Frankie Kazarian who is also a former AEW World Tag Team Champion recently spoke on IMPACT’s Press Pass Conference Call where he talked about his Elite Hunter persona and revealed that it was something he did not choose. He said;
“That was basically born out of…I did not pick the name, or ever endorse the name. It is just something they said and it stuck, but that’s a whole other podcast. That was based on anger and aggression, how me and Christopher Daniels as a team was ended because of outside interference. It was basically ‘This time I’m out for blood, I’m out for myself.’
“I kind of changed my in-ring style after that. A little bit harder-hitting, and a little bit more aggressive. A lot of that character is still in Frankie Kazarian going forward in terms of attitude and in terms of in-ring style.
“Kind of what you got know is kind of a hybrid of the character that Frankie Kazarian was early on in IMPACT and what I became at the end of our tag run with myself and Christopher Daniels in SCU. It’s helped me a lot in terms of creating a new persona and freshening up a little bit, and creating a character that is ready to be the singles-guy in IMPACT Wrestling.”
