Speaker 2: the sensation that everybody and their mom has been talking about.

6
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: You can't scroll through social media without seeing this dude's

7
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 2: name mentioned somewhere in some form or fashion. And by

8
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 2: the way, speaking of fashion, he's probably one of the

9
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 2: most fashionable dudes we've ever had on the show.

10
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,080
Speaker 1: Give it up for Leon Slater, Join the show. Leon.

00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,880
Speaker 3: I'm good. I'm glad to be back mine. I'm excited.

13
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 2: Man, it's been a minute since you have been on

14
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 2: the show, So let's dive into this.

15
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: I kind of want to go back to the very beginning.

16
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 2: Normally we don't do these kind of things, but you

17
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:53,320
Speaker 2: debuted at fifteen years old. I couldn't figure out what

18
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 2: I was going to do at fifteen years old. How

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: did that conversation with your parents even sound like that

20
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 2: you're gonna be a professional rest.

21
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 4: So it's funny because that conversation actually started six years

22
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 4: prior when I started training. Like I was lucky enough

23
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 4: that I've been blessed with the most surportant family and

24
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 4: support system I could ever ask far you know what

25
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 4: I'm saying, And I've always had the wrestling bug. Like

26
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 4: I like to tell people, I slid out of the

27
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 4: womb and took a back boot, straight back, you know

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 4: what I'm saying, Like I was born with this, so

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 4: as soon I don't you want to say, as soon

30
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 4: as I was old enough, but like as soon as

31
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 4: I was able to direct myself through Google, I was

32
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,600
Speaker 4: searching wrestling schools and we managed to find one. So

33
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 4: I hit with my first wrestling training session at nine

34
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 4: years old. I was training every single week since that,

35
00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 4: I was doing training shows and then obviously I was

36
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:42,759
Speaker 4: looking enough to make my.

37
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 3: Official debut on the British Indies at fifteen.

38
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: And an incredible career it has been.

39
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,480
Speaker 2: And the fact that you're just twenty one and you're

40
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: just getting started, which is wild. Something else that's really

41
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 2: cool is you've got a background in jiu jitsu. Do

42
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,880
Speaker 2: you still sneak some of that into your matches without

43
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: people realizing it?

44
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 4: You know what, I don't often find myself using it

45
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 4: a lot in matches. I'll be real most of the

46
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 4: time because I'm either open the sky or I'm kicking

47
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 4: someone's head off, or I'm dodging and I'm weaving.

48
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,960
Speaker 3: But I will tell you it's very, very handy to

49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 3: have in the back pocket.

50
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 4: So if anyone wants to get on the ground and

51
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,399
Speaker 4: roll around, I'm them, and I'm there in the full

52
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: gud I'm there in the side control, you know.

53
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 3: I mean, I know how to look after myself.

54
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 4: And it was you know what, it was actually a

55
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 4: big helping factor in I suppose me taking to wrestling

56
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 4: so quickly at such a young age. I did jiu

57
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 4: jitsu for five years when I was in primary school

58
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,399
Speaker 4: or what you guys would call it elementary school home

59
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 4: throughout that time.

60
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 3: So by the time I started training and then they

61
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 3: were trying.

62
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 4: To teach me like bumps and all types of different

63
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 4: throws and stuff, I was like, oh, like, this is

64
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 4: what we did over there, but now there's just ropes

65
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 4: around the mats instead. So it was definitely a massive

66
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 4: helping hand and start in my wrestling. And it's nice

67
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 4: to know that if it comes down to it, the

68
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 4: youngest in charge knows how to look after himself a

69
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 4: little you know.

70
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, maybe he might bust some of those jiu

71
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 2: jitsu moves on Eric young and and just make him

72
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 2: tap out instead.

73
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 3: Of maybe maybe maybe right.

74
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: Now, I gotta ask, because you are the youngest X

75
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 2: Division champion when you go into that room peeking behind

76
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: the curtain and you're like, hey, I want this, I

77
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 2: want the title shot, I want this. Were you nervous

78
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: or did you just go for it and you talk

79
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: to the higher up and say give me this.

80
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 3: I was not nervous at all. Man, I'll be real,

81
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:30,679
Speaker 3: because the X Division was my goal from dad one.

82
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 4: I remember, uh, the first time I told all of

83
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 4: my friends that I got scigned to TNA, I said

84
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 4: to them like, in these exact words, I'm gonna go

85
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 4: there and be this generation's edge Stiles.

