was all there well massive congratulations like you mentioned you've come so far since I remember those wcpw days when you when you wrest Ricochet and now you and Ricochet are in the same organization which is absolutely incredible everyone wants to see that dream match I mean look yeah dude so do I I mean man's got to work for it though like do you know what I mean there's a long list of people that he's going to have to beat before he can call out the International Champion but honestly mate it's been man honestly I think it's been eight years since that best of Super Junior match and we've both gone in our separate uh directions we've both done well but like now he's under this microscope and maybe just maybe I just took I just called him out all those times just to see if he's got any bollocks and he's shown up right he's showing up so I'd like to see what he's going to be doing here in a I'm excited and I'm really really happy for him he's a pretty good friend of yours pretty good I mean he's all right I don't mind him [ __ ] s me S me pricking he I love him I stole my question but um M oh look at you how are you feeling you good good how are you my I'm doing Dad Uncle melts is over here what we got was that your question Dave yeah how it doing all right thanks so so so as far as like a you what are your goals now for the championship and um I was going to ask like what the Ricochet match the best Super Juniors match how do you feel that that changed the trajectory of your career uh excitement for the championship just because there is like so many challenges that I could easily do and once again that this Championship knows no borders it can be to defended anywhere so I am open and I'm willing to travel wherever our Partnerships lie and test myself as best and best wrestlers in the world uh and about the trajectory of the Rick sh match that happened um mate it put under a microscope that I don't think I was ready for because like as a 20 as a 23 back then I think I was like yeah I was I was 23 back then and it was the first time I was a part of like a real wrestling company do you know what I mean I was just grafting away at the Indies and not that like the Indies aren't real companies but there's like there's so much to it there's like the promotional side of things and then when that blew up and then I had like it was it was the marmar of pro wrestling right it was just like you either loved it or you haed it and for me it was just a case of like this is a learning experience for me it's it's to take all this on board like all this criticism all this love here's where I could have done better here's where I could have gone worse taking all that on board and then learning from other people like the one thing I'll always say right this the Ricochet match done wonders for me right but that was just what we would do in pwg that was what we would do uh in rev Pro and then when it was this kind of like a long line I done that and then they just went all right get in the ring with shabbar and I was like oh hell got be the piss out of me and like it's taking that match then wrestling shabbar and taking that match the wrestling arder and taking that match then wrestling Kenny and taking that match to wrestling to kestra and taking that match to wrestling Danielson to taking that match and then taking Max I'm constantly evolving and those that beginning step I'll never forget those days when I wrestled Ricochet and my life kind of change from there hi Will first of all congratulations I'm hor Sera with luch Libra online and so mjf when he was the champion he goes he comes over here to to London and then to Mexico City and I saw you on Twitter well x that you are interested too to go to Mexico so right now that you are the champion it's possible to see you like giving the same opportunity as mjf to the Mexican luchadors uh honestly I've been thinking about it a lot right I have stayed away from Mexico just

that I've gone over there like Michael oku told me he had the best time of his life Zach told me that it was the best time so like it's getting to the point now and then I saw that tweet and it was

growing up he was one of the when I was a kid I watched him the first show I ever went to where you will be that's a very good segue my problem with earthquake is when I was eight years old as a little boy the first wrestling show I ever went to it'll be the arena we go to this Wednesday in Champagne Illinois I get to show you the hometown where I first grew up watching wrestling as a little boy the first wrestling show my dad ever took me to I watched uh earthquakes kill a snake squash a snake and so he's a bad guy and that's why so but uh and that was a first show ever Tony be honest with me do you suffer any trauma like is there any moments where you flush back and just go that man he at snake Burgers man it was that good but yeah no like yeah it's Wembley Stadium Tokyo Dome Madison Square Garden and Arena Mexico the only one I haven't done is Arena Mexico and everyone's been saying high things about it so I think it's time for me to pop on over yeah let's go I love that I love that love that hi Will from I'm not too bad now thank you uh West me examiner here just wanted to say your entrance it was quite a spectacle H Assassin's Creed themed obviously uh I just wanted to know how that came together with you and even Ubisoft if they were involved um yeah so my mate farbod is just sitting over there right he's the ultimate linkup artist mate he's I just put the microphone in my mouth bit weird um but uh he's the ultimate link up man and uh for wrestle Kingdom we was able to do like uh the the Jack the Ripper one from Assassin's Creed Syndicate was able to link me up with Ubisoft and uh he done a great number on them for social media and like promoting wise and that wasn't like the current game that they had it was mirage at that time and then it got back to Ubisoft and they were like dude like we've got Shadows coming up which the concept with shadows is going to be in Japan this time around and I spent eight years of my life growing up in Japan and Assassin's Creed is generally I can't make this up when I was growing up when I was training they were like attach yourself to something that fans can attach themselves to right and I loved Assassin's Creed all my friends loved Assassin's Creed so I made it my gimmick the aial Assassin so in a weird way it paved the way for me so I can grow and do all this and then when it was able to link together it was just like the perfect scenario so like honestly thank you so much Ubisoft thank you Assassin's Creed thanks to all the break dancers and the uh the gymnasts as well that were doing all the tricks for me as well cuz maner as well just created one of my favorite moments of my entire life just I'm I'm a legit assassin now man like I'm actually a part of the games like do you know what I mean like there isn't a limit to this anymore like we could even do like a toy we could actually do like an action figure of the Assassin's Creed stuff honestly I'd love to be like a downloadable character as well like honestly there isn't any limits anymore with this maybe even my own game there we go Assassin's Creed Billy we'll take two more questions for well hi Will Harry sailor from the times um I think sitting in front of us we can see one I think one of the most authentic people in wrestling I mean Dynamite on Wednesday I never thought I'd hear the word Sil it bang on a promo for an American wrestling company and I don't know T if you want to ship it as well how easy has it been or how hard has it been sometimes to say true to yourself and to be yourself on you know on and off um in and out of the ring uh and to be willos breaks I think you know what you see in front of us is what you get this is probably what you like mate like I can only apologize I'm a bit of a knobbed sometimes I can't turn it off like it's just one of those things where I I'm just I am who I am now and like I do have a little bit of a naughty side but I just I am who I am and I can't change it but like yeah man I just wanted to there's so much going on in our country right now that really scares me and I am just a little bit like oh God I hope everyone's okay so I just wanted to be a bit a bit of Joy so the moment I was just thinking I got to clean up your mess and I was thinking in my head I was like what like there has to be something to this and then I just fought of Barry Scott and I just was like I wonder if they'll know and when they all said it I was oh mate this UK crowd honestly like next year we're obviously doing like forbidden door right in London 2025 same is it the same day 25th of August 202 24th yeah bank holiday yeah there is no reason right after seeing that Cardiff we should just do a tour in the UK just because there is just mate
