– During a recent edition of Busted Open Radio, Zachary Wentz discussed his recent WWE NXT return and the reunion of The Rascalz. Below are some highlights (via WrestlingInc.com):

On the fans chanting welcome back: “There is nothing like the ‘Welcome Back’ chants. There is nothing like it. It’s validation, especially being able to be Zachary Wentz, a name that I had on the indies and had to go through the grind. To be able to use that on WWE television is amazing. I was talking to Tommy (Dreamer) last night. The fans knowing our Rascalz wave.”

On the fan reaction to their entrance: “If you watch our entrance, so many people are doing the wave. Not that I never thought that would happen, but especially after the run and changing to MSK, I just didn’t know if the Rascalz could ever make it to WWE TV as the Rascalz. It’s a blessing. It’s years of building this brand as The Rascalz. Me, Wes, Trey, and Myron (Reed). I couldn’t be happier.”

On last night’s edition of WWE NXT TV, The Rascalz defeated Gallus in a tag team bout.
