About Mustafa Ali and More Ahead of Their Championship Match
This Sunday at Rebellion
GREENFIELD, Indiana, April 15, 2024 – This past Friday,
Michael Weaver, Jr. had the opportunity to interview Jake
Something. Jake is on the Total Nonstop Action Wrestling
(TNA Wrestling) roster and currently is the number one
contender for the TNA X Division Championship. Jake will
challenge the TNA X Division Champion Mustafa Ali this
Saturday, April 20 at TNA Rebellion.
Jake spoke on a number of topics ranging from his childhood,
his name, Mustafa Ali, the TNA X Division Championship and
more.
Here's a few quotes from the interview:
JAKE SOMETHING ON HIS UPCOMING TNA X DIVISION TITLE MATCH...
"I'm excited. Nervous, but in a way where I'm just like, I
want it to be now. [laughs] I want to get there. But I'm
excited, you know, very [excited]."
JAKE SOMETHING ON SIGNING HIS CONTRACT WITH IMPACT
WRESTLING...
"It meant everything. Actually, I have that contract framed
in my office. It meant a lot to me."
JAKE SOMETHING ON JAKE SOMETHING...
"So Jake Something is actually who I've been for a long
time. So really that [Changing his name to Jake Something.]
was becoming who I am. The changes were anything prior to
that."
JAKE SOMETHING ON WHY HE'S JAKE SOMETHING...
"No, I'm like, I don't think names matter that much. You
know? There's a lot of people, like when I broke into
wrestling, you were kinda told you needed a good fancy name.
Or you needed a name that sounds tough. Or sounds this or
that cause that's an image you have to portray. But a lot
of times I'm seeing these people that have these nicknames,
like Bruiser, or whatever, not Bruiser Brody because he's
awesome, but like today's day and age where these people
have these tough sounding nicknames, and they're not tough.
(laughs) You know? So a lot of these people NEED a name to
bolster themselves up and I don't need that. So I can take
any basic word and make it mean everything."
Don’t forget, you can watch Jake Something challenge TNA X
Division Champion Mustafa Ali for the TNA X Division
