Longtime DEFIANCE Manager to Take Leave of Absence
Posted by Lance Warner on 29 Apr 2022
Longtime DEFIANCE manager Eddie Dante has announced that he is taking an indefinite leave of absence from DEFIANCE Wrestling, citing “personal and family reasons.”
“I won’t go into details,” the former DEFIANCE world trios tag team champion and manager for The Dangerous Mix of David Fox and Mushigihara told sources, “but right now there are some matters that require my attention and cannot wait. Therefore, I must put my commitments in DEFIANCE on the back burner, and hope that I will come back stronger and sharper than ever.”
When asked if he was worried his absence would affect the success of The Dangerous Mix, Dante quipped “absolutely not. Did you see that battle royal? They did perfectly fine without me, and David’s BEEN a good talker, so I know he’ll do fine as the mouthpiece. I wouldn’t have left them like that if I wasn’t absolutely sure they’d succeed. It’s just up to them, now.”
Dante did not give any word on how long he would be away, but he was absolutely adamant that “this isn’t the end” of him in DEFIANCE.