86
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do for this company what EDJ did twenty

87
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 3: years ago. You know what I mean.

88
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 4: In the first step on that list was to become

89
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 4: the X Division champion. So I was not shy at all.

90
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 4: Of course, I wanted to get my foot in the door.

91
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 4: I wanted to introduce myself, show them what I'm about

92
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 4: a little before I made the pitch. You gotta be

93
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,680
Speaker 4: a little strategic with it. Now, you know what I mean,

94
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 4: but I was. I was definitely not shy of letting

95
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 4: the powers that know are the powers that be. No,

96
00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 4: that was my goal and I wanted to be the

97
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 4: youngly sex Vision champion of all time. And obviously there

98
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 4: was a lot of tests put on that journey. There

99
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:16,159
Speaker 4: was a lot of obstacles put in my way, but

100
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 4: I managed to conquer all of them and here we are.

101
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

102
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,679
Speaker 2: Absolutely, And of course you talk about that record books

103
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 2: of being the youngest Exavision champion. Somebody previously before you

104
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 2: that held that was Amazing Red, who We've had conversations,

105
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 2: you and I about Amazing Red. Did you ever talk

106
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 2: to Amazing Red about, hey man, I'm gonna break your record,

107
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: but you kind of go to him and talk to

108
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 2: him about it beforehand?

109
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: Or what was his response to it?

110
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 4: So me and Red actually had zero interaction until the

111
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 4: job was already kind of done, you know what I mean.

112
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 4: I remember the first time I met Red was Oh, no,

113
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 4: I lie, Actually I lie. The first time I met

114
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 4: Red was February twenty twenty five at the Jersey Jay Cup.

115
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 4: I suppose our first official meeting, but we didn't really

116
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,280
Speaker 4: have time to chop it up. He was busy doing

117
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 4: his tournament matches. I was busy doing my tournament matches.

118
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 4: You know, everyone's resting two three times a day, so

119
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 4: it's hectic. But the first time that we properly met

120
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,039
Speaker 4: and really had chances to sit down and talk was

121
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 4: actually at Summerversary.

122
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 3: Obviously, it was in New York.

123
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 4: It's in his back guard, and that guy's run New

124
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 4: York for the past twenty years, you know what I'm saying.

125
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 4: So being in his city about to break his record,

126
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna lie like. I was very curious to

127
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 4: how he would take it. But I have nothing but

128
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 4: positive words to say about Red. He's been nothing but

129
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,960
Speaker 4: supportive and nothing but complimentary. I remember telling him actually

130
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 4: before I went out for the match, that I want

131
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 4: to make him proud, because obviously, in my heart and

132
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 4: in my mind, I knew that I was going to win,

133
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 4: and I said, I want to do the record proud,

134
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 4: and I want to do you proud. And he came

135
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 4: to me after the match and he told me that

136
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 4: I did, which was a very very cool thing for me.

137
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 4: And it was so cool that he brought me to

138
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,640
Speaker 4: House of Glory to our last October. Me and him

139
00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 4: had a a singles match for the Exhibition Championship. I

140
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 4: believe it was in his home promotion of House and Glory,

141
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 4: which was again another extremely cool moment for me, not

142
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 4: only walking into that match as the Exhibsion champion, facing

143
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 4: an exhibition legend, but facing the guy that previously held

144
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 4: the record that I broke. So yeah, I have nothing

145
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 4: but positive words to say about amazing, right.

146
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And speaking of legends and positive words, one

147
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 2: of the legends that you've been very linked to here

148
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 2: recently with TNA, Matt Hardy had some very nice things

149
00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,080
Speaker 2: to say about You had your back, so did Jeff.

150
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,839
Speaker 2: What is something that Matt's or Jeff has told you

151
00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 2: that has stuck with you.

152
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 4: That's a difficult one because I've been very, very lucky

153
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 4: to spend a lot of time with Matt and Jeff,

154
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 4: and I've heard them tell a lot of stories over

155
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 4: the past year or so. I've been taught a lot

156
00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 4: of lessons over the past year or so. But I

157
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 4: think the most important thing that they've ever taught me

158
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 4: is that is how to be smart with my body.

159
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. And as a young wrestler

160
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 3: that wrestles my style.

