Aries declined because he knew that those fans thought they were smarter than everyone else, ambushing the wrestlers at the airport for free pictures and autographs, when all the real fans supported the wrestlers at the shows by buying merchandise.
Aries informs that he was quite nervous prior to his commentary debut in WWE because he knew it was a big opportunity, and he also knew that if he did a good job it would open some doors for him, and it did. He mentions that Vince McMahon and the other Producers rarely spoke to him in his ear while he was working, so he didn’t really have to learn how to deal with that.
Aries admits that he never really settled into working in WWE because things constantly changed for him during his time there. He also wasn’t really excited about his WrestleMania debut, and for the most part he just wanted to get it over with. He says that he actually had to manufacture excitment in interviews leading up to the event.
He thought his match against Neville was fine given the their place on the card and the time they had. He admits that he wasn’t really comfortable as a babyface, and he’s always felt much more comfortable as a heel throughout his career.
That sums up today’s episode of X-Pac 1, 2, 360. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya next week for another recap!
