite as of late. What would you attribute that to the most?

I think it’s the time I’ve spent in WWE. Fans are really starting to respect the fact that I’ve built myself up. I didn’t just walk in and all of a sudden be successful. I had to work for it. I think they like people that are hard workers and that’s what they are drawn to.

Ric Flair has recently given you his endorsement, going so far as to pass his figure-four leglock on to you. How does it feel to have someone like that in your corner?

The Miz utilizes his WWE training as an action hero in "The Marine 3: Homefront".

Um, awesome. Whooo! Are you kidding me? In my wildest dreams as a kid you could have never told me that I’d be strutting, having a whoo-off, putting on a figure-four with Ric Flair right there passing it on to me. It’s incredible and surreal. As a kid, whooing and strutting where what I would do. I loved Ric Flair and now him being my friend and mentor, and coming to my corner to help me out, passing on the figure-four to me, it’s incredible and amazing. I mean, he’s a two-time Hall of Famer.

Last year he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame for the second time as a member of the Four Horsemen. If he were to assemble a new Horsemen-like faction, who do you think the other members might be?

Ric Flair, myself, clone another version of myself and clone me again. Then there’d be four of me and I’d be the Four Horsemen of just me.

With The Marine 3 out, the fans behind you and Ric Flair supporting you, you definitely have a lot of momentum going into WrestleMania. Yet you don’t currently have a match scheduled for this big event. Do you have any idea who you might be facing this year?

He may be an arrogant jerk in WWE, but The Miz saves the day in "The Marine 3: Homefront".

People are scared of me, bro. What can I say? But I couldn’t agree with you more. I’m on a roll right now and this WrestleMania is one of the biggest ones we’ll ever have. You’ve got The Rock and [John] Cena in the main event. CM Punk vs. ‘Taker – CM Punk‘s been on a hot streak as of late as one of the longest reigning WWE Champions ever and now he’s going up against the Undertaker in his prime. So that’s going to be an incredible match. [Jack] Swagger vs. Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight Championship…

Now I’m looking for a spot on that card that will give me the opportunity to steal the show, to be the person everyone’s talking about. That’s what I’m looking forward to. Come one, come all. I don’t care who I’m up against, I’m going to win, I’m going to become undefeated once again, I’ll be 4-0 after this year.

Given the positive response The Marine 3 has been getting, do you think you will be doing any more films in the near future?

I’m actually getting ready to start filming another movie that will be on ABC Family during the 25 Days of Christmas called Christmas Bounty.

You were also in a scene in The Campaign with Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis that was cut from the theatrical release. Do you know why it was cut?

I actually had lines in that, but they cut them all so it looks like I’m a featured extra. I was like, “Oh, come on!” But Jay Roach, the director, actually emailed me, which I thought was a tremendous thing because he didn’t have to do that, to say, “Due to time constraints and to move the movie along, we had to cut your scenes.” And that wasn’t a problem. It was cool. It was very, very nice of him to do that. But it was an honor to watch Will Ferrell in action. He’s an incredible actor and I’ve always loved his comedy.

Jeff Hardy prepares for cage match against longtime rival Bully Ray at TNA’s Lockdown

Leave a reply

From his days wrestling alongside his brother Matt as the Hardy Boyz to his ascension to the top of the wrestling ladder (literally and figuratively), Jeff Hardy remains one of the most enigmatically talented men to ever step into the ring. And this Sunday at Lockdown, he faces one of his biggest challenges to date as he defends his Total Nonstop Action World Heavyweight Championship against Bully Ray inside a steel cage. Having recently re-signed with TNA, Hardy hopes to retain his title and continue to be the face of the company as TNA takes Impact Wrestling live on the road beginning next Thursday. As he prepares for this match, as well as the positive changes happening within TNA, Hardy takes a moment to talk to Wrestling with Pop Culture about staying with TNA, getting older and his burgeoning music career.

At Lockdown you defend the TNA title against Bully Ray inside a steel cage. As a veteran, how do prepare for a cage match now in comparison to when you were younger and took a lot more risks in order to make a name for yourself?

My psychology is pretty much the same. I’m not really limited, but I try to work smarter now. I’m excited, man, because it’s a challenge. I’ve had so many great cage matches and ladder matches, so its another challenge for me to top myself. I’m a little more afraid to try big things now [because I have a 2-year-old daughter], but I’m still the same Jeff Hardy.

Now that you’re a little older, is it tougher to recover from some of the things you do in the ring?

Yeah, it’s way tougher now, just being older. But I’m taking extremely good care of myself. I see a chiropractor three days a week, I try to get massages when I can, I ice every part of my body that’s hurting after every match and I work out more than I ever have.

