Will Francine Sign with Wrestling Society X?
The rumor mill has been churning overtime with news that MTV’s new wrestling promotion, Wrestling Society X, is extremely interested in Francine Fournier. Last week, the popup heavy wrestling gossip sites (not linked to protect your computer and mine) reported that WSX was actively pursuing ECW alums Francine, Dawn Marie, and Missy Hyatt, as well as Shannon Spruill (aka Daffney from WCW).
Francine put speculation about her involvement to rest today by generously sharing the details of her talks with WSX. She revealed that WSX execs wanted her to fly to California for discussions this month, but while she appreciates the offer, she turned them down and will remain retired from full time professional wrestling. Francine plans to get married soon and confided, “I want to eventually start a family and just be ‘normal’ again.”
Francine may not be appearing on MTV any time soon, but she did share that the cable channel’s new wrestling promotion reminds her of old school ECW. “Now there is something worth watching on Tuesday nights,” she quipped.
As for the other divas reportedly being wooed by WSX, Francine’s one-time ECW rival Dawn Marie is said to have turned down an opportunity to introduce the musical acts on WSX. So far no word on whether Missy Hyatt and Daffney (both of whom appear with Francine on MissyHyatt.net) are engaged in talks with MTV or WSX.
