Fandango Talks About Inspirations For His Character & Being Live At WrestleMania

Fandango recently spoke with SkySports.com to promote WrestleMania XXX. Here are some highlights:

The spectacle that is WrestleMania:
“To debut at the biggest stage of the year was a big task. You are very nervous leading up to the big show and about walking out in front of 85,000 people, but when you do you can just feel the audience and it was just electric. WrestleMania is the biggest spectacle of the year and you are going to be entertained.”

Inspirations for his character:

“I grew up as a huge WWE fan watching guys like Shawn Michaels, Ricky Steamboat, and “Ravishing” Rick Rude. I loved the flamboyant, pretty boys and the guys who got the girls and money. That inspired me and right after I got into wrestling I went to ballroom-dancing school. It was a big part of my training and got incorporated into my character.”
