Below is the “part two” of the audio from an exclusive interview former WWE Superstar Zach Gowen granted to WrestleZone Radio. It features Zach talking with WrestleZone Daily host Nick Hausman.
This is “part two” of their interview that started earlier this week. Zach talks candidly about growing up a wrestling fan with limited internet access, printing off WrestleZone dirt sheets for his friends, feuding with Vince McMahon, working with Matt Hardy, getting thrown down a flight of stairs by Brock Lesnar, being a motivational speaker, more…
The following is an excerpt from the interview. It features Zach’s comments about Vince McMahon talking to him just before Brock Lesnar shoved a stunt man, dressed as Zach, down a flight of stairs in a wheelchair:
ZG: WWE is a production. It’s a real, live, television production. They have stunt men come in and do things, especially in backstage segments. So, they had a stunt man take the bump for me, which was great. Right before the stunt man is about to take the fall, I’m standing up there watching them film it. Vince McMahon looks at me and he says, “You know, kid, if you want… you can take the bump. You can do it yourself if you want.” I said, “no thanks man.” I know I’m stupid but I’m not that stupid. I’m not going to fall down two flights of stairs in a wheel chair. I’m not trained to do that.
