Zach Gowan starred in a famous feud with Brock Lesnar that involved the WWE alumni being ‘thrown’ down the stairs.
Speaking with Steve Fall on “The Ten Count” podcast, Gowan recalled Lesnar throwing him down a staircase as part of a segment.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On moments that wouldn’t work in today’s TV landscape: “I think about the match that I had with Brock Lesnar, that was one of the most violent, bloody matches in WWE history.”
On his famous fall down the stairs: “They brought in a stunt double to take that particular fall, down the stairs tied to a wheelchair. This guy looked just like me except he had two feet. … Right before we cut, Vince asked me if I wanted to take the bump. And I looked at him and I said, ‘Are you crazy?’”
Kevin Knight and KUSHIDA are jointly making efforts to capture the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Titles, and Knight recently discussed their newfound partnership in an interview with NJPW.
Kevin Knight and KUSHIDA will challenge Francesco Akira & TJP for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Titles at Road to Wrestling Dontaku on April 27th.
You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On his teaming with KUSHIDA: “Well, it caught me by surprise a little bit. At first Clark Connors and I were talking about teaming… you see what happened, now he’s in BULLET CLUB, so I think that ship has sailed. But when KUSHIDA suggested that we team, I had so many ideas, and I knew that we would work well instantly, He’s always made me feel comfortable, always good to me.”
On finding himself in the team: “You know, when you’re a Young Lion it’s all pith and vinegar, just straight fire. I was wrestling the whole time thinking of (Katsuyori) Shibata’s voice in my head going ‘go, go, go.’ There was no time to take a breath and express myself as a personality. Now I have a boost of confidence and take some time to show the people who I am. I can’t wait to see how much it grows from here on out.”
