"We're live with one of WWE's newest rising stars he's a third generation Superstar , Detrick Cyrus." Jericho said." And now we're finally going to get the scoop on him."
"Hey Chris, and hey everybody." I replied into the headset it was an honor to be a guest on the Talk is Jericho podcast and I was extremely happy about it.
"I did a little bit of research on you before you came on and I found out you're apart of the Guerrero family, what was that like?" Chris asked.
"It was really kind of a challenge. I mean it was literally growing up being the black sheep of the family. I mean yeah like Eddie and Vickie, and even Chavo accepted me right off the bat but everyone else .you know it kind of took a while. But now when I think of family and those closest to me te Guerrero's come to mind. And I would like to think that in the 18 years I've known them, they consider me the same, whether I'm blood or not." I explained after thinking over my choice in words carefully.
"I've also heard you dated your sister Raquel briefly, how did that happen ?" Chris asked making me chuckle briefly.
"Well that's a funny story,like technically we were "family" but it really wasn't like we acted like brother and sister. Like we were close but at that time, I saw her more as a friend and you know with some friends you start to develop crushes and we attempted to date, but in the end it just really didn't work out and we became closer as family. Although we sometimes joke about it, like the stupid things we did when we're together that way" I replied with a small smile.
"Are you dating anyone now?"
"You had to ask that one man, Uh currently.I wouldn't really say I'm dating anyone but you know my situation so like it's complicated." I responded hoping my choice in words didn't get me killed later on.
"What was the moment when you realized you wanted to be a professional wrestler?"Chris asked.
"Honestly,it was before I was a little kid, I realized I did. When I was 3,4 I remember watching events in Mexico, AAA, CMLL, and watching WWE on TV and it just, I just knew when I was little kid, when I grew up., that is what I wanted to be, a professional wrestler. Of course, you know I graduated high school and college with a degree in business management, you know to be prepared."
"Its always great to have a plan A and plan B. But whats your favorite match ?"
"My favorite match in WWE history. Hmmm, you know Chris I've seen and been in so many matches that it's pretty much almost impossible for me to ask that one...you know I've seen them all so to say I have a favorite would be I probably think my favorite would be considered the Kurt Angle vs Brock Lesnar WM20 match. You know to see a big man do a highflying move like that and miss it, but still continue is incredible. I've seen people take bumps like that and get sidelined for months. And I've taken bumps like that so it was pretty intense. But yeah I probably think that was one of my all time favorites." I smiled fondly.
"Who was your biggest inspiration?" Chris asked
"Honestly and it's so ironic when I was a kid, before I was even adopted by him, Eddie was one of favorites, and considering like he was my dad after I already decided that I wanted to be like him made it even more mind blowing."
"Now you have two famous cousins trying to make their own marks too. Eddie Styles signed with the WWE in secret and made his debut not too long ago aiding you." Chris said pausing. " And your other cousin Katarina had a highly praised match up with Mia Yim at Shimmer not too long ago too."
"Eddie and Katrina. You know it's funny. They're the only blood family I'm close with. They're like siblings actually more than cousins. I love them to death and you know without them, I would've have had the big success that I've had in wrestling. They're like that family who you know you just need to be better. I love them and we've been like a cohesive unit since the first day we met"
"Thats all the time we have for now, nice chatting with you Detrick." Chris finished.
I'm on my way back to Eddie and I's hotel room tomorrow was RAW and I wanted to get some rest I decided to call out Kevin and Eddie would be having his debut match against Tyler Breeze so yeah pretty exciting.
"Cyrus." A british voice growled behind me, I froze up for a second before turning to face her.
"Paige, hey." I smiled looking around.
"Don't hey me, I'm mad at you mister." Paige said poking me in the chest." You have a great time with Becky and then stop talking to her to talk to Sasha."
"Its not like that." I say trying to defend myself
"Oh right, its just complicated right now." Paige said with an eye roll." All I know is my friend is upset and I'm mad."
"I'm sorry." I say rubbing the back of my neck.
"Yeah, well you need to fix this. Now!" Paige said before turning on her heel. I took a deep breath and walked into my hotel room. I couldn't dwell on this right now,I needed to stay focused on tomorrow no matter what.