161
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 4: You always hear like veterans and coaches and older people

162
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:15,040
Speaker 4: tell you about this stuff, but it never really hits

163
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,120
Speaker 4: the same because like these people, they haven't done the

164
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 4: stuff that Matt and Jeff have done. And obviously I

165
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 4: try and take something and off everybody. I'm open to

166
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 4: all advice. But when Matt and Jeff Hardy, two people

167
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,239
Speaker 4: that are legendary for falling off things, crashing and burning,

168
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 4: doing these crazy stunts and putting their body at risks

169
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 4: for the past twenty thirty years, and telling you this like,

170
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 4: it means a whole lot more, you know what I'm saying,

171
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 4: And not only that for me as a young wrestler,

172
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 4: like I'm a very, very visual learner. I'm a visual learner.

173
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 4: So you can tell me something and I'll take it

174
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 4: in and I'll listen. But if you show me something,

175
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 4: I'll understand it. I'll be able to replicate it, you

176
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. So it was one thing to

177
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 4: be told, oh, you got to slow down here, you

178
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 4: got to like maybe don't do the cornerpost dive or tonight,

179
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 4: maybe save that for the next week or whatever the

180
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 4: case is. It's one thing to be told that, but

181
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: then when you see how Matt and Jeff were applying

182
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 4: those lessons, like whether it was going through strategy for

183
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 4: the six month tags that we've done, or watching them

184
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 4: kind of strategize and plan for their for their.

185
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 3: Tag title defenses.

186
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, It's been very interesting for

187
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 4: me and it's been an invaluable experience for me to

188
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 4: see how those how those philosophies actually translate into into

189
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 4: the practice of wrestling, you know what I'm saying.

190
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, And you talk about wrestling, and one thing

191
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 2: that's been really awesome is just to watch Leon Slater's

192
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 2: career over the past year. I mean, you've been on TNA,

193
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,679
Speaker 2: you've been on NXT, you're on the indies, You're bounce

194
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 2: between all these different promotions, and obviously everybody has their

195
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 2: own way of doing things.

196
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: How do you reset between all that?

197
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 4: Truth be told, I don't like the past. Like you said,

198
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 4: the past year has really been a crazy one. You

199
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 4: know what it was. I had a sort of an

200
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 4: unlucky turn of events this year, But looking back on it,

201
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 4: I think it was actually very helpful for me, especially

202
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 4: in terms of a reset. Like I'm sure everyone heard

203
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 4: about the visa issues and the passport complications at the

204
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 4: start of this year as to why I had.

205
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 3: To miss some time with TNA.

206
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 4: But that being said, I got to spend like a

207
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 4: solid month and a half at home, which is the

208
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 4: most time that I've spent at home in a long,

209
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 4: long while, you know what I mean. And obviously, as

210
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 4: my indie schedulers started to slow down a little bit,

211
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,280
Speaker 4: as I'm trying to you know, put into practice the

212
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 4: lessons that Matt and Jeffery teaching me about saving my

213
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:36,839
Speaker 4: body and being smart, you know, I've found more time

214
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,559
Speaker 4: to reset. Whereas before I was on the road two

215
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:42,960
Speaker 4: three times a week, I was living in Orlando for

216
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:43,679
Speaker 4: a couple of months.

217
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 3: You know I'm saying, I was here, there, and everywhere.

218
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 4: And don't get me wrong, I was extremely, extremely thankful

219
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 4: for that schedule because I'd rather be too busy than

220
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 4: not busy enough and be wondering where my next booking

221
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 4: is coming from, you know what I'm saying. But I

222
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,800
Speaker 4: think again, like going back to what I was saying

223
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 4: before about my family and my support system, they always

224
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 4: make it super easy for me to reset, whether I'm

225
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 4: at home.

226
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:05,920
Speaker 3: For three hours or three days or three weeks.

227
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 4: Like as soon as I touch bass, whether that's a

228
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,560
Speaker 4: phone call, a fast time, or whether I'm here at

229
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 4: home like I am right now, they always make me

230
00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,800
Speaker 4: feel welcome and they always give me the reset that

231
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 4: I need.

232
00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,120
Speaker 3: So I'm extremely thankful for my family as well.

233
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, for sure. Family obviously a very big important thing.

234
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,679
Speaker 2: And like you said, having a month off obviously did

235
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: wonders for you. You were able to, you know, rest

236
00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 2: your body and not be out there, and it gets

237
00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: you to prolong your career. And you know, speaking of careers,

238
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,640
Speaker 2: I mean again, twenty one years old, you've got legendary

239
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 2: people putting their name out there. For Leon Slater, think

240
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,280
Speaker 2: about it, AJ Styles, the Hardy's Amazing Red just to

241
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 2: name a few.

