WWE Superstar Hornswoggle recently spoke to Appleton Post-Crescent about his recent series of matches against El Torito and his hopes that fans will take him seriously as a wrestler:
âMan, I still donât think they do,â he said. âI get four, five tweets literally every day saying, âWhy do you still have a job?â And I guess itâs staying under the radar more than anything (laughs). I really think this whole storyline and these matches with (El) Torito has really made people look at me like, wow, he can do this.
âBefore this, I really didnât have matches. Iâd wrestle a little boogeyman or Iâd juggle around or use squirt guns, but now Iâm having legit wrestling matches. Our WeeLC match at Extreme Rules stole the show. I donât care what anyone says. It was a pre-show to the pay-per-view and I will go to bat for that match against any match that was on that night. That match stole the show because people didnât expect what we did and the crowd tore the roof off.
âNew Jersey fans are the most ruthless fans in the country for booing and hating on whateverâs in the ring if they donât like it. We had them chanting, âThis is awesomeâ and âHoly (expletive)â the whole match. Thatâs when I realized I can do this. It felt so good to finally have one of those moments after eight years. It was great and I really think people are starting to take me seriously and realize that Iâm more than a circus act.â
