- Alex Shelley has taken him and Nick Wayne under his wing. Says Shelley gives advice in wrestler and in life and calls him one of the most influential wrestlers of all time.
- Doesn’t take much downtime from wrestling, but does enjoy looking at how music is made. Said Snoop Dogg had the best frog splash of all time.
- Excited to see his opponent for Joey Janela’s Spring Break, “I saw Kota Ibushi was announced.” Feels its a lighter WrestleMania weekend for independent promotions compared to previous years where it was “overpacked.”
- Wasn’t supposed to wrestle Speedball Mike Bailey at Spring Break 2022, but was put in the match after PCO got injured. They put the match together in about 3 minutes. Says Speedball is on another level and wrestling him made him feel like “this is how you wrestle.”
- Got his first booking through KC Navarro. Second match was a tag team match against Koko B Ware.
- Wants to wrestle Kazuchika Okada. Was afraid to wrestle Jonathan Gresham, “I was afraid he would expose me.”
- Hopes he and Nick Wayne can face Motor City Machine Guns. Says Shelley promised MCMG were coming to Atlantic City.
- Had a great experience in Japan. BURIES RIBERA STEAKHOUSE
- Wrestling in Hammerstein was great, “minus PCO almost breaking my neck.” Hopes they return and he’s able to work a singles match.