242
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: Again, does that add pressure.

243
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 2: That you have those legends talking highly about you or

244
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 2: is it more of motivation for you?

245
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:55,920
Speaker 3: I'll be honest, it's neither.

246
00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 4: Like I don't feel the pressure and it's not motivation

247
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 4: because I feel like since they one, since I've started training,

248
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 4: since before that, I've always pictured myself in this position

249
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 4: that I am now and beyond you know what I'm saying,

250
00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 4: Like I pictured myself. I've always said I want to

251
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,720
Speaker 4: be the greatest of all time. I want to complete wrestling.

252
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 4: I want to go everywhere, I want to do everything,

253
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 4: and by the end of it, I want to say

254
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 4: that I'm the best and I've completed it, you know

255
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 4: what I'm saying. So for me, it's not motivation, because

256
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 4: I already have my motivation, you know what I'm saying.

257
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 3: I feel like I'm already on the track that I'm on.

258
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 4: And don't get me wrong, it does spur me on,

259
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 4: like when you hear Jeff Hardy saying you're his favorite wrestler.

260
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,199
Speaker 3: Like it's cool. It's cool, right, get me wrong.

261
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 4: But it's definitely not pressure because I think as I've

262
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 4: grown up and as I've kind of matured, and as

263
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 4: I've had more experience operating on this level, these guys

264
00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 4: kind of go from like idols to my peers. Now,

265
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, which is something I still

266
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 4: have to pinch myself from like every other week that

267
00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 4: I'm calling Jeff Hardy and my Hardi and Nick Namath

268
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 4: just styles my peers.

269
00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:01,600
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.

270
00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 4: Like it's mad, but you have to separate the fanboy

271
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 4: side from like the professional side, you know, what I'm saying.

272
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 4: So when I'm in the locker room, I don't see like,

273
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 4: oh my god, my Ardi, Jeff is matt Is, Jeff

274
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 4: is Nick. You know what I'm saying. So it definitely

275
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 4: means a lot to me to earn the respect from

276
00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 4: my peers and have them, you know, like you said,

277
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 4: put that put their name out on the line for

278
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 4: me and and sing my praises in the media or

279
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 4: on podcasts or and promos. And it's something I'm definitely

280
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 4: taking as a as a positive on my journey here,

281
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 4: you know what I mean.

282
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely.

283
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: And you you mentioned that you want to be the

284
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 2: greatest of all time, which you're on the track record

285
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 2: of doing that, and speaking of another person who's the

286
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 2: greatest of all time, John Cena, And you got to

287
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 2: represent TNA on John Cena's Final Night, which was awesome.

288
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 2: What was that feeling like being able to represent TNA

289
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: on such a big stage.

290
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 3: It was a It was a mad one.

291
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 4: You know, it was really really wild because it was

292
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 4: it almost feels like a dream when I look back

293
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 4: on it, you know what I mean, Like again, I

294
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 4: repeat myself, but I have to pinch myself to confirm

295
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,200
Speaker 4: that was real, you know what I mean, Like let

296
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 4: alone being a WWE superstar and being on that card,

297
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 4: because I think there was far or five matches, So

298
00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 4: if we're talking about spots available, we're talking ten to

299
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 4: fifteen maximum. You know, I'm saying on such an iconic night,

300
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,360
Speaker 4: I like I was saying to my friends and like

301
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,560
Speaker 4: my family, like WrestleMania happens every year, Some Muslam happens

302
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 4: every year, and that doesn't take away from how huge

303
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 4: that is. But there's only one John Cena and there's

304
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 4: only one John Sena retirement rachelle you know what I mean.

305
00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,679
Speaker 4: So the fact that I don't even work there, and

306
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 4: I was on John Sena's last show as the Exhibion Champion,

307
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 4: coming out with it around my neck representing my brand

308
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:47,760
Speaker 4: and my people, it was something that I hold very

309
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 4: very close to my heart, you know what I mean,

310
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 4: And it's something I'm very very very proud of. And

311
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 4: like I said, man, it really doesn't feel real like

312
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 4: that whole day from walking in the building and meeting

313
00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 4: all of these, you know, these main roster superstars that

314
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 4: I've grown up watching, like the the people backstage, it

315
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 4: was a Who's who? K angle was that iv D

316
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 4: was that on the taco was that like everybody to

317
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 4: ever exist? It seemed like was that you know what

318
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 4: I mean. So to be surrounded by that and then

319
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,760
Speaker 4: to have the match that we had and obviously it

320
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 4: was it was a dream come true, especially with it

321
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 4: being Aja and having Javonne and Dragon that as well.