You and Bully have such history going back more than a decade and now you find yourselves going against each other in a pay-per-view main event. How would you say you’ve both grown as performers and what has it been like growing into the stars you’ve become today?

It’s really cool thinking about those TLC matches many years ago between the Dudley Boyz and the Hardy Boyz. To see those old matches and now to see TNA in full effect, the way Jeff Hardy looks, the way Bully Ray looks – he’s possibly in the greatest shape of his life – we’ve both reinvented ourselves over the years. It’s so exciting to be headlining such a huge pay-per-view this Sunday and just still being able to do what we do. It’s really something to be proud of and I can’t wait to see what happens on Sunday.

What do you think you’ll do differently in this match than what you’ve done in the past against someone who knows you better than anyone else in TNA?

What’s going to be different is the unknown effect of any cage match, especially with my mentality. One of my favorite cage matches of all time was against Kurt Angle last year and even coming close to topping that this year is going to be a challenge. But I’m not going to do anything differently unless I have to. I’m going to go out there and just give it my all like I always do.

Given that this is a cage match, do you think that gives an advantage over Bully Ray?

I think so, yeah. Bully’s good with tables, ladders and chairs, but I think I do have the advantage in the cage.

What are some of your favorite moments from your time tagging with your brother Matt?

As a team, there are so many amazing memories. But one of my favorite memories of Matt is when we finally got to wrestle each other at WrestleMania. The finish to that match was one of my favorites of all time. The original Twist of Fate in a chair, that will last with me forever.

This Thursday is the first time Impact airs live outside the Impact Zone. What is it like for you looking back to see how the company has grown? Will it be hard for you to say goodbye to a venue that you did so much work in?

It’s going to be a little heartfelt, but it’s time to get out on the road. But I’m sure we’ll be back in the Impact Zone for a reunion show or something.

TNA wrestlers have often said one of the things they like about TNA is the difference in the schedule. With TNA going on the road, you’re going to be busier. Was that something you considered when you were recently in contract negotiations with TNA?

Being in TNA, there are those times where I get to be at home for a week straight. But March is crazy busy for me. I just like being the alternative, the other place to be and believe in. And 15 years from now, there’s a chance it could reach those WWE heights. Time will tell.

You recently released your first album, Similar Creatures, through TNA Knockout Music. How has that album been received so far? Do you foresee doing something similiar to what Chris Jericho is doing where you pursue wrestling and music at the same time?

I don’t know how the first EP is doing. What I’ve been focused on as far as music goes is my band Peroxwhy?gen. We finished recording last week in Nashville and there are ten songs that are just on a different level as far as me as a singer, lyrically and vocally. I’ve grown so much and I’m really excited about that. Hopefully it will be out around July or August. As far as me wrestling and performing, it’s going to be something unique. I’m not sure what that is yet, but you’ll soon find out.

Given what you talked about earlier about taking fewer risks and having a harder time recovering, as well as your family, your musical project and other endeavors, how much longer do you see yourself wrestling?

I have no idea. It’s always going to be in my blood and I think my body will tell me when I need to stop. Hopefully I’ll be 45, 50 years old and still have a match every now and then. But I don’t know. Time will tell and my body will tell me.

Ashley Bell squares off with The Miz in “The Marine 3: Homefront”

Leave a reply

In The Marine 3: Homefront, the latest installment in WWE Studios‘ Marine franchise, Ashley Bell plays the younger sister of Jake, played by WWE superstar Mike “The Miz” Mizanin. Though this is her first film acting alongside a WWE wrestler, it’s not Bell’s first time working with WWE as she was also the star of last year’s The Day (read my reviews here and here). With her horror sequel The Last Exorcism Part II being released in theaters last Friday and The Marine 3 hitting stores last Tuesday, Bell is a busy actress who clearly has a thing for the horror and action genres. Wrestling with Pop Culture had a chance to talk to her just before she heads to South by Southwest for the premieres of her next two movies.

You must be a busy lady right now with The Last Exorcism Part II coming out last Friday and The Marine 3: Homefront being released four days later.

Yes! It’s been really fun and crazy.

When The Last Exorcism was released in 2010 it did really well. How has the sequel been received so far?

I haven’t heard that much about it. I’ve been in this publicity whirlwind; I was promoting The Last Exorcism and flying around doing local press for it, I was in a Mardi Gras parade, I was at Portland Comic Con, now I’m in New York doing press for The Marine and from New York I fly to Austin for the opening of The Bounceback, which is a romantic comedy I did. It premieres at South by Southwest this Saturday.

The Marine 3 is your second movie for WWE Studios. Did that come about because of your performance in The Day?

