Former WWE star EC3 has explained what went wrong with the Control Your Narrative brand.
Following runs in WWE, TNA and ROH, EC3 started the Control Your Narrative promotion.
However, plans for the brand were somewhat derailed when WWE re-signed Braun Strowman and Karrion Kross.
Speaking with Bill Pritchard of WrestleZone, EC3 noted that his vision for CYN got lost and corruption.
He said:
“Control Your Narrative, my idea and presentation through Free The Narrative and what it was going to become got lost, lost in a disarray of misinformation and unnecessary online banter. My vision was been corrupted, and that is because I allowed my vision to be in the hands of honestly other people at times. I too may have been blinded and corrupted by the fact that, with what we had, that maybe something, we could expedite the process. I never wanted to be a promotion or the three-letter brand, but then all of a sudden, we kind of were positioned as one due to a streaming television deal and a possibility of live tours and things like that. But it all got lost in the concept and the idea.”
The former TNA Heavyweight Champion continued on to describe what he is calling “The Great Rebrand” for CYN, saying:
“The Great Rebrand is basically, I don’t know, people say the great reset, so I thought it’d be funny to say the Great Rebrand. But at the same time, if my vision initially didn’t work, it’s my vision and my responsibility and my accountability and all eyes on me. So what I did, I don’t feel is gonna work properly. What I’m going to do, with a clear vision and the experience behind it? That is in fact the Great Rebrand. It might not be so great as far as visual and a different concept, but it’s bringing true intention to what I wanted to do and seeing it through.”
EC3 and the CYN stars have been appearing on NWA television as of late, hinting at a partnership with the two promotions.
As previously reported, CYN issued a statement on Braun Strowman’s WWE return following his reemergence.
