Deaner On Formation Of The Design: Myself, Angels, & Kon Have Never Been The Main Focus, Now We Are

Deaner discusses the connection between members of The Design.

Back on December 1, 2022, Violent By Design member Deaner stabbed Eric Young and effectively wrote him off of IMPACT Wrestling TV. Since getting rid of Young in a brutal fashion, Deaner has taken over as the leader of the group, which has renamed to The Design. Alongside Angels and Von, Deaner is currently leading the charge to recruit Sami Callihan to the faction as well.

In a new interview with Wrestlingnews.co, Deaner talked about the formation of the group and how they all have the same chip on their shoulder as performers.

“Well, I mean, you don’t get to choose to be a part of The Design. The Design chooses you and right now, the chosen few are myself, Angels, and Kon. There’s a common thread with us, even though it might seem like ‘What’s the connection with these guys? They’re like a mismatch of guys that don’t fully understand their connection’ The common thread with all of us as wrestlers is that we all have a chip on our shoulder and it’s the same chip. Kon, has been in a team element before, but has never been given the focus and the opportunity to [be the focus and star of it]. He’s never had that opportunity and he’s so talented and he hasn’t been given a chance to show the world how talented he is. Angels, the exact same. He’s got so much potential and so much talent, but he’s never been made the focus of what he’s doing in a faction or a group. Myself included, I’ve always done things where I’m not the main focus of what’s happening. I’ve never been given that opportunity. Now, we all are. I’m telling y’all, we are gonna make it good. Not just good, we are gonna make it great. We got some really cool fun stuff planned that people are going to be seeing over the coming weeks with The Design.”

As previously mentioned, Sami Callihan will continue the process of joining The Design on the January 12 episode of IMPACT Wrestling. To see the updated lineup for Thursday’s show, click here.