I did The Day, which was a post-apocalyptic action film, and that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and WWE acquired it. It was really fun to get to work with them throughout post-production and to do promotion for that. I was at SummerSlam, which was my first ever wrestling event, and it was so much fun. I had a chance to go in the ring with Mike and Wade Barrett, who both couldn’t have been nicer. They were going into production for The Marine and I got a chance to meet with the director, Scott Wiper, and I just loved his take on the story. I read the script and thought it was really compelling and the arguments that Neal McDonough, the villain, has are so crazy because they’re partly true, but then he just goes over the top and takes it too far. When you’re reading the script it’s like, “He does make a point,” then it just goes too far. And I like that character of Lilly. She’s a hostage, but she isn’t a damsel in distress. She fights, she looks for the air holes and I like the spirit she has.

This is also your first time starring in a movie with a WWE superstar, right?

Yes, it is. Mike was amazing, and if I didn’t say that he would body slam me.

But you would say that anyway, right?

Lilly (Ashley Bell) looks for some alone time with her boyfriend (Jeffrey Ballard) before chaos ensues in "The Marine 3: Homefront".

I actually begged him to body slam me but he didn’t because he said it would be very painful. And I do think he’s right about that. But working with Mike was incredible. Here he is playing an American hero, a Marine, and when he was filming he spent so much time working with the troops. I also have spent some time with wounded warriors and when I spent time with former Marines and they found out I was doing The Marine, they said, “Who’s playing the Marine? Is he going to train with real Marines? Is he going to get it right?” Mike actually had real former Marines on set showing him how to hold a gun, showing him how to go through a building, how to de-arm situations. It was really cool to watch that accuracy portrayed.

The Marine 3 is not only your second WWE film, but also your second WWE film with Michael Eklund. You and Eklund had the strongest performances in The Day, and in The Marine you find yourselves once again on opposing sides of the fight. What was it like working with him again?

Michael is an incredible actor. For both scripts, you read that character, then Michael comes to set and brings a completely difference perspective and just electrifies the scene. It’s been great to work with him twice. He’s been a villain in both films we did together.

The Marine 3 is obviously a sequel in a franchise that has also included films starring John Cena and Ted DiBiase and The Last Exorcism Part II is a sequel. Do you foresee there being a sequel to The Day so we can find out what happens to your character?

Lilly (Ashley Bell) welcomes her brother Jake (The Miz) home in "The Marine 3: Homefront".

I do hope for a sequel to The Day. I loved playing that character of Mary. I’d done my own physicality for The Last Exorcism and they said, “You’re going to have to do all your own stunts [for The Day]. You’re going to have to lose weight. You’re going to have to work with a shotgun. You’re going to have to run out of burning buildings in a wet dress in 18-degree weather.” They almost tried to talk me out of it, but I replied back, “You haven’t given me a reason to not do this. This sounds like a dream come true.” I love the character of Mary and I bother the producers and director every couple months to see if there’s a shot of going back to explore that.

Sounds like you don’t mind roughing it up a little bit. Any chance you might consider training to compete in a WWE ring someday?

Oh, I’d get smushed! It was fun to go in the ring for SummerSlam and I like WWE’s films. I like their aesthetic and working with Michael Luisi for The Day, I love that ending, I love the story that the film told, I love the plight of the characters, I love that there were real characters and there was action mixed in with that. With The Marine, this is a fast-paced action movie; it’s cut beautifully, Mike did an incredible job, Neal is remarkable, it’s a fun, entertaining action movie. I grew up watching heroines in action movies, so to be part of this, I really got caught up watching it.

Even though you have no plans to wrestle, given that you’ve enjoyed working with WWE so much on these two films, do you see yourself doing more WWE films? If so, are there any particular superstars you’d like to work with?

What always excites me about a project is the script, especially this time around working with Scott Wiper. If there’s another way to collaborate again, that would be incredible. Being on an action set is a lot of fun. My childhood was spent running around with Nerf guns in the back yard, so to play with grenade launchers and rifles and run around on an abandoned cruise ship was like recess for me. If the right project comes up, that would be great. But I feel like I can’t be anybody but Team Miz. My loyalty is to Mike; he’s my older brother in this film and when he says he’s awesome, he means it.

After this weekend’s premiere of The Bounceback, what else do you have coming out in the near future?

The Bounceback is going to be premiering at South by Southwest as is a film I did called Chasing Shakespeare, which is like a romantic epic. I’m really excited about that film and I’m also stepping behind the camera and directing a documentary called Love and Bananas about the plight of Asian elephants in Cambodia. In Cambodia we were in convoys, had security detail and were up in helicopters going through the jungle, so it was a real-life action movie.
