Flip Gordon Is Excited to Return to UK For ROH Honor Reunited, Praises Brandi Rhodes

– Flip Gordon spoke with WrestleZone for a new interview promoting the ROH Honor Reunited tour and more. Highlights are below:

On time flying in the business: “It goes so quick, like, I can’t even remember what I did last weekend. It’s weird because it flies by quick but it’s so long at the same time. It’s really weird. Like this week I had five days off, so by the time I’m wrestling again it’s like man, that felt like forever ago.”

On whether he prioritizes particular shows: “I kinda have a ‘first come first serve’ type of thing. Obviously I have favourite companies I like to work for so if they give me dates first I prioritise them, but mainly it’s first come first serve. I love wrestling everywhere, I love travelling, I love seeing new places.”

On being part of ROH’s Honor Reunited UK tour: “I haven’t been there since December, it’s been a while. So I’m excited to come, excited to see the fans again, and I know a lot of friends I have there. It’s a different type of environment over there. It’s a different crowd feel, but I love it. It’s so much fun and every single time I’ve been over there it’s been a blast. I’m very, very excited.”

On ROH’s growth as a company: “We’re growing every single month, especially partnering up with Rev Pro, CMLL and New Japan. So many guys get more opportunities, like my opponent in the tournament Kip. It’s his Ring of Honor debut, and that’s because of the partnership.”

On working against guys who use the British style: “I love wrestling guys that wrestle the British style. I love the way that our styles blend, and I used to be an amateur wrestler so it almost brings me back to those kinds of days. It’s fun.”

On his future on Being The Elite: “Gosh, I don’t even know. I mean, I gotta get booked for All In, Marty and Flip are taking Australia, I’m besties with Brandi Rhodes, there are so many different angles that could really pick up. I guess it truly depends on the fans and what they want. I’m excited to see where it goes because Being The Elite is the funnest time I’ve had in wrestling.”

On working with Brandi Rhodes: “She’s so talented. Obviously, there’s going to be so many haters, but she’s done such a great job in doing her and learning and getting better. Obviously, she got injured, but as soon as she heals up she wants to wrestle again. She’s not a quitter.”

On what fans can expect for the Honor Reunited tour: “Well, I’m super excited and whenever I’m this excited I tend to go all out – pun not intended! I’m gonna give 150%, it’s been so long since I’ve been in the UK and I wanna have the best matches I can, all the time but especially on this tour. You’re gonna get amazing matches, you’re gonna discover guys that you didn’t even know. It’s gonna be a great time.”
