Shanky on his time at the WWE Performance Center

The Indian behemoth spent some time at the WWE Performance Center before making it to the main roster. He recently spoke with eWrestlingNews and opened up about his time at the training facility:

“We have the best coaches at the Performance Center, those that been in the wrestling industry for years and have achieved quite a lot. Our day consists of two hours each of ring training and gym training in the mornings. We also work a lot on our promo skills. We are shown old matches to learn and grasp from them, The Undertaker for instance. It’s a video class, so to speak. We are taught every aspect of how to learn and grow in the industry. We spend 7-8 hours daily training in a variety of ways and departments.” [H/T eWrestlingNews]

In the latter half of his tweet, the popular star hinted that he has something in store for the fans. Only time will tell what's next for him now that he's no longer with WWE.
