Cameron Grimes Talks Carmelo Hayes Bout, WrestleMania Tickets Sale, Raw Preview | Fight Size
Here is your fight size update for Monday, February 14, 2022:
– Cameron Grimes previewed his match with Carmelo Hayes at Vengeance Day while speaking to Sports Illustrated:
“I sound different, I look different and I act different,” Grimes says. “Everyone should tune in. This is a huge match. I’ve never wrestled Carmelo Hayes before. We could be in for a five-star match, or we could be in for a one-star match where the only star is Cameron Grimes.
“Whether it’s Tuesday or whether it’s a year from now or whether it’s 10 years from now, I’m going to be a champion in WWE. I’m a rider. I’ve committed to this job; I’ll do whatever it takes. No matter what, I’m going to the moon.”
– Talking to Women’s Wrestling Talk, Mickie James Talks about facing Tasha Steelz on No Surrender:
Well, obviously my mindset is a lot different than as it was going into Deonna. Because Deonna and I had such a feud. Up to this, like, aside from, you know, just here recently since Tasha won the Ultimate X match. The first woman to win an Ultimate, the first ever Ultimate X match. You know, she’s had a lot of momentum behind her, and she’s had a lot to say about it, which I appreciate. She’s got a lot of sass. I felt like the first time I really I’d seen and heard Tasha prior to but the first time I really saw her saw her was at the Knockouts Knock down and I said then this girl star. She’s got…she’s just got that it factor. She’s a great talker. She clearly loves to talk and loves to hear herself talk a lot as well. So, I’m excited about the match. And I think that too, like she’s gonna challenge me in a different way that I haven’t been challenged yet. So I think it’s gonna be a great matchup. As far as that goes. I don’t intend on losing my championship to her or to anyone anytime soon, especially in New Orleans because it’s such a great city and we’re going to have to have a Mardi Gras party afterwards to celebrate. But yeah, no, it’s gonna be awesome. I really liked Tasha a lot, aside from some of the things she’s had to say, and a lot of her sass, but I do appreciate her ability. And she’s a firecracker. And I really don’t know what to expect, because it’s different, she’s a much different competitor than Deonna. Who training for and against last time. So yeah, I’m excited.
