MIKE SANTANA COMMENTS ON STEVE MACLIN MATCH STOPPAGE

TNA Champion Mike Santana tweeted:

"Needed some time to myself before speaking on this… Every time I’m getting ready to head out for a match, I always find a corner and take a moment to myself. I kneel and pray to God to protect me and my opponent. To watch over us as we head out to give the fans an escape and something worth what they pay their hard earned money for. But as we all know, freak accidents happen that are sometimes out of our control and in the moment. That’s the unfortunate reality of what we do. All we can do is learn from it and take preventative measures moving forward, so that we can avoid making the same mistakes. I will say, I’m truly proud of how TNA handled the situation. And even more proud of referee Alice Lane. Her elite professionalism and quick thinking saved us. We were truly blessed to have had her out there with us. I’m glad that Steve is safe and doing well. He’s one of the toughest guys I know and someone I’ve considered a close friend for a long time. At the end of the day, our health and well-being come first and we showed exactly that. Thank you everyone."