322
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 3: It was. Yeah, it really was. It was the best

323
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 3: tay of my life. Man, I'll be real. It was great.

324
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it was awesome to watch on TV for sure.

325
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 2: And you could just see, like when you're talking about

326
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 2: mentioning all the people backstage, it's like you have to

327
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: forget that, Hey, I'm working and I'm not a fan

328
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 2: in this moment. But it was you know, you mentioned

329
00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 2: RVD by the way, and you've talked about it. You've

330
00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,600
Speaker 2: been vocal that you want to, you know, wrestle against

331
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,000
Speaker 2: RVD and also somebody who you've tagged with, Jeff Hardy.

332
00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 2: Are we any closer to getting maybe a match with

333
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 2: you and RVD, maybe you and Jeff Hardy? And what's

334
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 2: that moment gonna feel like when you step in the

335
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 2: ring and you're face to face with rv D or

336
00:14:59,400 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 2: Jeff Hardy.

337
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 4: I think that that would be the pinnacle of what

338
00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,080
Speaker 4: I suppose we were just talking about, right, like of

339
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,760
Speaker 4: having to shut that fanboy side of me out and

340
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 4: lock in and go to work, you know what I mean.

341
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 4: Like rv D and Jeff were, you know, two of

342
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 4: my top three guys growing up.

343
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,120
Speaker 3: So for me to have a one on one with

344
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 3: either of those.

345
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 4: Guys and Matt, like Matt again is in this conversation

346
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 4: as well. I was lucky enough to tag against Matt

347
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 4: and Jeff with Cedric a couple months back at TNA,

348
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 4: and that was extremely surreal being on the opposite side

349
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 4: of the ring from those guys. So I can't even

350
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 4: imagine what a one on one would look like, you

351
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 4: know what I mean.

352
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 3: And like rv D and Jeff and Matt, all these

353
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,840
Speaker 3: guys are wrestling like they were twenty years ago, you

354
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 3: know what I mean.

355
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 4: Like it's actually pretty terrifying how well these guys are

356
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 4: are aging. They're aging like very very fine wine, if

357
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 4: I do say so myself. And obviously I'm only getting better.

358
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 4: I'm getting bigger, stronger faster as time goes on. So

359
00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 4: I feel like the longer we wait for this, the better.

360
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 3: It's going to be. In the more anticipation it's going

361
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 3: to have when it does happen.

362
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 2: I'm getting ghostbumps just thinking about it, just standing across

363
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 2: the ring, and it's it's Leon and RVD, and it's

364
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 2: Leon versus Jeff and it's Leon.

365
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,280
Speaker 1: Which leads me to the next question.

366
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 2: Because we're always talking about fantasy booking, and last time

367
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: we had you on the show, we all had that

368
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 2: dream match of Leon versus Javon. Well, we got that

369
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,360
Speaker 2: dream match and it was incredible and it was everything

370
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 2: that we expected it to be.

371
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: What's the next dream match now.

372
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 2: That you want to get in the ring with somebody

373
00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,440
Speaker 2: who is currently out there right now.

374
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,760
Speaker 3: That's a real, real tricky question, man.

375
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,080
Speaker 4: I think Javon was the dream match for so long,

376
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 4: and I was so focused on on on getting that match,

377
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 4: and when that match did happen, I was so focused

378
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 4: on making that the best that it could possibly be.

379
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 3: I guess my mind was kind of clouded to everyone else.

380
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 4: But now that I'm thinking about it, there is actually

381
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 4: one guy and it's very very possible, and it's very

382
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 4: very possible they could up in this year, and that

383
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 4: guy is Mike Santana. I think me and Mike have

384
00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 4: been the two best guys that TNA has to offer.

385
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 4: And I'm throwing stuff Riley in there as well, and

386
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 4: Nick Nammat and obviously we have all these other great guys,

387
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:11,920
Speaker 4: but especially the last six months, I think, especially since

388
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:15,359
Speaker 4: I've I've had the Exhibition Championship, Uh, Mike Santana has

389
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 4: been the guy for TNA, you know what I mean.

