You possibly can take a look at some highlights from the interview below:
On WWE’s next breakout stars: “For my part, the primary one can be Trick Williams. His entrance, you possibly can see everyone standing. The fans are already connecting with him. The charisma, the dimensions. He just looks like a stud, an athlete. I mean, have a look at him.”
“A bit of bias, Bron Breakker, given he’s a second-generation talent, he was out on injury. When he got here back, he made, definitely an impact at WrestleMania, and facing Seth, who’s considered one of the greats of my generation. I definitely think those two, Trick Williams and Bron Breakker, are definitely breakout stars in the following couple of years.”
On Asuka vs. IYO SKY: “This isn’t because I’m biased in regards to the women, but definitely IYO SKY versus Asuka. I even have numerous history with Asuka. I ended her undefeated streak. I’ve had the chance to face IYO multiple times. They’re each international superstars, I feel. Given the time and the story that they’ve, they may potentially steal the show, and I even have little doubt that they are going to, and that’s just not me saying it as a girl just praising a female match, they’re that talented, and so they have a special style, you possibly can see with their entrances, and likewise the story, if people return, IYO And Asuka were in Damage CTRL for the last two years led by Bayley. I feel they’re gonna do a hell of a job.”
