Mr. Stone hopes he can achieve the levels of success that Paul Heyman and MVP have had in their WWE careers.
NXT Superstar Mr. Stone recently sat down with Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated. When asked about the fact that he was already wrestling on the weekends by his senior year of high school, Stone said the longevity of his career is something he’s very proud of.
“I’m very proud of my past,” Mr. Stone said. “This is what I’ve always wanted; this is what I’ve always loved. I’ve learned a lot throughout my career. Longevity in wrestling is hard. You need to stay on top of your game, constantly reinvent yourself, swallow your ego, and you need to be willing to put in the work and hustle.
“Still, to this day, I’m the biggest hustler there is. There is still a lot left I can accomplish. Look at Paul Heyman and MVP. They kept evolving, and they’re still integral parts of what we do. That’s what I want to continue to be.”
