Kenny Omega on WWE developmental, Bob Holly bullying

Evan Prout passed this along.

Kenny Omega stopped by Under the Mat Radio to discuss his feelings on a few topics such as WWE Developmental times, Bob Holly, New Japan Pro Wrestling, Street Fighter and so much more! You can listen to the full interview below; here are some of the highlights:

Kenny on his time in WWE Developmental:

“I went there and it was like really grueling physical training we were training to be MMA fighters not professional wrestlers (laughter). I liked it and enjoyed it because that’s the kind of training that I like to do. The problem with Deep South to me is that there was a group that were tight with the boss and they would always go out and drink and have barbeques. Then when WWE would say who should we look at? Bill Demott would say oh look at this guy and this guy. Of course those were his buddies….”

Kenny on Bob Holly being a bully:

“We had guests come in at times like Benoit (Chris), William Regal, Dean Malenko, and Bob Holly would come and kick our ass. I don’t know what the guy problem was he was always grumpy. I remember one time he (Holly) got mad at one of the guys and kept punching him in the face…”

Kenny on how he thinks the Japanese fan base wouldn’t like TNA style of wrestling:

“Not to knock TNA but there’s too much hokey talking and segments that don’t really involve wrestling. Of course everyone in TNA speaks English so if there’s an angle going on they won’t be able to understand it. TNA has a talented roster but when I looked at it seems as if everyone was rushing it’s like the time is given to the talking and when it happens in the ring everyone rushes to the finish. In Japan it’s the opposite when you talk make it quick and tell your story in the match.”

Kenny Omega also talks about AJ Styles saving his wrestling career, his favorite action movies, how he doesn’t get why Chuck Norris movies are cool and much more in this exclusive 90-minute interview on Under the Mat Radio.
