The main event of last night’s episode of Monday Night Raw was a first-time-ever match between Main Event Jey Uso and the Mad Dragon Ilja Dragunov. It was the quarter-final match in the King of The Ring tournament. Despite giving everything he had, Dragunov was unable to get the win. Following his tough loss, he was interviewed backstage by Cathy Kelly.
During the Digital Exclusive interview, Ilja Dragunov mentioned that it is frustrating that he has lost the match and is in pain. The Mad Dragon claimed that when he is in pain he is a monster and the rest of the locker room should be careful.
“I mean, what should I say? It’s so frustrating. It is. But I mean, like where is actually the shame to lose to the man they call the Main Event, right? All I know right now, I’m in… I’m tired, I’m in pain. But the beauty of it is that I’m already very dangerous in this ring. But when I’m in pain, I’m an entire monster.”
The former NXT Champion also mentioned that he predicts that no one in the Monday Night Roster is safe with the Czar lurking around.
“Predictions? I mean, they both are like the absolute bar. The only prediction I can make is for myself. And this prediction is, no one is safe anymore. And to quote… Yeah… To quote Shawn Michaels, what he said, ‘I’m what the kids call a real problem.’ Thank You,” Ilja Dragunov said.
