Why did you want to be a WWE Superstar? Con age 5
As a kid I used to watch WWE every week on Sky and World of Sport on ITV. I grew up watching it and it was always something I dreamed of doing. It’s like young lads in the UK growing up watching Manchester United – they all want to be there on that pitch themselves one day. I hope there are still lots of kids watching WWE with aspirations of becoming a Superstar one day because if they want it they can do it.
Who is your best friend out of all of the WWE Superstars? Hag age 8
It would have to be Drew McIntyre. We came into Wrestling together and have always been close friends. I think the fact we both started Wrestling together in the UK has a lot to do with it. If possible, we try to travel together and train together. It’s always great to hang out with your friends.
Do your old school friends want to be WWE Superstars? Con age 5
I think it all depends what their current jobs are! Lots of my school friends are big WWE fans and grew up supporting WWE like I did. But everybody’s lives take different paths and most of them are happy with what they do. Being a Superstar is hard work but loads of fun and I’m sure they would all love to have a go!
If you weren’t a WWE Superstar and you were a kid – what WWE toy would you buy? Con age 5
Well the toys have all changed since I was a kid and are all awesome, but I would have to go for the ‘Brawlin’ Buddies’. They are really new and really cool and allow you to have your own WWE battles at home with your friends. There’s nothing like creating your own storylines in your own front room.

Who is your favourite WWE Superstar of all time? Hag age 8
Now that’s a hard one. I have so much respect for all WWE athletes it’s hard to pick just one. I think it would be two guys – Mr Perfect and The Million Dollar Man. I loved villains when I was growing up and these guys were both amazing athletes as well as really cool villains. I know it may sound crazy to like a villain but these guys were both great at what they did!
If you could fight any WWE Superstar ever – who would it be? Hag age 8
I think it would have to be The Undertaker. I really want to face him at Wrestlemania XXIX in New York in April. He is on an undefeated streak at Wrestlemania of 20 matches and I think I could be the guy to stop him. I think it would be an exciting match up and I love a challenge! He certainly doesn’t scare me.
Do you ever want to jump behind a big guy in the ring and trip them up? Con age 5
You should never go behind somebody and trip them up. I don’t like underhanded tactics and I certainly wouldn’t encourage this kind of thing. I think you should face all your challenges head on, that’s the best way to overcome any obstacles you face.
What do the Irish make of your success? Hag age 8
The Irish are amazing, they are all so happy for me. When I come home to Dublin and visit Belfast I get the most amazing receptions. The crowd are awesome and of course I get to see my friends and family (but only briefly!!). They come to all the WWE events back home. It’s funny – my Dad Martin always gets bombarded with fans asking for autographs! I’m sure it will be the same during the November Tour in Dublin and Belfast.
Does your Mummy and Daddy think you look good in the WWE ring? Con age 5
They are very happy and really proud of me. I was working in London before I moved to WWE and I knew it was a gamble coming over here to try and follow my dream. But they supported me and believed I could make it. They are big fans too and can’t wait for the upcoming World Tours where they can see me with guys like The Big Show, The Miz and Ray Mysterio. It will be an amazing tour and they wouldn’t miss it for the world.
