Israel Adesanya on His Favorite Wrestling Themes
“Top five, top five. Rey Mysterio is definitely one of them. Boom, cool finishing move, 619. I’m gonna say The Rock, definitely. Then when you hear the, if you smell. Stone Cold. When you hear the glass shatter, you know what the f**k’s happening. I was at WrestleMania last year. It was a secret or surprise, but I kind of had a feeling he was going to pull up. But when I heard the glass shatter, I lost my f**king mind, and even Oscar was in the crowd with two bears in his hands, like, “Hell, yeah, bah!’ Who else? Let me think. You know what? Stacey Keibler was nice.
“Oh, [he’s] The Godfather, the one with the chicks. The Ho Train. Yeah, I remember him. Yeah, because we were watching wrestling with our family. So at certain times, as a kid, you just kind of have to like, ‘Oh, what’s he doing?’ But one more, I’d say… Yeah, you got to add in there. No D.I. She’s legit.”

>One more, I’d say right now, Oba Femi. I really like the way he just moves. I think the way he’s carrying WWE right now. He’s the guy. He’s just like, he’s got that swagger. So shout out to Oba Femi. It’s not Oba; it’s Oba Femi. That’s the guy right now.”
