James Drake comments on the Grizzled Young Veterans' TNA debut.
James Drake and Zack Gibson, collectively known as the Grizzled Young Veterans, made their TNA debut at TNA Hard To Kill. They competed in a four-way match for the TNA World Tag Team Championship, and ABC (Ace Austin and Chris Bey) won the match to retain the gold.
On January 16, James Drake took to Twitter/X and shared his thoughts on making his TNA debut. He stated that he could not put into words how much it meant to him. Drake shared a picture of himself holding a ticket to a show that TNA held in Liverpool back in 2008 to show how special the match was to him. He wrote that life was good, and it would continue to be good.
Drake told everyone to chase their dreams before he issued a warning to the TNA roster.
You only live once.

I can't put into words how much this meant to me.
Life is good.
Life will continue to be good.
If you've got dreams, chase them. You owe it to yourself. @IMPACTWRESTLING roster...

TNA subsequently announced that the Grizzled Young Veterans will face Eric Young and Frankie Kazarian on the January 18 episode of TNA IMPACT.
Drake and Gibson are former NXT UK Champions. They entered free agency in October 2023 after they previously requested their WWE release, which was denied.
