In case you didn’t know…

Gotch was once an NXT Tag Team Champion alongside Aiden English when the duo was known as The Vaudevillians, but when the team was promoted to the main roster they became jobbers on the SmackDown Brand, which was obviously frustrating.

The former Champion was released from WWE following an altercation with English backstage at WrestleMania last year and has since been able to make a name for himself on the Independent Circuit.

The heart of the matter

Ahead of the MLW Fusion television taping from GILT Nightclub in Orlando on Thursday night, Gotch was able to open up about life after WWE when speaking to ProWrestling.com and interestingly noted that his mental state has changed since he was released back in April 2017.

WWE’s traveling schedule has become legendary over the years, which could be why Gotch is feeling much better mentally since he has been working on the Independent Circuit instead. Gotch also stated that he thought that he saw his release as an opportunity for him to do what he wanted to do, even though having a shower in his room is something that he misses.

What’s next?

Gotch will be part of MLW Fusion 8 p.m. ET Friday nights on beIN Sports and the show is taping Thursday night in Orlando and on July 19 from the Melrose Ballroom in New York City.
