Ring Of Honor World Champion Dalton Castle recently spoke with Dirtfork; you can read a few highlights below:
Dalton Castle comments on ‘the next step’ as World Champion:
“It’s hard to put a label on what the next step is. I sometimes don’t know what it is until I actually start making that move. Being world champion is excellent and it’s incredibly flattering to know that a company would trust me in such a position. But with that, I get the other side where I have doubters and get fans questioning why I’m world champion or people in the locker room, wondering why it’s me in the position and rightfully so. Every wrestler should want to be world champion. Unfortunately, there can only be one and that happens to be and now as world champion, my job as world champion is to remind everyone why I’m world champion.”
Castle comments on how much he enjoys wrestling:
“It was pretty long but it made me enjoy it so much because it was ridiculous and fun and we both knew how ridiculous it was. Keep your eyes on me when I’m wrestling. I laugh all the time. I love wrestling. I’m enjoying it in there, I’m not afraid to burst out laughing when something genuinely makes me laugh. I’m not going to get in trouble for having a smile.”
Castle comments on being inspired by Macho Man Randy Savage and others:
“He fits the mold of bright colors and sparkles and high energy, man. He drew me in like a moth to the flame.
“I think one of the Killer Bees was wrestling as Yellow Dog. As a little kid, he was the coolest to me just because he had a mask on and then they took his mask off, I was like, ‘Oh no’ and then boom, he had another mask underneath and I was like, ‘This guy is the greatest wrestler of all-time.’ If the Young Bucks were around when I was growing up, I would worship them.”
