The 32-year-old was supposed to battle Naomi for the Women's World Championship at Clash in Paris, but the match was canceled.

Naomi relinquished the title in August after it was revealed that she was pregnant with her husband, Jimmy Uso. Vaquer won the Women's World Championship by defeating IYO SKY at WWE Wrestlepalooza.

Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling's Bill Apter in an exclusive interview, Ivar noted that he admired the athletic style of smaller wrestlers, such as Shawn Michaels, and wanted to replicate it, despite being a larger competitor.

"For me, growing up, I was always a big fan of the smaller guys, the 1-2-3 Kids, the Aldo Montoyas, all the little guys. Marty Jannetty. I loved Aldo when I was a kid. No one did, I did. I was the one. But all those underdogs, I loved them. Even Shawn, too, Shawn Michaels, smaller guy, high-flyer, those were the guys I loved. So, when I started training to be a pro wrestler, even though I was big, that's how I wanted to wrestle, so that's how I trained. So, the whole time I was training, I was trying to learn how to do those things," he said.
