He said that this year was going to be very different because he had mended all the holes that he had. He said that he had prepared for Edgar specifically and that while Edgar thought he would be able to take Jung down, that was no longer the case.

“I used to tape all of my training sessions, and when I watched them all I saw all the holes I have. This year is going to be completely different. All the holes have been mended. Our coaches brought in wrestlers who were of similar build and style as Frankie, so I was practicing with a lot of collegiate wrestlers. After we trained and sparred, my coaches and partners told me I'd have no problem facing Frankie. Frankie says that he can take me down, but he won't be able to do it. I'm pretty confident I'll come out with the win.”

With the current level of preparation he has, The Korean Zombie's victory seems assured! He will be facing Edgar in his home country of South Korea, where the support is sure to bolster him even further.
