In a recent interview with the AEW Unrestricted podcast, Prince Nana discussed several topics, including receiving a phonecall to re-form The Embassy for All Elite Wrestling and Ring Of Honor Wrestling.

“One of my executive producers, his name is Gizzy G, and we were having a business meeting that morning, kind of going over what the plans were for wrestling this year and moving on, we were doing it early, we were going through those things, I had just gotten back from Los Angeles, doing some independent dates out there and I don’t want to say that I was thinking to myself, is it time to hang it up, I don’t want to say that, but I was more contemplating, what more can I do to give back as much as I can to the wrestling business without seeming selfish.

Being on TV is an opportunity, it’s not something everyone gets, I wanted to make sure I gave back in some way. We were having our discussion, it’s probably 1:30 or 2 O’Clock in the afternoon, I’ve been to AEW shows in the past, because I have a ton of friends who supported me and they know I support the product. Boom, I got a text from out of nowhere from one of the executive producers at AEW, are you local, are you in the area, we’re having a situation where you can ‘purchase’ something from us. We had a little discussion, and next thing you know, Prince Nana has a lot of money, money is not an issue.

Prince Nana was in Boston, Massachusetts, we got the Tully Blanchard situation out of the way, he’s a great legend that I respect and there is nobody’s shoes that I would like to fill more than Tully Blanchard’s. Everything that I did in the wrestling business came together on one day, July 23rd, and I’ll always remember that day and the people involved. I met Tony Khan that day, I’ve met him before, but I met him again that day, what a great meeting we had, the shrimp cocktails that night, they had the big juicy ones.”
