Lio Rush has some big goals for himself in the next two years before he reaches the age of 30.
Major League Wrestling‘s Lio Rush was a recent guest on INSIGHT with Chris Van Vliet to discuss a wide variety of subjects. When asked about what goals he’d like to accomplish by the time he’s 30 years old, Rush said he’d like to become a world champion.
“I really want to be a world champion. I feel like I’m more than capable,” Lio Rush said. “I think it’s possible anywhere. I think there’s probably some more steps that need to happen in order to get to that in certain places. It’s not going to be the same process in like a MLW than like a WWE or a New Japan or AEW. It’s just different systems, different fan bases, different ways of going about things.
“But I feel like I have the work ethic to be a world champion. I feel like I have the story to be a world champion. I feel like a lot of people can get behind me. I feel like me being as open as I am sometimes works out in my favor. And I don’t like using the word influencer or anything like that, but I feel like I have influenced a lot of people, whether they’re fans or current wrestlers.
“This new generation of wrestlers, I feel like I’ve had multiple times where wrestlers would come up to me and say like, ‘Man, I was 15 watching you when you were in Ring of Honor,’ and I’m like, man, it kind of like blows my mind. Yeah, I definitely feel like it’s possible.”
