can you guys put to rest the whole hand shaking thing and what the truth behind that rumor was

u/NickJacksonYB Feb 27 '14
We didn't shake Booker T's hand but we didn't because as soon as we got to the building they had us get right to the ring for a try out so we really didn't even have time to meet anyone. But as soon as we started wrestling I over heard Booker over by the announce table burying us. "These guys look terrible, They'll never make it, they're way to small to be wrestlers". Anyway, after I heard him say all that there was a situation where I was by a guardrail and I guess I was leaning on his coat. He comes up to me and starts yelling " you're on my coat sucka! Get off my coat sucka". I apologize and say sorry but he screams a little longer in makes his way out to make his entrance.

Thanks, guys! That was fun. Sorry for the slow responses, I did this all with my left hand. (My right hand is currently in a cast.) To make matters worse, I was finishing up my last question and I dropped my iPhone - the screen just shattered! So, I need to go to Apple ASAP. Thanks again! Oh, buy a shirt, will ya?

What does Kevin Steen smell like? And can you teach me how to superkick?

I seen you at Border Wars 2012, the fans were jeering you with "knock-off Hardyz" chants, and you guys just rolled with it putting up the "V1" hand taunt, which got the crowd behind you. I forget my question.

One of the things many wrestlers hate doing, is making fun of yourself. If you can laugh at yourself, they'll laugh with you.

u/NickJacksonYB Feb 27 '14
I actually remember that and I think it's flattering every time someone compares us to millionaires like the hardy's. They were a fantastic tag team!

How did you join Bullet Club? Did Prince Devitt wanted you in?

He and Karl have known us for years. Our personalities fit perfect. It's weird how we're all the same: personalities, sense of humor, amazing in-ring performers, etc.

We've been friends with Karl Anderson for over 6 years so he had a part in getting us in the club.

What's your best Super Dragon story?

u/MattJackson13 Feb 27 '14
When we were set to wrestle he and Steen, there was a ton of hype. Everywhere we went, people asked us if we were ready for the beating of our lives that Dragon/Steen would give us. We kinda marked out a bit and believed the hype. I remember being scared and amped before we hit the curtain. I remember thinking, "This is gonna be a war!" About 5 minutes into the match, I kicked Dragon in the back. I remember him lying back afterward and saying, "That's it. I'm done. I can't get up." Haha. I was so hyped up, I must've kicked him as hard as I could. Eventually he got up, but had a hard time moving. That was the first thing he mentioned afterward. I watched it back, and I look like a madman. Ha!

funny story....we wrestled him in his return match in a guerrilla warfare setting against him and Kevin Steen. Literally the first minute of the match he throws this wild chair which directly hits me in the jaw. I couldn't even believe how much pain I was in but he felt so bad the next minute he hands me a chair and says "Get your receipt". Safe to say I got em back haha.

Who's idea was it to get Steen in one of those crazy 'FUCK' outfits at ASW X? You need to get those at your merch table stat (only half joking)
