I said, well, I can accelerate the plan, or, I could keep the plan as it is, do a couple more of these (Netflix shows) and own the space (for the wrestling promotion), which I believe right now is the plan I&#8217;m going to execute. I have a commercial realtor that I know and love. She&#8217;s already looking at potential properties for me. I would love to have a full-time home for this. The plan was originally a two year plan, now I should have the money for a three year plan. Meaning, it doesn&#8217;t have to make money for three years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Prinze Jr. did not announce a roster or promotion name during the reveal. He also did not announced an official launch date for the promotion either. In the interview, he did say he&#8217;d like to have a two-hour show and a distribution deal of some kind.<\/p>\n<p>Prinze Jr. is a former writer for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WWE\">WWE<\/a>. He worked in that role for two stints with the company. First, from 2008-2009 and then again from 2010-2012.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>CATCH-UP:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2022\/05\/04\/c-m-punk-responds-to-roe-vs-wade-reports\/\">C.M.
