Former World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger chatted with the Huffington Post in the United Kingdom to preview WWE’s tour of Europe and the upcoming television tapings. Below are some of the highlights.
On which legend he would most like to most face in a dream match:
“That’s a good question. I have always been a fan of Scott Hall (Razor Ramon). He’s always been one of my favorites and he has one thing that you just don’t get on TV anymore… and that’s chest hair! I think we need tons and tons more chest hair. I can’t grow any so don’t expect it from me. But seriously, I think a Scott Hall/Razor Ramon and Jack Swagger would have an unbelievable match.”
If Adam Rose is attempting to make a name of himself at the former champion’s expense:
“I don’t really see this as him making his name at my expense, rather I see this as about the future. WWE is going to continue to develop young talent from NXT and that will be driving the competition up on the main roster. I’m always a firm believer that competition makes everyone better, makes our product better, makes our roster better and it’s going to make the matches and what we deliver even better – so only good things can come from such competition.”
He also discussed NXT and the mass amount of talent it has been producing. However, Swagger signaled out one name to look out for:
“They’ve got so much amazing talent down at NXT. The one I’m most familiar with is Sami Zayn. I’ve been in the ring with him personally and was very impressed by his talent, athleticism and charisma- so he’s going to be one to look out for.”

Editor’s Note:
Never thought about a match between Ramon and Swagger, but that would actually be one heck of a feud for a mid-card title. Man…
