You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On the turnbuckle spot at AEW Revolution: “F*** me, my a*s after that match mate. I will say it until the cows come home. That was the most painful thing that has ever happened to me in a match ever. Not enough to stop the match, but my a*s was hurting so much, it was flipping blue afterwards. For me, having all that reaction and having all that expectation — even in the pain that I was in going backstage and this giant ice pack and this weird drink that looked like pi*s.”
On what was lovely about it: “But it’s so lovely again. Then, laying on the flipping table crying like, ah, my a*s hurts so much. I felt somebody grab my hand and go, ‘Mr. Ospreay?’ I looked up and it was Ric Flair and I was like, ah! Let me stand back up again like, ‘Yes sir?’ He was just like, ‘You’re everything they’ve said and more.’”
