Jeanie Buss discusses her role in Women Of Wrestling.
The re-launch of WOW, also known as Women Of Wrestling, is set to take place on Sept 17. The show will air in over a dozen syndication markets nationwide, while also being distributed internationally in places like Canada, Australia, and Indonesia.
In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, WOW owner Jeanie Buss discussed her role in the promotion and revealed that it's not her day-to-day priority.
"It’s very different, certainly I’m not working on WOW day-to-day. I’m the investor, it’s my personal funds, I’m a fan of WOW, but it’s not my day job. My day job is with the Lakers and that’s where I am day-to-day. They’re very similar, but they’re very different, meaning that we’re dealing with larger-than-life personalities in both; we have to deal with the day-to-day reality that they’re athletes, and with athletes comes injuries. You hope for health and well-being, and you do your best in training but sometimes it’s inevitable. You have to figure out how to solve the problems that an injury might bring up, so they’re very similar, but different. And I enjoy both of them."
In an interview back in August, Buss revealed that she believes WOW will find the female equivalent of The Rock or John Cena. To review her comments in full, click here.
