You can read a highlight from Vidal and listen to the full episode below.

On his iconic moment in his Impact career: “My most rewarding moment, even though it happened my first time at IMPACT, was just being in the ring with Eric Young. I thought it was so cool. Here’s somebody who I’d always see on TV when I was younger. I’d see him in IMPACT, as well as other companies and I was like eye to eye with him. It was one of those moments where I had to think to myself to be in the moment, it was the inner voice in my head that said ‘Woah, you’re doing this right now. You’re here.’ That, to me, was my most rewarding moment. Then, being able to go backstage and see all of these wrestlers I see on TV giving me props for what I did out there… that was cool to me.”
