IMPACT Wrestling star Rich Swann believes in the power of human interaction
Rich Swann believes that sometimes, on the internet, things can turn a little toxic:
"The way I like to conduct myself and meet my people is human interaction.", explained Swann. "That's how I get all my bookings. That's how I meet all my fans. That's how I'm able to gauge what's out there. I love my fans. I love every single thing about them. If it wasn't for the fans, none of us would be able to do this. But that's what makes it that much more special to me, when I get to meet them in person."
The IMPACT Wrestling star also feels that there's a benefit to not being too accessible:
"I feel like there's a certain aura about somebody when you just can't get to them like that. I would have loved to be sending messages back and forth with Bret 'The Hitman' Hart and Steve Austin when I was a kid and seeing what they were doing every day. It just leaves up for that imagination," said Rich Swann.
