Nick Gage On How Wrestling Has Changed, Why He Connects With Fans

Independent wrestling star Nick Gage recently did an interview with Uproxx to talk about several professional wrestling topics. Gage discussed how professional wrestling has changed over the years, and why he connects with fans the way he has been able to in his career.

At shows, I come out there and hug them motherf*ckers and say, “You’re the reason why I do it.” That’s the honest truth. That’s the way I feel. I speak what I feel. I think they gravitate toward that. Maybe they see that I didn’t give up when I got locked up. Could’ve quit, threw the towel in. Did the total opposite.
