In an interview with The Daily Star, Drake Maverick spoke about his smaller stature compared to other wrestlers in WWE and how he wouldn’t change it.

He said: ““I’m a small guy, I’m 5 foot 4 inches tall, and a lot of people will say that I shouldn’t even be here right now. I’m knocking down walls every damn day. It’s tough and it’s a slog, but I wouldn’t change it for anything in the world. I wouldn’t be as special if I wasn’t me, and this industry is about special people of different sizes. My friends are like Braun Strowman who is [7ft] big, man. That’s a special kind of human, and when you’re in airports, heads turn – heads don’t tend to turn when little James walks by. Give me a microphone or let me get in the ring, and that’s when everything changes. It’s all part of being a WWE Superstar and I wouldn’t change what I am or who I am for anything.
