Mark Suleymanov of Inquisitr.com recently spoke with former TNA superstar and current GFW superstar Sonjay Dutt, and the following are some interview highlights:

His start with TNA:

“When I first came into Nashville at the Fairgrounds on a Wednesday night, I was like 20 years old and I thought I would be there for the next two weeks, maybe one week – and it turned into six-and-a-half years straight,” said Dutt. “It afforded me a life and a lifestyle I would never thought I’d have in pro wrestling, it afforded me the opportunity to support myself, and then, later on, my wife and my family, which is the most important thing for me.”

Relationship with Jeff Jarrett:

“It’s awesome because Jeff and I first met in 2002, I think, when I first came into TNA and gave me a huge opportunity, an opportunity that I didn’t think was anything more than a couple of weeks and turned into more than 10 years working on-and-off with the company. All of his various other projects, he and I worked together on Ring-Ka-King which we developed and created for India. It’s cool learning a different side of the business, especially through somebody like Jeff. I guess at this point, he’s kinda like a mentor to me.”

Why talent enjoys working for GFW:

“I think we’re not micromanaging people. At the end of the day, if you’re chosen to represent Global Force and you’re on a Global Force show, you’re on a TV taping or you’re on a live event, there’s a reason you were chosen for that spot and put in that position. If you weren’t able to hold up your end, you wouldn’t be on that show. So why would I micromanage that person? Why would I nitpick that person?”
