Gordon Carlson released an interview over social media late last night. Over the past few weeks, Gus Arnold has been kind enough to share in the progression of some of the athletes that he has 'hand picked' to work with during the COVID-19 quarantine. The topic was broached about the Canadian Heritage Championship and how it changed hands in The Gulf Coast Grappling Club, and not in Northern Pro Wrestling. Gus went on record and confirmed that the title switch was legit, and that Gordon Carlson was the New Canadian Heritage Champion. Gus also decided to issue a challenge to the new champion, and invited him and his cousin to his 'Warehouse' in Dartmouth, NS to compete. This video showcases Gordon's current mindset, as he ponders his next move.
The interview started with a close up of the Canadian Heritage Championship.
Gordon started by reminding everyone that he was the only Canadian to hold a Championship in the top 'Canadian' Wrestling Company in North America. Gordon took a 'shot' at Gus Arnold by insinuating that Gus' ought to spend less time luring big name wrestlers from the US and the UK - and should celebrate the fact that he was the Canadian 'Chosen' One.
Carlson continued by stating that his 'disposal' of Gentry McCray was something that needed to be done. Gordon said that he had been holding that particular grudge for nearly a year, and was now finally able to 'bury' Gentry once and for all. Gordon finished his thought by stating that he hoped that Gentry McCray would do everyone a favour and stay in the United Kingdom for the foreseeable future.
Gordon switched gears and immediately shut down the idea of bringing the Canadian Heritage Championship to the Warehouse to defend it against a 'scotsman' like Callum Ross. Gordon said that if he were to do so, he would be jeopardizing the credibility of his reign. Carlson said that by defeating a former World Champion like Gentry McCray - it suggested that he was at the 'top level' in the NAWC, and would only consider worthy challengers. Worthy being the key word, as Gordon said that he doesn't feel that KUMA has done anything to earn any sort of attention from him at this point. While Gordon acknowledged the fact that KUMA has tremendous upside, he wasn't a match up that 'excited' him.
Gordon said that if Kenneth Marshall were truly 100% ready, he ought to ease his way back into the fray before stepping up to the plate. In a dismissive tone, Carlson said that he believed that Marshall had lost a step or two, and if he proved to be worthy of an opportunity, it would be something he would consider at a later date. Carlson argued that there wasn't anything that Gus Arnold could offer him at the 'Warehouse' that would entice him to make the 26 hour drive to Dartmouth. The only match that Gordon Carlson said he was considering, was a contest against former Canadian Commonwealth Champion; Ralph Erickson of Eastern Elite.
Carlson began to gaud Gus into making the match happen somewhere in Ontario, so the two of them could settle their differences. Gordon said that he hoped 'Eastern Elite' would see this, and he went on to make it abundantly clear that they were being targeted. Gordon concluded by saying that he hoped to be entertaining wrestling fans all over North America in the near future, and that it would take a sizeable amount of money for him to reconsider anything that he had just said. Gordon learned forward, and told Gus to put his money where his mouth was, before finishing his statement.
