New AEW TNT Champion Powerhouse Hobbs appeared on the Deuce and Mo program to talk about a variety of topics such as the things he has learned in All Elite Wrestling since he was signed to the promotion, including learning to become patient and knowing what he can do to make people boo him or cheer him.
Powerhouse Hobbs said:
“That I’m patient. That I actually love what I do. I’ve become obsessed with this. Knowing my ability, knowing that I can perform. Knowing what I can do to make people boo me or cheer me. I’ve learned a whole lot about myself.”
Powerhouse Hobbs also talked about how he has reached out to a lot of veterans and agents to ask them for advice.
Powerhouse Hobbs said:
“There are a lot of our vets that I hit up, like Dean Malenko, Chris Jericho, Arn Anderson. A lot of our agents I hit up. Pat Buck, Sonjay Dutt, I ask these guys for advice. ‘What should I do, what should I be looking for, how can I switch this or change that?’ I have everything I need in the palm of my hand, it’s just up to me to capitalize on it. I’m not satisfied where I am, I’m not. My goal is to become the first African American World Champion in AEW. That’s the goal I’ve had since I inked my name on the piece of paper. I’ve dreamt about it, as a kid, being a world champion. I have people looking up to me. It’s something that I want to accomplish and I have to get better. I have to do it for me and my family. It’s something that I’ve been becoming obsessed with.”
