We spoke to Davey Boy Smith Jr, who says he's been enjoying his time in MLW.
When asked if he'd re-sign with WWE, he said that if the did, it would only be for the paycheck and doesn't believe his heart would be into the content they produce. After the last go around, he was glad they paid him well to spend his time getting in shape, but said that doing that also was costly for him. He reiterated that the gimmick WWE had planned for him was the Stampede Stud, which he was actually pretty excited for. He thought his dark matches in the company went well, and he said that Vince McMahon told him he looked good. Smith was supposed to debut for the Smackdown brand before he was fired.
As of now, Smith is in MLW, and working with Bret Hart in the Dungeon Wrestling company. He says he's very happy to be working with his cousins, the Billington Bulldogs. He said that they didn't keep in touch as often as he'd liked before they came to MLW, but has liked doing work with them, as well as with Alex Kane. He spoke highly of the creative freedom in MLW, but admitted the no ropes catch wrestling match was an MLW pitch to him, not one of his own.
