AEW/ROH star Cheeseburger appeared on Fightful’s Co-Existing With Rob and Maggie, where he talked about a number of topics including Delirious and how he would not be where he is today without him.
Cheeseburger said, “Delirious, that’s like my wrestling dad. I could talk for like an hour about how much Delirious means to me. I would not be anywhere close to the position that I am in wrestling and the cool stuff I’ve done without him. I was very lucky to start at the Ring of Honor Dojo and have Delirious as my trainer and my mentor, a friend and a father figure. He means the entire world, he means so much to my wrestling career and my personal life and has helped me through a lot of stuff.”
On wrestling in the Tokyo Dome in front of Delirious:
“One of the coolest moments of my wrestling career was the first time going to Japan and being in the Tokyo Dome and him being there, getting to see me, someone he watched come into the Dojo at 17 years old, walk out in the Tokyo Dome, and for him to be there to witness that moment. One of the most special pictures of my career is this moment here from the last ROH taping before we shut down, when me and Delirious had our Pure Rules match. It’s one of my favorite matches. He took his mask off and handed it to me, and we had this very special moment.”
