The Hurt Syndicate’s MVP isn’t a fan of intergender wrestling.
On the latest episode of the Marking Out podcast, All Elite Wrestling‘s MVP spoke about intergender wrestling and why he’s not a fan of that genre of in-ring action.
“Imma piss a lot of you people off right now, and that’s okay. I am not a fan of intergender wrestling,” MVP stated. “I don’t like it, I’m not a fan of it. Again, this is what I was talking about before, the video game culture — who are now in wrestling — grew up playing Chun Li and kicking the shit out of people.
“I approach wrestling from the simulated combat mindset. I’ve always liked the shoot style. I like the realness. That’s why I fell in love with Japanese wrestling. As soon as you do intergender shit, now it’s unbelievable. You don’t have intergender boxing. You don’t have intergender MMA because biology matters.
“I once asked my ex-girlfriend, who was a professional fighter. I was talking to her about intergender wrestling, and I said, okay, all things level. A male fighter, your height and your weight, with a comparable skill set to you. You guys fight, real boxing match, what happens? She said, ‘I get killed.’ She didn’t even wait; she just said, ‘I get killed.’ It’s biology.”
MVP didn’t enjoy his intergender wrestling experience
Despite not being a fan, MVP did take part in one intergender match on the independent scene and couldn’t help but feel how stupid it was.
“When I was on the indies many, many years ago, I did one intergender match, and that shit was stupid,” MVP said. “I wish I hadn’t done it, but I was talked into it, and I was younger. I’m not a fan of it, I don’t like it. There are people that do like it, and there are people that have a lot of fun doing it, and they enjoy it.
“Like I say, if people want to see it and they’re buying a ticket to see it, then I’m not going to say you’re doing it wrong because if you’re selling tickets and you’re covering your cost and you’re feeding a fan base, then by all means. But, I’m not a fan of it.” [H/T: Fightful]
