During his recent chat with Wrestling Shoot Interviews, Impact Wrestling's own Heath reflected on his first WrestleMania match.
Heath, who competed in WWE as Heath Slater from 2006 to 2020, also shared his reaction to the time constraints placed on his WrestleMania 27 eight-man tag team match, and so much more.
Check out the highlights below.
On the match being cut short:
“When I did everything my first Mania. Rey Mysterio and Cody Rhodes went like 10 minutes over. We had an eight-man tag, it was The Corre against [Big] Show, Kane, Santino and Kofi. And as soon as the bell rung, I mean, there was Santino and they turned around, looked at me and said, “Go home.”
On his reaction to the news:
“I said, ‘Hold on, what?’ They’re like, ‘Go home.’ And Tino had this whole spot, we all had this 15-minute match planned, you know? And next thing you know man, after four entrances, five entrances, 75 yards to the ring — that takes up seven minutes, you know? Next thing you know man, ‘Go home, man.’ I kicked Santino right in his damn gut. He’s like, ‘What the hell?’ I said, ‘Bro, do your comeback.’ That happened my first ‘Mania.”
