Speaking on his “Hall of Fame” podcast, Booker addressed being consistently blown away by Dragunov’s efforts in the ring. He said,

“He brings everything for me from the way he walks, the way he talks, the way he dresses. The way he goes out in the middle of that ring and performs with anybody.

“It was all about how he just went out and fought and made me believe that he was fighting … When I saw Ilja Dragunov I was wondering if I was in the right arena. When a guy can make me feel like that in this business, he’s next level, he’s extraordinary, he’s second to none.” 

On this week’s NXT, Dragunov spoke about his championship win in a segment that included Carmelo Hayes, Trick Williams, and ‘Dirty’ Dominik Mysterio.
