Aiden English Talks Extreme Rules, NXT Teams On The Horizon, Enzo And Cass, WWE's Tag Division, More
Former NXT Tag Team Champion Aiden English was interviewed by Planeta Wrestling ahead of his first WWE Tag Team Championship opportunity at this Sunday's Extreme Rules. English spoke to the Spanish hosts about his hopes for the event.
English was asked about the theme of Extreme Rules, and what kind of 'extreme' match he'd like to take part in. The tag team influences on English were evident.
"As far as tag team matches, there have been tag team tables matches, ladder matches, Edge & Christian's TLC matches, all of which are equally entertaining and terrifying. I would say some kind of manliness match, but nobody would win that but us. Ever since I was a young kid, I've always wanted to be in a tag team ladder match. If I ever get a chance to wet my whistle in a tag team ladder match, I'd jump at the opportunity, no pun intended," English said.
The Vaudevillains last pay-per-view match ended in controversial and unfortunate fashion, when Enzo Amore suffered a concussion at Payback. English said that if Enzo happened to make a miraculous recovery and Enzo & Cass team were added to the match, he'd be against it.
"I'm open for anything. We never got to finish our business at Payback. If they'd like to throw their hats in the mix, I'm more than open to it, but we earned our number one contendership shot. We want our shot against the New Day. After that, when we win at Extreme Rules on Sunday and they want a shot, they can go ahead," said English.
English also said he has high hopes for the WWE tag team division, and mentioned several teams on the horizon.
"With additions from NXT like ourselves, Enzo and Cass. Other teams like the Revival, American Alpha, Blake and Murphy. We saw the Shining Stars debut on Raw. The tag team division is growing," he said.
