John "Bradshaw" Layfield did an interview with a spots website which mainly focuses on wrestling shortly after the news about his new company broke out. Here is what he had to say. Quote: Matt Keewee: "John, just nine days ago you were working for the World Wrestling Entertainment, and now you are involved in a completely different wrestling company. What was your motivation?"
John Layfield: "I explained my intentions in full before I ever left the WWE. I wanted to help out at Meredith Whitney LLC, I wanted to get more involved with Layfield Energy and I wanted to help out Ohio Valley Wrestling. I have chosen to do so in both commentating for Viper Fight League, another company of Dave's, and starting World Class Pro Wrestling."
Matt Keewee: "So this is just a side project, you have to intentions on competing with any other wrestling orginization?"
John Layfield: "Well, I wouldn't say that."
Matt Keewee: "So are planning, in some way, on competing with the WWE?"
John Layfield: "Back story first, Matt. With Danny's intentions fully in mind, I asked him what exactly he wanted me to do with this project, if anything. He said to me, 'John, I think you should stick it to TNA'. WWE employed me for thirteen years, nine of them relatively unsuccessful, and they kept their confidence in me. I would never go head-to-head with WWE. Hell, I probably won't go head to head with TNA, but when I think 'stick it to TNA', I think about all of the lost opportunities they've had in ignoring what brought them to the dance."
Matt Keewee: "The X-Division?"
John Layfield: "Exactly."
Matt Keewee: "Are you saying want to establish an X-Division at your WCPW?"
John Layfield: "Rather the wrestlers who made the X-Division. Think about it, Matt. The X-Division was so popular because it was innovative...and not Russo innovative either. Taking their idea would defeat the purpose of sticking it to them, because I'd be rehashing, much like they are."
Matt Keewee: "So you're saying that you want to look into former TNA talent."
John Layfield: "I want to look into any talent that has talent."
Matt Keewee: "Alright, John, we about done. But one more thing...you gonna wrestle?"
John Layfield: "Matt, I'm promoter now, you know how that works. We'll have to wait and see."
| John Layfield seemed very nice in the interview, and relatively witty. He mentioned, as he left the table that he was going to be hiring a roster over the next 4-7 days.
