Josh Lopez spoke with former WWE Intercontinental Champion Santino Marella on The Pro Wrestling Experience.

Below are some highlights of the interview:

Update on his injured Neck:

“Not too good. Wish I could report better, when I had the initial surgery I feel little bit better and started training and then two of the screws came out, so we had to go in and take out all of the titanium. Little set back with regards of the fact that your body tends to overreact with that type of surgery. Your neck tightens up and it’s effecting other parts of your back. It’s getting there.”

His Experience at WWE:

“It’s crazy because like now because of youtube. People will send me links all the time and so many fun and great moments there. Wrestling has been great. The locker room has always been great since I’ve been there. Traveling the world putting on shows and for me it’s pure fun getting out there and I tell people that I wrestle for free I just get paid to drag my bags around.”

Performing at WrestleMania:

“It’s Sport Entertainment yet you get this playoff feeling in your stomach. You up your training and take it seriously. There’s tension. It seems like any sports entertainer is going to be not judged but significantly remembered for there WrestleMania moments. It’s all about legacy. I love performing at WrestleMania. I’ll be down there this year to enjoy the event as a fan and I’ll be doing a couple signings at Axxess and looking at the card for this year’s Mania I can’t wait to enjoy the show as a fan for this WrestleMania.”

How will CM Punk fare in the UFC?

“Well it’s interesting. Punk is a super cardio efficient athlete. He’s very meticulous with his training. He trains hard. When he puts his mind on a particular thing he’s put his . Definitley has the skills as athlete to be a solid fighter and he trained in jiu jitsu. Has he been studying? I knew that he did karate as a kid, how’s his kickboxing/boxing that’s the only thing I’m worrying about. I’m only worrying cause I don’t know he could be kickboxing at rufus sports right now as we speak (laughing). He’ll have to be a high level and that’s the hard part.”

On Roman Reigns:

“The future. I see that everybody saying “Oh they’re pushing and shoving down our throats”. You complainthat you wanted something new and here it is and yet you’re still complaining. He’s a high caliber athlete. Very nice guy. Very locker room oriented guy. The industry is going to be in good hands.”
