Former WWE star Aiden English spoke with Inside The Ropes to discuss his recent release from the company due to cutbacks from the COVID-19 crisis. Highlights from the interview can be found below.
On his WWE release:
I honest to goodness felt lucky to make it this far, in such a unique position, but it shows you the reach of this pandemic and just how much of an effect it has on literally everybody.
Thoughts on the COVID-19 pandemic now that he’s unemployed:
That’s the toughest part. With everything going on, it’s hard to hit the ground running with a lot, because there’s no wrestling events, there’s no events of any kind, which has always been, obviously, between wrestling, I realized all my skillsets, between acting, wrestling, performing, all involve large crowds, generally speaking, or at least smaller crowds, so that’s hard.
How much he misses working events but knows he can’t until it’s safe:
I can’t wait to get back to events, potentially do some wrestling again, I have missed it, doing anything for any kind of wrestling organization, stuff like that, the opportunities are 100% out there but it’s just waiting until it’s safe to do so.
