-Thank you for your time Icarus for this interview and i hope you are healthy? 

Thank you for having me! Yes, I'm doing really good!

-How did you get into the Wrestling business ? 

When I was a kid I always saw some footage but in Hungary you can rarely catch it on TV. My current tag team partner, and college Dover was my neighboor so we grew up together and  we played with every wrestling game what ever released and started hunting videos from the internet with the 56K back then, so it was really hard to get any correct footage or info about this magical world. We started to train ourselves after DVDs and books but it was hard beacause pro-wrestling existed in Hungary back then around the '40s, just it got banned by every regime we've had, so it slowly dissapeared from our country. We knew that, it can be our time to rebuild everything, and we did.
I became a Superhero who will take every risk for his people and shows them an alternate way to live and help to others.

-What is your family thinking of your passion for the sport, are they worried about your health? 

My parents were teachers and researchers in many Universities in Hungary, so they always wanted me in a intellectual scene, but I chosed the Media and Pro-Wrestling. They always worried about me, but after they saw that we created our dreams in many forms they accepted it. They helped me a lot, so I thank for them here too.

-What can you say about your Coach and how long did it take, that it was clear for you to do the first match? 

My first coach was Gabirel Angelfyre (NED) who was the first foreigner wrestler in Hungary. I already made my debut, so the proper knowledge came first with him. After he put us to the map, we had the opportunities to participate on seminars and learn as much as we could. I still join on every seminar, because there's always something new or different.

-Icarus do you remember your first Pro Wrestling match and what was it like to wrestle in front of an live crowd for the first time? 

Yes, it was in 2010. From now looking back I can't call it a wrestling match, but there was no other opportunity back then. We made a tag team match (László Árpád & me vs Dover & J-Hawk) as a special performance on a pro-box event. The corwd was shocked haha.

-Which wrestlers did impress you so much, that you wanted to step in the ring by yourself? 
Almost everyone who stepped in the ring. Of course when I was a kid mostly the highflyers, cruiserweights and strong stlye wrestlers amazed me, because I always knew that I'll never be a giant powerhouse, so I tried to stay as close to the reality as it was possible. Jeff Hardy, Rey Mysterio, Amazing Red, Davey Richards, Low Ki, PAC/Neville, El Generico/Sami Zayn, Prince Devitt/Finn Bálor, Paul London, Brian Kendrick and many more.

-You wrestle in the H.C.W.,what can you tell us about this Company? 
Yes, Hungarian Championship Wrestling is my home. I'm one of the founders of this promotion and we started to make free shows in a parking lot, and now we already made many TV shows with contracts, live events and extra things like in videoclips and so. Our crowd is between 800-1200 and they're one of the craziest and loudest fans ever! I love them all! HCW is a really colorful and complex promotion with many styles, gimmicks, and inring.

-And where did you see yourself in 5 years from now? 

I hope I can make a great run in Europe-Japan-USA and make a career where I truly belong. 

-Which country you would love to visit next and wrestle? 

Scottland and Germany mostly. I've never been in the UK, and only once in Germany, so I really miss those experiences.

-When a booker or company will book you where can they contact you? 

Through my Facebook account. 

-Is there anything else you would like to let my readers know? 

Check out our youtube channel (www.youtube.com/hcwhungary) and support pro-wrestling, because if everyone can work together we can create a very special world where we can live in happines and peace!

Help everywhere you can and don't rush!

 

Danke schön!
