Tommy Dreamer has a new blog on the WWE Universe site where he addresses several internet rumors. Here's some of what he wrote:
1.Tommy Dreamer will be retiring after his contract expires.
When I first made my speech I never said the words retire. Go back and replay it if you want, the words never came out of my mouth. I am not Brett Farve, Floyd Mayweather or my mentor Terry Funk. When I say the words retire, I am gone for good. No comebacks, no matches just gonna sit back and relax. I am way to young to call it quits. Plus with the economy the way it is I will have to be wrestling somewhere when I am deep into my seventies.
2.WWE and Tommy Dreamer have come to terms with a new contract.
WWE offered me a new contract about a month before I made my speech. WWE offered me a three year deal which was great. I have no problems with WWE. I spoke to Vince McMahon and told him my feelings and career aspirations and he fully supported them. I am a man that has to set goals and is responsible for my actions. I am not one to hang around and collect a paycheck. I did this to prove something to the fans and to myself.
3.Tommy Dreamer will be going to Raw or Smackdown after his contract expires as a loop hole to his speech.
I love wrestling on both of those shows whenever possible but to put it very bluntly. If I don't accomplish my goal I am gone from WWE, just like I said.
4. Tommy Dreamer will be going to TNA
I have close relationships with many of their wrestlers. I have nothing but great things to say about Dixie Carter. I have tons of respect for Jeff Jarrett for what he did in WWE as well as for taking a risk in starting your own company (been there it is so hard). I watch every week because I am a huge wrestling fan and enjoy the show. I am just seeing my journey to the end. Good or bad.
