1. Who was your biggest inspiration to become a wrestler? Growing up I don't remember there being a stage where I didn't want to be a wrestler, my whole family were fans. The main few wrestlers I gravitated towards growing up was definitely the likes of Rob Van Dam,Jeff Hardy,Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar 2. Who's the best wrestler you have worked with and why? I've had the privilege of working with some of the best wrestlers in Ireland and even Europe but the two that stick out to me would be Jigsaw and Jordan Devlin, not only because they're crazy talented but also because they are so willing share their knowledge and give less experienced wrestlers a chance to showcase what they're made of.Two ridiculously kind and generous guys
3. What advise would you give to somebody that's wants to break into the business? The main bit of advice I could give to people breaking in is never get an ego,don't expect the whole scene to revolve around you,there's a world full of wrestlers and I've seen some fantadtic wrestlers get ruined because of their own ego.In my opinion respect is one of the aspects of being a wrestler,you could be the best pure wrestler on the planet but without respect you'd get nowhere. 4. You've wrestled at many venues, but where is the best? This year I lost count of how many venues I've wrestled in, I've wrestled on OTT's biggest show ever infront of 2,200 people and that was absolutely mind blowing but the Tivolli is the home of OTT and after recently coming back to it and receiving such an amazing welcome,I can easily say that is without a doubt my favourite venue 5. Who would be your dream match be against? Also, if you could team with anyone, who would that be? With all the buzz around him I'd love to have the chance to face Matt Riddle at least once aswell as Mike Bailey because I feel our styles would go together really well together,another 2 people I'd love to wrestle because of their crazy athleticism is Will Osprey and Ricochet,those lads are just in their own level and I feel like I'd learn a lot sharing a ring with them on any occasion and with all 4 of those guys already being a part of OTT maybe it's not impossible. 5. What would be a normal day/week in your life be like? A normal week for me usually involves training both Freestyle and Professional wrestling and ideally some shows on the weekend 6. A great career to date and only going to get better, but what is the dream? The dream would be to live in Florida,wrestle full time and get paid well for it but of course I have to earn that so I'd love to wrestle around other parts of Europe,spend a few months in Japan and then focus on America 7. What's been the hardest part of your career so far? The hardest part of my career so far I'd say is establishing a character and getting an understanding of how the business works.
8. What is the proudest moment for you so far? Without a doubt it would have to be wrestling against Jigsaw infront of 2,200 people in the biggest wrestling event any irish promotion has ever put on,the reaction I got from the crowd that day is something I'll never forget and standing in the ring taking it all in is without a doubt the proudest I've ever been of myself An excellent set of answers from the Supreme Scotty Davis, a truly interesting man, somebody that is going to be one of the biggest things in Irish and of course, British wrestling, so make sure you make note and try and watch him compete, and do what he does best! Thank you very much to a gentleman outside of the ring, and a seriously talented performer inside it, Scotty Davis.
