HIGHLIGHTS
Bam Bam Bigelow
“I’m a huge Bam Bam fan. I love all the stuff he did in ECW. I think that was a bit of a different run for him. WWE-wise, I love the LT [Lawrence Taylor] main event he had WrestleMania. Now a lot of people might not put it up there as like a classic matchup, but Bam Bam was such a professional and so good at what he did that he made LT look like a million dollars. That’s something I’ve fond memories of as a kid. That and the whole flame attire and stuff!
He always stood out to me as a kid. So that was why I wanted to have that inspiration for the TakeOver gear that I had.”
Big Men in Wrestling
“Yeah, Vader is one of them. I was a big Vader fan. The stuff that he did in WCW, obviously here in WWE, but also all the stuff that he did in Japan. They’re probably the two I take away from most: Bam Bam Bigelow and Big Van Vader.
”
(continued) “I actually have one of [Vader’s] masks at home! His son actually sent me, which was really nice. He sent me as a gift one of his dad’s masks. So I have that at home. So maybe I could wear that at some point. I mean, I’d like to do the big Mastodon stuff.
That’s the that’s the goal! With the smoke and everything. That’d be awesome.
