Tyson Kidd on Teaming With Cesaro, Working With Dusty

Former WWE Tag Team Champion Tyson Kidd was recently interviewed by the Ottawa Sun to promote upcoming “Smackdown” tapings in the city.

Here are some of the highlights:

Becoming a WWE Superstar

“It’s so bizarre, I can’t tell you why, but in my mind I never had a backup plan. I always knew I would make it to WWE. Maybe that was the mindset I needed to get here. I don’t know who the 15-year-old was that thought this could happen. But I know the 35-year-old is happy that it did.”

Teaming with Cesaro

“I’m not comparing ourselves to them, but rewind the clock to the New Age Outlaws. It was Rockabilly (later, Bad Ass Billy Gunn) vs. the Real Double J (later, Road Dogg Jesse James) and the next thing you know everything clicks. We had a triple threat match with Dolph Ziggler. Go back and watch that match and you’ll see that foreshadowing and the chemistry developing.”

Getting assistance from Dusty Rhodes

“He’s been a huge influence. He helped me find my voice and he’d critique my body language. He has a very special eye. It’s a lot of little things together. The speaking part was obviously a huge part, but it was all the little things.”
