EC3 Wants To Write A Book About Wrestling Code Of Ethics, Real1 On His MLW Departure
During a recent appearance on the Wrestling Perspective podcast, WWE and Impact Wrestling alumni EC3 shared his plan to write a book about a wrestling code of ethics, which he wishes to serve as a handy guide for future generations.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
EC3 on his upcoming book about wrestling ethics: “I think the upcoming generations are lost. There is no leadership. So, this [book] is based on s**t I’ve seen and I’ve done. I’m calling it a Code of Ethics, and it’s meant to help an aspiring wrestler being backstage. It’s part of our tradition to say ‘Hi’ to everyone and shake hands. Sometimes, I’ve noticed that I’d be in the middle of a conversation with the boss backstage, and a lot of wrestlers just stand around awkwardly, waiting to say ‘Hi.’ It’s like they want to come up, but don’t want to interrupt the conversation. But they’ve been seen and they’re just in a tight spot.”
On how to say “Hi” to a wrestler: “When you do say ‘Hi,’ make it quick and memorable. More often than not, they’re gonna engage you in conversation, and you might wind up best friends.”
MLW released Real1 earlier this month and the rumors suggest that the WWE alumni declined MLW’s creative plans to work with the company’s top talents.
During a recent interview with WhatCulture Wrestling, Real1 discussed his departure from MLW.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
Real1 on being written off MLW TV: “I had a storyline going on MLW, if you’re aware, and I got written off TV there. My own accord. Nobody told me to do it. But if I have to put somebody over on my way out the door, he better be somebody. He better be a badass, and he better be able to kick some people’s asses, so that guy was Microman.”
His thoughts on putting over Microman: “Microman is the smallest pro wrestler in the world, but he’s also the biggest star in MLW, so I felt like it was the right thing to do. It was a stretcher job, I left on my back. That was probably the last you’re gonna see of me in MLW for the time being.”
