I don't know if you can tell but I'm from over in the UK, somewhere you wrestled for Impact last year in Manchester, how did you enjoy working in the UK, or did you enjoy it?

One more time. The accent is throwing me off over the phone. Say again. If I could read lips, we'd be fine, but I can't read lips over the phone so I can't understand.

So, I'm from the UK...

Scotland, England, Ireland...?

Scotland.

I'm about to make my debut... Well, my return to Scotland after 10 years, I'll be wrestling for ICW at one of the biggest shows of the year at the beginning of November, so maybe I'll see you there.

Haha, yeah, man! I've got that question coming up.

Do you see how good I am at this interview thing? I know how to hit bullet points, I know how to segue into the next thing and touch on everything we want to talk about. I'm really good at this professional wrestling thing.


Well, you mentioned you're coming back to Glasgow, that's my hometown and I can't wait to see you there.

You're making ICW debut at what is definitely the biggest Scottish show every year, arguably the biggest British show of the year every year. You're debuting at it against BT Gunn. How much are you looking forward to wrestling in Scotland again and what played into your decision to come to ICW?

The first time I ever went to Scotland, I went for an All-Star tour and I actually wrestled Drew McDonald and Jack Jester in Loch Ness.

This time, I'm coming back to wrestle BT Gunn, who I've wrestled before and he chopped me harder than any other human being on the planet. The way I see this going, this is going to be a fight and the way I also see it is me coming over as Impact World Champion and defending that belt on the line against anyone doesn't matter if it's BT Gunn or anybody else on the ICW roster.


One final question. We've spoken about that there, you're wrestling in the UK, you want to defend the Impact World Championship once you win it to any and all comers.

If you could wrestle anywhere in the world against anyone in the world, defending the championship, who would you choose and where would you choose to do it?

Me versus Terry Funk in Japan for the King of the Death Matches, in an Exploding Landmine Deathmatch over a lake.
