Let me first say, I enjoyed myself there but I didn\u2019t quite understand \u2014 this is my experience \u2014 I didn\u2019t quite really understand what was going on, what was really gonna be asked of me. I know they expressed certain ideas and I ended up going on a tour of Germany and then when I came back, it\u2019s like everything kinda changed up. Like all this stuff happened and I\u2019m like, \u2018Wait, what am I doing? What\u2019s going on?\u2019 So it was more-so, that was my experience with MLW. Something about a contract was mentioned to me but nothing was ever further discussed and honestly, I was in the mindset of I didn\u2019t wanna sign with anyone. I just came out of a two-year deal with Evolve and I didn\u2019t really wanna sign with another company at that point. I just wanted to kinda freelance and get around and just keep learning and keep growing anyway. But, that was my experience. I had a good time working with Tom Lawlor and Simon Gotch, shoutout to them. Just interact with people. I had a good time. Linking up with Jason Cade and getting on the PS4 or whatever. I had a really good\u2026 I had a good time but as far as that [a contract], I didn\u2019t really know what they were trying to do. It just is what it is.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Yehi on black wrestlers forming their own wrestling company to spotlight black talents:<\/b> &#8220;It\u2019s something. I read Lou Thesz\u2019s book like five times, <i>Hooker<\/i>. So I read that like five times, man. It\u2019s [racism] deep in the roots. It is what it is. Professional wrestling here in the U.S., it\u2019s white-dominated, it\u2019s white-ran and of course in Japan, they have their thing and in Mexico they have their thing and for the longest time, being a black performer, we were seen as the minority. In my opinion, we were the minority even if there was a Japanese worker on that show or whatever. You\u2019d bring in the Mexican talent, the blacks were always the foreigner and the reason being because, the Japanese, they have their own. Mexico, they have their own. They have two or three major companies if I\u2019m not mistaken and Japan has five, six, maybe seven in theirs and here in the US, everything is pretty much \u2014 the major companies are white-owned. Problem is, black performers, we\u2019re striving to make a name for ourselves on these other platforms that are not owned or dominated by us and because of that, only a percentage of us really get those opportunities and [an] even smaller percentage of us reach a certain level of a higher success.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And it kinda sucks because it puts us in a situation where we have to compete against ourselves, which I see it a lot where it\u2019s a shame where you don\u2019t really hear, \u2018Well who is the best Japanese talent? Who\u2019s the best Mexican talent?\u2019 You don\u2019t really hear that. You hear that about the black talent, because we don\u2019t have something for ourselves. I put up a post on Twitter about a week ago and I just wanna clarify it. I\u2019m not at all pushing for a segregation. We, black performers, we have to be liberated from that whole system and we need to design a system for ourselves where we create our own stars, we create black stars and we don\u2019t depend on these major companies to do that for us. So, that\u2019s very important. I believe that\u2019s a change that needs to take place and I believe there are several other black wrestlers like myself who are taking those actions and who are taking that approach. We\u2019re not just waiting for opportunities, we have to build something for ourselves and will we see, will we reap all the benefits in this generation? Who knows but, we could be very well blazing that trail for the next generation of black wrestlers coming up but I think that\u2019s a pretty important \u2014 it\u2019s important we actually \u2014 I\u2019m glad more and more of us are waking up to that, because again, it\u2019d be so phenomenal to see 20 black-owned wrestling territories running here in the U.S. and whatnot and then from there, venturing overseas or what have you but that\u2019s the thing, we need that. We really do. There\u2019s too many, too many, too many of us who are just so talented and it\u2019d be a shame trying to waste all of that talent trying to get onto someone else\u2019s thing. No, build our own. We need to build our own at this point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Yehi on a possible &#8216;Catch Point&#8217; reunion and being one of the Evolve roster members that hasn&#8217;t been signed:<\/b> &#8220;I mean, my thoughts on it is this; obviously we\u2019re all in different places and I could speak on my story. I think it\u2019s very interesting that \u2014 actually, I saw an old Evolve card. Someone sent me [it] and said, \u2018Hey, what do you think of this?\u2019 And basically everyone on this card went [on] to get signed to major deals whether it was WWE, AEW or going off to New Japan and it was like, \u2018Man, I\u2019m the only one on the card that didn\u2019t get that shot\u2019 and I think that\u2019s pretty interesting and I think it\u2019s pretty cool, and that\u2019s just my story. That\u2019s just my story. I\u2019ve always made it a point to treat everyone with respect and be a professional and you know, I\u2019ve accepted that possibly, none of that stuff was meant to be in the deck of cards for Fred Yehi. Perhaps that was the case. Perhaps that\u2019s the case just for the next couple of years. Who knows? Anything could happen, we don\u2019t really know but I know where my heart is now, but that\u2019s just what is what \u2014 that\u2019s just my story. I can\u2019t really explain why it has happened that way and why it is what it is at this point. But as far as Catch Point reuniting, I could see it as a really cool thing. Would I be interested in it? I\u2019m kinda 50\/50 on it. Again, we\u2019re all in different points of our careers right now and I would have to make that decision of, \u2018Hey, would that be best for me?\u2019 I\u2019d have to make that decision but, again, for now I know where my heart is for now so\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/q6XYGQoTdnI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\"
