Lance Storm Says Part Of Him Is Glad He Never Had To Compete In An Ultimate X Match

Lance Storm speaks on if he would have liked to feature in an Ultimate X match in TNA during his in ring career.

The Ultimate X match has been a staple of TNA over the years, with the X-Division being a large part of the matches over the year. However, many talent have not featured in the bout for one reason or another.

While speaking to Love Wrestling in a new interview, Lance Storm was asked if he would have liked to feature as part of an Ultimate X match during his in ring career.

“Part of me is glad I never had to, but there is a part of me, if I remember back to my 20s and 30s, I think I would have really enjoyed it.”

Lance would also speak about what it’s like to produce Ultimate X matches.

“Well, I think as a producer, I’ve always wanted to do it a step removed. I used this actually in another interview. It’s like, I see the job as more an editor, not as the one producing, so to speak. Like you want everyone to have their style of match, not my style of match. So to me, just my 36 years experience, it’s like, I might be, well, what about this? Or can we do this? But it’s like, I want Trey Miguel to have a Trey Miguel match. I want Jason Hotch to be Jason Hotch. I don’t want them to be me. I don’t want anyone to be watching a match that I produce and think, oh, that’s a Lance Storm match. Because it’s not. They’re the ones doing the work. They’re the ones that need to have an understanding of who they are and how to present themselves. I just, as a producer, well, let’s make sure we get a good camera shot of this. Let’s make sure this is where it needs to be, and you can do production producing and agent production editing would be my way of saying it. But again, when it gets to, you know, X division scramble matches, it’s like, you’ve got to trust the guys that have been doing”
