Summary
A.J. Francis, a TNA wrestling star, will take on Leon Slater for the X Division Championship. Francis hopes Slater wins against Cedric Alexander so he can take the title off him later. He claims to be the “biggest heel” in TNA and the wrestling industry, citing his ability to get booed by fans.
Our Reading
The game followed a familiar script.
Francis has been talking trash for months, and it seems like no one can get under his skin. He’s convinced he’s the best heel in the business, and his confidence is almost admirable. Almost.
He’s got a track record of getting booed, and it seems like he’s milking it for all it’s worth. And yet, you can’t help but respect his dedication to being a heel.
Francis is so convinced of his own greatness that he’s willing to say anything to get under people’s skin. And it’s working.
This one feels recognizable early, with Francis already talking smack about his upcoming match against KC Navarro.
Francis’s claim that he’s the ultimate provider and the best big man in the business is enough to make you roll your eyes, but it’s hard to deny his passion and conviction.
