Kenny Omega Works The Ass & CM Punk's Speedo Weirdos: 10 Things You May Have Missed In Wrestling In August 2021

2. Feel Old Yet?

If you're looking at a picture of the babyfaced Jungle Boy, odds are you probably do feel old. Unless, of course, you are a literal baby yourself. 

The enviable AEW star was a guest on Oral Sessions with Renee Paquette this month, discussing his late father Luke Perry, original desire to become a Hollywood stuntman, relationship with Anna Jay and much more. 

He also talked about something that I am sure will make some readers feel really, really old when he mentioned the group that got him back into wrestling again after becoming a lapsed fan (he did some training when he was 10 years-old). 

"I was a freshman in high school and I remember I was kind of on a date with this girl who was a sophomore. And she was at my house, and it was kind of awkward and I didn’t know what to say. I put the TV on for some background noise or whatever and we got to talking and all that. Somehow I sat on the remote or whatever it was and it flipped on to wrestling. 

I saw it out of the corner of my eyes and went 'ugh what is this?'. I thought 'I'll just watch 'til the commercial and then changed it'. And then I ended up watching three hours of it with this girl sitting right there. I was back in and I was hooked again. I think The Shield was just becoming a big thing. I had been out for awhile so I had never seen any of those guys. And I remember thinking 'this is neat'".

And look at little Jack Perry now. Now he DRIVES the school bus! 

Check out the whole interview if you get the chance, it's really good.
