During his interview with Dark Puroresu Flowsion, All Elite Wrestling commentator and manager Taz shared his thoughts on the recent clash between Hikaru Shida and AEW Women's World Champion Jamie Hayter. Tz also named one of his own dream opponents, and more. Check out the highlights below.
On his influences in professional wrestling:
“My first few years, I had no one as an influence. Didn’t have a ton of guidance through my early years in my journey. But in the early 90’s, Kevin Sullivan was someone who really taught and helped me a lot. We were a team in Japan in maybe 1991 or 1992 for WING. Then in early ECW worked together.”
On the singles clash between Hikaru Shida and Jamie Hayter:
“Hayter & Shida I have much respect for. I knew as soon as I saw their names as opponents, it would be an awesome match. But [they] are very hard workers. They are ‘themselves’ individually, not trying to play wrestler. I respect that.”
On The Great Mjuta:
“Great Muta and I have never wrestled one on one. In my prime, I would’ve enjoy[ed] battling against him. He is a great one for sure.”
