Sonny Kiss is arguably getting ready for his biggest wrestling match to date as he preps to square off against Cody Rhodes for the TNT Title tonight on AEW Fight For The Fallen, but did take some time this week to talk about his current accomplishments as well as musical tastes.
The Concrete Rose spoke with Darren Paltrowitz of Sportskeeda about what moments he hangs his All Elite hat on the most.
“There’s three off the top of my head. The first one is definitely being part of the Double Or Nothing battle royal because it was a huge moment for me. It was the first time I performed in front of that many fans. It was amazing feeling. Miss Sandra [Gray] did my gear. Also, it was the Billy Gunn spot that I had with him in the other battle royal on Dynamite. That was a cool moment.
“And choreographing, with the Roar, the Jacksonville Jaguars’ cheerleaders. That was a highlight for me because I got to work with these awesome, passionate girls who killed it and made my entrance and made my performance the bomb. Those are three of my favorites. (laughs)”
Sonny’s musical taste is a vast one, but one band that always keeps “Rollin'” for him is Limp Bizkit.
“My favorite band of all time is Limp Bizkit… They’re from Jacksonville… I met Fred [Durst of Limp Bizkit] one time at a concert. I went to a concert called Rock Allegiance, Limp Bizkit were the headliners there. Papa Roach, Motionless In White, ICP, so many people there.
“I saw Fred and Fred was like, ‘ooh, it’s the wrestler!’ That was so funny, I was so embarrassed, he singled me out. (laughs) He called the biggest Limp Bizkit fans onstage and I got on stage and it was super-duper cool.”
