Billy Corgan is now the creative director at a wrestling company

by Nicole Villeneuve

For your end-of-day WTF: Billy Corgan, long-time wrestling fan, is now working with a wrestling promotional company called Resistance Pro. He’s their creative director. Let’s let him speak for himself:

“My job in Resistance Pro is to write the angles and set the tone for the future vision of the company,” he says. “I grew up a fan of professional wrestling during the glory years of the AWA. When I got fully into being a professional musician in my late teens, I stopped watching wrestling until I was drawn back by the Attitude Era, and my personal connection to ECW. I’ve gotten to know and befriend some of the greatest minds in the wrestling business, and I’ve learned a lot about the incredible sacrifices that everyone makes to entertain the fans. The opportunity to be a part of a different kind of independent company in Resistance Pro was just too good for me to pass up.”
