The Revival On Not Being Flashy, If They Try To Be "Old School", Having A Chip On Their Shoulder
Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder, also known as The Revival, spoke with ESPN just before the start of NXT TakeOver: San Antonio. Here are some of the highlights:
Playing a "character":
"There is a huge chip on my shoulder, and I don't hold a grudge against anybody else, but I know how good The Revival is and I know what we can do and what we can accomplish. So I want to stop you there and say I can 100 percent fully guarantee it's not a character."
Being called old school:
"It's not that we are old school, it's just that's what we grew up watching and love watching. Those are the guys that we idolized, so it's not so much like we are trying to be different or bring something back that was once popular, it's just that this is what we grew up with and enjoy and this is how it translates in the ring for us."
Their presentation:
"We know we are just regular-looking guys, average looking Joe's wearing trunks and boots and putting our knee pads on. We have no sparkles, we have no frills. We don't do any flips and there's no face paint or sparkling dust. But if you put us in the ring, we will produce and make everybody believe it's the truth. We are the truth. We are The Revival and there is nobody that does it any better than we do."
Scott Dawson and Dash Wilder also discussed their 2017 plans, holding back on Twitter, and working with American Alpha. You can read the full interview by clicking here.
