They\u2019re making the movie. My dad is a public figure so they\u2019re making the movie but, the director, I believe, he\u2019s been contacting my dad and they\u2019ve been talking and stuff and apparently, he\u2019s a lifelong fan and he loves my dad. He wants to tell the story right and so we\u2019re just hoping for the best. They seem like really good people and stuff and so, we\u2019ll see. You never know with movies\u2026 Just like my brother was saying, he\u2019s so different. People that know him, that really know him, you\u2019ll probably never meet anybody like him. Some people that don\u2019t know him would assume that he\u2019s this good-looking pretty boy, Hollywood guy but, he wasn\u2019t at all\u2026 I think if it\u2019s told right, it\u2019s gonna be a really, really great movie and I mean, it could be so many things. Of course, a love story, of course it can be sad, you know? With the deaths and the brothers but if you look at my dad, it\u2019s not a sad story after\u2026 He told us death can do two things to a man. It can harden you towards the world and make you hate everything or it can break you down and make you compassionate towards those who suffer, and my dad is one of the most compassionate men that I\u2019ve ever met, with my children, with all the nieces and nephews, with us.<\/p>\n<p><b>On the photo of Zac Efron that\u2019s been circulating:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Marshall: Dude, huge, I know [he said about the photo of Zac Efron on set of The Iron Claw]. My dad said, \u2018All right man, relax. You\u2019re looking too good\u2019 [he laughed].<\/p>\n<p>Ross: Yeah, he\u2019s out there.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall: Might have to switch roles to uncle Kerry.<\/p>\n<p><b>On their NXT tryout opportunity:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Marshall: So Jim Ross reached out to us and got us a tryout. It wasn\u2019t an offer. It was a tryout for NXT and so they were gonna fly us out to go do the tryout and we immediately accepted, but then\u2026 and I feel like too, my dad, when he found out we wanted to be wrestlers, he wanted us to go to the highest thing we could and go to WWE to learn the best way and my dad was like, \u2018I can make some phone calls for you guys. If it\u2019s anything y\u2019all need to do\u2019 and we\u2019re like, \u2018No dad. We really want to see if we can make it. The name has done enough for us. We just wanna see how far we can make it with just our skill and ability\u2019 and you know, and so Jim Ross gave us a call and got us a tryout and I think it was like a few weeks before the tryout, we\u2019re at the gym and I had this weird anxiety.<\/p><div id=\"prowr-2055414972\" class=\"prowr-content-4 prowr-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_2 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_2\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_2\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Ross: It was like unsettling feeling.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall: Unsettling feeling like, it\u2019s not the time, it\u2019s not the time, it\u2019s not the time and then I really didn\u2019t say anything to him and he was working out and he mentioned something like, \u2018I hope we\u2019re not forcing anything to happen by doing this and not putting our best foot forward\u2019 and when he said that, I was having dreams about it and stuff and I was like, \u2018Hey man, what if when we go, we want to give the best product that we have and what if we give it another couple years or whatever before we go or something else comes up?\u2019 Because what we were doing too, we both enjoyed. Wrestling in Texas, we\u2019re getting better and better. We\u2019re wrestling every weekend. We were working all around Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas and we were getting a lot better and a lot more comfortable.<\/p>\n<p><b>On Ric Flair&#8217;s last match:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Marshall: Dude, that was so awesome [competing at Ric Flair\u2019s Last Match versus The Briscoes]. Everything that could go wrong, went wrong. We got into Arizona and our flight was delayed six times and so we were just sitting in Arizona. We missed the meet-and-greet which we were upset about. We wanted to go meet the people and see \u2018em. We literally flew in maybe 20 minutes before our match.<\/p>\n<p>Ross: We got there after the show had already started.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall: We had to get dressed in the van and had to wrestle in our jeans because you know, bags weren\u2019t ready or anything so we just got there and went straight into the ring. I wish I would have been able to talk to more people but, it was almost better in a way because I never got to see the crowd until I walked out-out of the locker room and it\u2019s a big crowd man. Everyone got to see our natural reaction but that was our first time absorbing what was going on.<\/p>\n<p>Ross: That was us seeing the crowd for the very first time, not knowing what to expect. The whole thing was just off the cuff, work indie dates and give back to the indie scene.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall: The Briscoes are fun. We definitely wanna work with them again. That was fun. There was definitely some brotherly rivalry in there and yeah, I want to do it again. I really want to do it again. At least redeem ourselves man. I\u2019m not making excuses, but I was puking the whole trip. I got food poisoning and man, it was nuts. I said I was doing better right when the match was over. I think wrestling and sweating it out, started feeling better.<\/p>\n<p>Ross: There was so much leading up to that. It was unreal. We\u2019re like, just got there, boom. It was crazy.<\/p>\n<p>Marshall: It was so much to worry about that at one point, you\u2019re just like, worrying is obviously not making the plane go faster, not making cars go faster. Let\u2019s just be as light-hearted as we can, let\u2019s enjoy what we can and smile and laugh.<\/p><div id=\"prowr-3488180816\" class=\"prowr-content-5 prowr-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: prowrestling_incontent_3 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"prowrestling_incontent_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"prowrestling_incontent_3\", slotId: \"prowrestling_incontent_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Ross: We make it, we make it.
