Bobby Fish reflects on the next phase of his career as a singles competitor.
Following his WWE release on August 6, Bobby Fish has signed with AEW and is making some appearances in Major League Wrestling. During a new interview with Chris Van Vliet, Bobby Fish discusses the positive energy around AEW, his Major League Wrestling debut, and transitioning into singles competition.
Chris Van Vliet sent the following highlights
On AEW:
“Man, they’re hitting home runs there. When you’re making contact with almost every pitch, it’s just a good time for them right now. Opportunity is what it is, it’s opportunity. And you’re either going to do something successful with it or you’re going to fall on your face and learn from that mistake.”
On his MLW debut:
“I’m excited. It’s an interesting place to get out there on the indie scene and kind of doing this thing freehand. When you spend a good amount of time in this business, you experience… Every place is different. No place is better or worse, just different. It’s certainly different getting back into the swing of things with where I am now and in a place like MLW.”
On becoming a singles competitor again:
“I think it’s like, you get your bearings, you’ve got to give yourself that time. But I think when you have done it for this long, transitioning between the two, I don’t want to say it is easy, but you know it’s going to happen. You just have to be patient with it sometimes. They both have pros and cons to them, just like anything else. But towards the end of our Ring of Honor run, Kyle [O’Reilly] and I stopped tagging, I did mostly singles. Then transitioning to NXT, it turned into a couple of years of mostly tagging. I don’t know how to categorize the tail end of my run, but now I am back to kind of a singles route, and I am happy about it.”
