Bhupinder Gujjar says he learned a lot throughout his time working with Brian Myers.

Gujjar will challenge Myers for the IMPACT Digital Media Championship in a Ladder Match on the September 22 episode of IMPACT Wrestling. This will be the third bout between the two stars; Myers has previously defeated Gujjar twice.

Speaking with Riju Dasgupta of Sportskeeda Wrestling, Gujjar discussed his experience working with the veteran.

“Excitement, nervousness. When you’re nervous, you don’t want to hurt someone bad, especially like Brian Myers. He’s got so much experience in this business, like I have no clue. I never got a chance to work [with] him before so I had no clue, but I used to watch him, and I didn’t have an exact idea like how he could perform,” Gujjar said.

He continued by describing how facing Myers taught him a lot. Gujjar also noted that he got positive feedback after their matches together, which has motivated him to keep pushing forward.

“He’s great, I have to say, and the way he performs, I have to match the energy he brings to the ring. That was one of my biggest concerns at that point in time. I was like, I can’t look weak. I was preparing for this match for years, especially having a match with Brian Myers. I can say it was my dream to have a match with all these legend wrestlers, all these senior wresters. So when I got a chance, I was like shocked for a second, for a couple of minutes. I was like, okay, this is big. I can’t let anyone down now, all eyes on me. I have to give my 100%. We had a great three or four matches, and all went well. I heard great and got compliments about my wrestling style. People told me I deserve to be here. Listening to all these from all those senior wrestlers backstage, it means a lot to me. It motivates me and now I’m at a whole next level, I can say that. Working with him taught me a lot, like how should I do the camera work, the selling, how to build my comeback, how to work with IMPACT’s audience, how to work with people when you’re in the ring. You have to crazy inside the ring because once you’re enjoying it, people can enjoy with you, too. So I learned from him. His wrestling style is like me, and I like to have the matches where we can present ourselves. It’s a new experience for me, so that was great,” Gujjar said.

Heath recently stated that he wants to see Gujjar pull off a Razor Ramon-style gimmick. You can check out his comments here.
