Moose explains why winning the TNA World Heavyweight Championship for the second time was more memorable than his first title win.
Moose previously won the IMPACT World Championship by beating Josh Alexander in an impromptu match at Bound For Glory 2021. He recently won the TNA World Championship by defeating Alex Shelley at TNA Hard To Kill 2024.
In an interview with Denise Salcedo, Moose commented on winning the world title. He noted that winning the gold for the second time was even more memorable than the beginning of his first reign.
“It feels great. It’s rare in people’s careers when the second title reign is more memorable than the first one,” Moose said. “Usually, when you ask people the most memorable title they’ve won, it’s usually the first title they’ve ever won. In this case, for me, it’s the second title run. Nothing against [Josh Alexander], he’s a great athlete and great professional, probably one of the greatest out there, but if you look at the way I won it against Josh versus how I won it this past weekend.”
Moose: My Second Title Reign Was Bigger Than The First
Moose continued by stating that his second title win was more memorable than the first. He explained that it came on a show that marked the buzzworthy rebrand for TNA. Moose then highlighted the size of the crowd and his place in the main event.
“First of all, we’re going into a rebrand with probably the biggest moment in TNA history, switching from IMPACT Wrestling back to TNA,” Moose said. “Second of all, this was the biggest crowd we’ve performed in front of in the last eight to ten years, over 2,000 people, and then I was in the main event of our first-ever pay-per-view of the rebrand…and then winning it.
“I mean, it’s like I said, it’s rare the second time is bigger than the first one, and for me, the second round was definitely more memorable and bigger than the first time I won the title.”
