Dani Luna talks signing with TNA.
In December 2023, it was announced that Dani Luna had signed a contract with TNA Wrestling. Luna has quickly made a name for herself in the company, as she already picked up a singles win over Killer Kelly. Luna also competed in the Knockouts Ultimate X match at Hard To Kill in January.
While speaking to Women's Wrestling Talk for a new interview, Luna talked about how she has to talk herself down when wrestling for TNA, due to the fact that she's working for a major company for the first time in years.
“Yeah, it was crazy. Like you said, I got hurt and I was out for a year but other than that, I’ve just been wrestling nonstop. After I left WWE, I had a year straight of just stressing on the independents. [Signing with TNA] felt like a big deal, but cause I had so much wrestling reps in me, it’s easy for me to talk to myself and go, ‘Well, it’s easy, you do this all the time.’ You’ve kinda have to talk yourself down like that because it can be such a big scary thing, so you kinda have to reason with yourself and be like, no, you do this all the time, it’s just a bigger camera and more expensive cameras filming you, the rest of it is fine."
Luna went on to praise the company for having the trust to sign her and put her on Hard To Kill, the first pay-per-view of the new TNA era.
"It was really nice, obviously I had done all of that stuff with IMPACT before I was signed, so it was great to have that kind of trust in me to sign me and obviously have me on Hard To Kill, the first TNA pay-per-view in a long time. It felt like a big step up in the right direction for me and a really nice way to get a lot of eyes on me that hadn’t necessarily been on me before, a lot of my career is based in the UK, so it felt like a big jump into a huge pool being out in America where there’s so many more people watching.”
