X-Pac 1, 2, 360 Recap w/ Joey Janela – Super Show Down Analysis, Advice From William Regal, Is X-Pac Booked for DX Reunion? More!

Janela has since gained notoriety by working matches with people like Dan Severn and Marty Jannetty. Some fans were suspicious of Janela’s ability to have a good match with Jannetty due to some of Jannetty’s health issues. Janela says he basically kept Jannetty on a leash all weekend to ensure he didn’t have a night on the town, but the match turned out to be terrific and Jannetty looked great during the bout.
Jalena says it was very neat to work ALL IN. This was the biggest crowd he worked in front of and it was cool to be invited by The Young Bucks, who are at the front of something special right now. He feels so fortunate to be where he is right now with very little training, especially since he had a bad attitude when he was younger.

X-Pac says he loves the look and the persona Janela has created for himself. Janela points out that when his bookings started to pick up he began thinking of ideas to make himself stand out. His “bad boy” gimmick basically stemmed from a social media joke, and Rhett Titus from ROH ran with it and basically made it stick as a nickname.
Janela points out that William Regal has given him the same advice multiple times now. Regal continues to tell him to stop doing crazy stuff and to limit his dangerous bumps. Janela says he understands Regal’s point, but he’s been wrestling that style for over a decade now and hasn’t had a serious injury. He thinks he’s developed a way to protect himself.
