Pro Wrestler and Actor, Kevin Kiley (Alex Riley) is the special guest on Sean Waltman’s X-Pac 12360 this week and talks about his role on the Netflix Series “Glow”. Below are some interview highlights, along with the full show in the video player:
Kevin Kiley Jr. Mentions a Oh Crap Moment during his time with WWE:
I’m in my suit going over the script and a producer told me “You need to change your suit, we need to get this pre-taped done now”…and I’m was like “Are you kidding me, the show goes on in 10mins.” He goes “No, we have to get this done now.” So, then I go through a double panic & you just do what you’re told. I need to at least be able to switch gears in my mind to what’s on the script. As to oppose what’s happening in this pre-taped. The guy goes “You’ll be fine, we have to get this done.” We go live and they literally end it, the pre-tape was done and I sprint to the gorilla position, grabbed a mic and walked out and it worked out okay.
Kevin Kiley Jr. Talks About His Relationship With Vince McMahon and Triple H During His Time in WWE :
Vince McMahon, Triple H…they were straight. They were straight shooters and I always loved when somebody would say ‘we’re just not gonna do it right now and sorry’ rather than b*llsh***ing me and they never did. I heard and I kinda got the feeling that Vince was always a pretty big supporter of mine, so hey what a compliment to have. And I hope I am making them very proud right now.
Kevin Kiley Jr. Mentions if he would have stayed with WWE:
I don’t know. Because I would’ve been torn. I really really love that job, but WWE is very in this way…they own you. They would’ve owned me, I don’t think I would have been allowed opportunities to do anything else.
Get it all on this week’s brand new episode of AfterBuzz TV’s X-Pac 12360.
Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.
