EJ Nduka Reveals His Top Two Dream Opponents In WWE
EJ Nduka, who is currently a free agent after departing MLW following the Blood & Thunder event back in January, has a few WWE dream opponents in mind. Two of those names include Roman Reigns and Ricochet.
Speaking on Public Enemies’ “Behind Enemy Lines” podcast, Nduka commented on his future plans, his in-ring style, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On his dream opponents: “Number one, and this is recently, I would definitely like to go with Roman Reigns, no question. I think he’s one of the best storytellers in the game. I just like the energy he brings. He’s the dominant wrestler right now in our industry, and he’s just incredible. I’d like to share the ring with him. Number two is easily Ricochet. I think he’s the best in-ring performer of our time. I think he’s a genius. I picked his brain a lot in the early days of me cultivating who The Judge was, and a lot of the stuff that he taught me and told me, it kind of resonated.”
On his in-ring style: “I hear from a lot of people, ‘I like your style of wrestling. I like the energy you bring, I like your facials, I like how your moves are.’ It’s because I know I’m not gonna be no damn Ricochet. I ain’t gonna do no 850 off the top rope. I’m not Rey Mysterio, I can’t do no hurricanranas off the third rope. But I am 6’8, 285 pounds, and I’m stronger than most of everybody in this business. I ran a 4.47 [40-yard dash] at the NFL Combine. I’m fast, I’m explosive, and that’s what God blessed me with, so it really came naturally, my style. I can go from zero to 100 in the ring. People are like, ‘Damn, I didn’t know you could do that.’ I don’t want to really boast on myself because it’s God-given abilities. I didn’t decide okay, I’m gonna be 6’8, today’s the day. I didn’t decide that. It’s just life, and life ain’t fair for everybody, so I took what I was good at and what I was blessed with and made my style.”
