Former WWE NXT Superstar Chris Hero (Kassius Ohno) recently appeared on The Kevin Gill Show. Part 1 of the show is available on AudioBoom or iTunes. You can check out The Kevin Gill Show on Facebook and Twitter. Below are highlights sent to us by the show:
Wrestling’s growth:
Art constantly evolves, and pro wrestling is very much an art to me. It’s just a mixture of every art you can imagine. It’s constantly moving, constantly growing, constantly changing in different directions. The product you see now, the performers, the events, the promotions, the fans, we were all inspired by years previous. That’s why the envelope gets pushed.
His future:
I could rest on my laurels, have given a greatest hits tour of the best of Chris Hero, and do a little bit of this and that. There’s no challenge in that. I want to come up with new things and still have them (the audience) eating out of the palm of my hand.
Fans and working stiff:
Some people don’t understand that you can’t tell if it’s stiff unless you’re in there. Because some things have happened to me in matches that look dangerous and unsafe, and I’ve felt like a new born baby. And there’s other things that look routine and really f–k you up.
The influence of PWG:
It’s not just a stylistic influence because of the matches. It’s not just an organisational influence because of how the shows are …
