NWA World Heavyweight Champion Nick Aldis recently spoke with WrestlingInc.com to talk about a wide range of topics including being open to facing Triple H and wanting to defend at MSG and who he would like to face. Here are the highlights:
Potential opponents:
“There are a lot of guys. For me, there is no doubt in my mind that at some point, somewhere, somehow, Marty Scurll and I need to square off for the NWA Worlds Championship,” stated Aldis. “It is 15 years in the making; two kids who came from the middle of nowhere in England that people laughed at the idea of us being wrestlers. With parents who thought this was all a phase, that we would grow out of it. For him to have done what he’s done, the DIY way, everywhere I’ve went I’ve told people they have to take a look at this guy. For him to be where he is, one of the most successful guys, he’s like the “Rowdy” Roddy Piper of the modern era; he can do anything and go anywhere, he doesn’t need a belt. But, when the time is right, to tell that story, 15 years back with all of that history, to the point now of us both reaching our primes, that is the one I want.”
Triple H:
“We can have championship matches with anyone, anywhere,” said Aldis. “I’ve put it out there on Busted Open that Hunter has a replica of the Ten Pounds of Gold on his wall, supposedly. If he wants a shot at the real one all he has to do is pick up the phone. I’m not a hard guy to find. That’s just one option, there is no reason why that can’t happen. They are not taking us up on it, but if he did, we would be there.”
