Dragon Gate USA Vice President Gabe Sapolsky blogs about upcoming DGUSA and EVOLVE events, being fired from ROH, and an important conversation he had with Bryan Danielson
Jan 14, 2010 - 04:19 PM


Dragon Gate USA Vice President Gabe Sapolsky released a new blog on his My Space page promoting upcoming events from his two promotions, Dragon Gate USA and EVOLVE. He also spoke candidly about how he felt about ROH and being fired from that company.

"...I was fired and excommunicated. My creation, my life, my baby was yanked away from me in the back room of a New Jersey ice rink without even a conversation. A few hours later, I pulled off the first exit from the Walt Whitman bridge as fireworks filled the sky signaling the Phillies had won in dramatic fashion. I felt a fleeting moment of joy and then reality squashed it. I had no idea what my future was. I had no idea what I was going to do. I had no idea how I would pay my mortgage."

He recalled an important conversation he had with former ROH Champion Bryan Danielson. "I remembered a conversation I had with Bryan Danielson about six months before that fateful, nightmarish evening in Edison, NJ. We had talked about how we had pushed the limits in this company as far as it could go. There wasn't any new ground to cover. We had done it all. The conversation ended with Bryan saying, "I wish we could just blow it up and start from scratch."

Twill's Two Cents: Another interesting read, especially for older ROH fans, DG USA fans, and those excited about the upcoming EVOLVE promotion.
