On competing in a title ladder match at WrestleMania 40: “I don’t know if it’s really hit me yet. Being able to sit back and watch [our win on Raw], and see the fans reaction, seeing them go crazy. You always dream of that moment of being able to be in that ring and point to that WrestleMania sign. And if you’re just pointing to it, it’s whatever. But to be able to point to it and say, I am finally having a match at WrestleMania, it means the world to me.”

On this being his first WrestleMania: “It’s ten years [in the making]. I had my first tryout here in 2015. I’ve done various things in this company for a very, very long time, but I’ve never been at WrestleMania. The fact that it’s finally happening, me and Tommaso together, DIY, is something we’ve always talked about, something we’ve always dreamed about.”

WWE WrestleMania 40 is scheduled for April 6-7 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA.

The upcoming WrestleMania 40 event is set to feature an exciting Six-Pack Ladder match for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championships.
