Flip Gordon Gives Update on His ROH Status, Talks Elite Forming AEW

– Flip Gordon spoke with WrestleZone for a new interview and discussed the status of his ROH contract and more. Highlights are below:

On his last few months: “The last few months have been really good for me. I feel like it’s been a constant grind. Just when it seems like I can let up, it gets even busier. I keep wanting to do more and more, and I think the more and more guys that go on to do other ventures, it opens up more opportunities for me which keeps me pushing hard. It’s been great.”

On working with Fight Forever Wrestling in the United Kingdom: “It was a really great promotion. I think that was my 8th time over in the UK, and that was by far the most fun I’ve had going over there. The talent they brought in was top notch, and I’m looking forward to coming back over this year not only with Ring of Honor but also with Fight Forever again. They took such good care of me.”

On deathmatches: “This is art, and there’s different forms of art. I love all styles of professional wrestling. I love hardcore matches, and that’s why I was so excited to be able to work with Jimmy Havoc. Would Flip Gordon do a deathmatch? If the price was right and if the story was right. I’m not saying I would or wouldn’t do one, but if the meaning was there, then absolutely.”

On the Elite going to All Elite Wrestling: “I found out at the same time as everyone else when it was broken online on Being The Elite. I think what they’re doing is amazing, it’s crazy, it’s never been done before, but I wish them nothing but the best and I’m so proud of them.”

On his contract status: “Right now I’m under contract with Ring of Honor til May 2020, so that’s gonna be my main focus. Another focus of mine will be going back to Japan, as well as doing a lot more of my international travel. I’m still young and I’ve got a lot of learning to do, and that’s my main goal.”
