Unlike his brother Elias, Ezekiel was able to jump straight past NXT to the main roster and said he’s right where he wants to be. Ezekiel did an in-character interview with KTAL News promoting WWE’s Saturday Night’s Main Event in Louisiana this weekend and you can see a couple of highlights below:

On if he would benefit from going to NXT: “You know, I’m very blessed. I was able to skip the whole NXT process, get right to the main roster. I think I’m growing leaps and bounds, way more than I would anywhere else. And I’m getting to mix it up with the top talent in the world on Monday night Raw, every week, sometimes SmackDown. So that’s definitely where I want to be.”

On his dream WrestleMania opponent: “You know, there’s a couple. One, I’d love to go one-on-one with my brother, I think that would just be a dream match. Me and him at WrestleMania, in front of the world, that would be incredible. On top of that though,m I gotta say, Shawn Michaels was always my favorite wrestler, the Heartbreak Kid. So that is a dream match for sure.”
