Fandango was recently interviewed while at the WWE Performance Center. During the interview he discussed his return from injury, being met with a warm reception by the NXT audience and his pairing with Tyler Breeze. Here are the highlights:
On Being Treated Well By The NXT Audience When He Returned From Injury:
It’s exciting for me, I told a couple of the guys, it’s the most excited I’ve been. Obviously cause I’ve been out of the ring for a year, but even before that when I was still active on the road, this is the most excited I’ve been, because I know down here at NXT, they’ve obviously got great competitions. But this is where I started, and things just in life work out sometimes. I really enjoyed tagging with Breeze and we’ve had a really good run together, and I think there’s still more that we can do together. I think we’ve, like I said last time we spoke, we kind of notched the comedy off our body of work, tagging back up. We can show people how we can really go in the ring knowing that that’s coming to fruition now and then I’m about to get back into the ring and I’ve been training really hard, it’s really exciting, full circle, full sail circle.
We live for nights like tonight. At first I was a little bit confused because I’ve never heard a whole crowd chant my name like that. It’s been a few years. After I realized that they’re chanting Fandango, then I got a little bit more nervous.
On Breezango:
Same as before, things haven’t changed. Breeze goes out there, gets his butt kicked, I come out and make it safe. From the bottom of my heart man, it meant so much to me to get that reaction and if you guys remember me, and you remember the Fandangoing, and just keep cheering for me, so I can get that reaction every night I go out, us, not just me, us.
