Alex Kane recently appeared as a guest on the Turnbuckle Tavern podcast for an in-depth interview covering all things pro wrestling.
During the discussion, the MLW National Openweight Champion spoke about how emotional he got when he finally signed his MLW contract, his experiences in NXT and more.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the interview.
On his experiences in NXT: "It was cool being able to be there at NXT [for extra work] but like, it was way too… yeah, it was way too buttoned up. There was literally like no time to really relax or whatever and enjoy being there. It was just too… it was too stiff. With NXT, you’re sitting in this college auditorium, like classroom type deal watching the show so being able to see what they do during commercial break, that’s when they get all their curse words out which is funny. On-screen, they have a lot of fun but just being around all the other superstars and stuff, it almost — when I was there, I almost had this feeling of like, either they don’t give a damn that you’re here or they think they’re better than you or whatever and it’s just like, ‘Mhm, nah.’"
On how he got emotional after signing with MLW: "I remember after I signed and I was reading it [list of goals he had written down], I started to cry. That was like, ‘I did this.’ I’m getting goosebumps right now but I manifested this. I made this happen. I put in the work and I made this happen."
