Countdown to Lockdown
“Give me a call. We may have a unique opportunity for you at Spike TV.”
Hmm. Spike TV. Home of TNA — Total Nonstop Action — the place I’d almost called home three years earlier, before Vince McMahon had made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. I had worked for Fishman (or Fish, as we’ll now refer to him) several years earlier, as the host of Robot Wars, back when Spike was The New TNN. Perhaps in life, you sometimes really do reap what you sow, as I had thoroughly enjoyed my time at the Robot helm an...d had apparently been easy to work with. Word has it that several of the crew members enjoyed my unique perspectives on life — made over the course of several days when I didn’t know my microphone was still on.
I wonder, still really sometimes wonder, what I would have said to Fish if that call had come just a few days earlier. I believe it would have been a simple and friendly “Thanks, but no thanks,” before heading back to the job I loved, the job I honestly felt would be mine for the next several years.MoreLess