390
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 4: And I've personally been chasing him to be the guy

391
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,959
Speaker 4: in TNA. And I feel like it's only amount of

392
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,280
Speaker 4: time until with clashing heads, whether that's for for my title,

393
00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,359
Speaker 4: whether that's for his title, I feel like for me,

394
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 4: that's a match that has to happen this year so

395
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 4: we can see who the best, uh that TNA really has.

396
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,359
Speaker 2: Oh, that would be incredible because I mean when you

397
00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:39,959
Speaker 2: guys were here in Nashville a few weeks ago, you know,

398
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:43,280
Speaker 2: there there was that that talks of, you know, Will

399
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 2: Leon cashing options seeing on Mike Santana, how can they

400
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 2: how can they coexist in a tag match? And you know,

401
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 2: I think that's gonna be a fun match when we

402
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:57,960
Speaker 2: finally get it. Leon versus Mike Santana, whether it's title

403
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 2: versus title, whether you can options see I know that

404
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,159
Speaker 2: we'll go ahead and say that it'll get more than

405
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 2: a five star review from Meltzer.

406
00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:06,120
Speaker 1: For sure.

407
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 4: Absolutely, Man, absolutely, and you know options, he's always still

408
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,400
Speaker 4: on the table. Man, Like you said, whether it's for mine,

409
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 4: whether it's for his. I think it's it's a much

410
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,640
Speaker 4: that has to happen sooner rather than Leo.

411
00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, for sure.

412
00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 2: As we're coming to the end of our interview, we

413
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,720
Speaker 2: always like to have fun towards the end. Because we

414
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 2: got through all the business part and we talked all

415
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 2: the things that we need to talk about.

416
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: This is where we get to have some fun.

417
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 3: Here we go.

418
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 2: I know, Leon Slater knows a lot of people, and

419
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 2: Leon Slater's probably got some interesting contacts in his phone.

420
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 2: If there was somebody we looked through your phone right now,

421
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,920
Speaker 2: go through your contacts and we FaceTime them, who would

422
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 2: be the first person you would click FaceTime and would answer?

423
00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:45,640
Speaker 1: And can we try it?

424
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 3: This is a tough question, is it?

425
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 4: Because I have a lot of people that I can

426
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:53,000
Speaker 4: press the button fall, I don't know how many people

427
00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,040
Speaker 4: are gonna pick up, not only because it's me, but

428
00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 4: or on a different time zone, especially right that comes

429
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 4: to mind, it's probably Joe Henry. You know, me and Joe,

430
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,760
Speaker 4: Me and Joel like this. I think me and Joel

431
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 4: like this. I guess about to find out, right, I

432
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 4: guess about.

433
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 3: To find out.

434
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 1: So, so we we have to say his name and

435
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 1: he'll appear. So let's see if it works.

436
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, here we go, Joe Henry. Let me are

437
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 3: we are we trying to get a fast time here? Yeah?

438
00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 3: Let me try first time him? Okay, here we go.

439
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 3: Where is he?

440
00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:27,560
Speaker 1: We'll see if it really works. When you say Joe

441
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 1: Hendry's name, does he really appear?

442
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 3: Say his name and he appears?

443
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: It's like beatlejuice.

444
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, come on, Joe.

445
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,800
Speaker 1: Come on, Joe, we said your name three times.

446
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 3: It's not looking good. It's not looking good. It's not

447
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 3: it's not looking good.

448
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: No, come on, Joe, save us, Joe Hendry.

449
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 3: We're just say his name and he appears.

450
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 4: He's a false prophet, confirmed, John, No, Joe Hendry's a

451
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:05,639
Speaker 4: false prophet.

452
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 3: What can I say? What can I say?

453
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: Well, we at least gave it a try. Watch.

454
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 2: I guarantee you when we're done with this interview, he'll

455
00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 2: call you back and be like, hey, what's up to

456
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 2: right now?

457
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:19,920
Speaker 4: There, Joe, Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry. Guys, say his name

458
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,159
Speaker 4: and he will not appear. Apparently he doesn't work on

459
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:23,040
Speaker 4: the UK time zone.

460
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 3: That's what it is. He's moved to America now he

461
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 3: doesn't work on his time zone anymore.

462
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 2: Leo Slater is our guest on the show right now. Man,

463
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 2: it's an honor and privilege to always have you on.

464
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 2: We're looking forward to seeing what twenty twenty six is

465
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 2: gonna do for you.

466
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: For sure.

467
00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,640
Speaker 2: Before we let you go, you want to say anything

468
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,880
