In professional wrestling, even are far back as the 50s and the 60s, understanding the business and how far it&#8217;s come, and the changes that have happened over the time&#8230; Going back to the territory days and watching film, I got a lot of my passion from [that]. As a young kid (I was born in 1987), and my dad retired in &#8217;94, so I didn&#8217;t get a lot of years to watch my father live on TV, so I would go back through old footage and watch things. Not only his wrestling match, I would watch The Four Horsemen, Tully Blanchard, Harley Race, all the legends of our sport.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On being told to wear a mouthguard in Japan:<\/b> &#8220;I was 21 at the time, maybe 20. What a life-changing experience that wasn&#8217;t a culture shock for me. Not just the wrestling aspect of it, but the whole Japanese culture. I have Japanese in my blood, my grandmother is full Japanese, and it was my first experience in Japan. What a wonderful time I had with the culture and the fans, and the friends that I made there. But the wrestling is much different than it is here in the states. It&#8217;s on the front page of the paper, next to the sumo wrestling and the baseball. It&#8217;s a real sport. I&#8217;ll give you and example. The first thing they asked me when I got to the [Pro Wrestling Noah] dojo, I put my bags down, they asked me if I had a mouthpiece. Because every single night, every show I went to, there [were] multiple people getting knocked out, shoot knocked out every single night, and it is legit.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Why he was forced to retire from in-ring competition:<\/b> &#8220;The [back] injury couldn&#8217;t have happened at a worse time in my career. It was really getting to the point where things were taking off, all the hard work I had done for so many years was paying off. I was having a feud with Kassius Ohno on NXT, and I injured my back doing a moonsault. I landed wrong and I lost feeling in everything from my chin down. I could still move everything, but I couldn&#8217;t feel anything. Over the next few days, feeling started to come back to me, and I wrestled through it. I worked several more weeks and really kind of kept my mouth shut about it because I was given this position and I wanted to make the most of it, I didn&#8217;t want to give up that opportunity. And it got to the point where my son at the time was like two or three and I couldn&#8217;t even pick him up. I sat down and talked to the WWE doctors to discuss things with then and I flew up to Pittsburgh to see some specialists. The best idea for my career and my future would be to kind of put the brakes on for a little bit and get some things fixed in my back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On a possible return to the ring:<\/b> &#8220;I&#8217;ve always had that itch for wrestling. It&#8217;s always been missing from my life&#8230; I feel good, my back feels good. I&#8217;ve really been listening to my body and how I feel. I weigh about 215. I love the sport of professional wrestling, I love all the fans, and I appreciate everyone so much and everything that they&#8217;ve given to me. Their cheers and everything that goes along with the sport. I just feel like I need to give back. I don&#8217;t know, we&#8217;ll see what happens.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>Steamboat also talked about his father&#8217;s return to WrestleMania XXV, wrestling dozens of house show matches against Chris Jericho during WrestleMania and Backlash season, and more.<\/i><\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-2452717222\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pancakes and Powerslams Podcast with&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":57,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,4],"tags":[37,1261,101],"class_list":["post-14935","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interview_highlights","category-wwe_news","tag-nxt","tag-richie-steamboat","tag-wwe"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
