“I didn’t find out till the day of. They just sit down whoever is the last four. We’ll have this group meeting, then, ‘Right, last four, stay’. They call out the last four, I’m in the four, I’m like, “Oh damn”.
“Then they’ll tell me right there, ‘You know, we’re going to go with Jey’. ‘I’m Just looking around like, ‘Yeah’.
“I’m freaking out to the whole day, but it’s a good thing, it’s great, it’s good pressure to get put on you that day. And also moving forward, I’m just excited, because that’s a great title accolade to have under your belt, as a wrestler, and for me.”
