Colby Corino recently appeared on the Sports Guys Talk Wrestling podcast to hype up NWA 75, where he will challenge Kerry Morton for the Junior Heavyweight Championship.
During the interview, Corino discussed Morton’s title reign, where he showered the champ with praise but promised to dethrone him at the pay-per-view event later this month.
Man, I’ve known Kerry Morton for a long time. I think everyone’s just seeing what I’ve seen for years. I’ve wrestled him so many times, I think we’re 50-50 with the wins right now. I can’t take it away from him, he’s a talented wrestler. I used to watch him when he was fourteen years old rolling around just like I used to at Ring Of Honor. I’d be remiss to say he’s not talented, he’s one of the most talented wrestlers in the NWA, but that doesn’t mean I ain’t going to beat the brakes off him at NWA 75 either.
Corino later reiterates the beating that he’s going to give Morton at NWA 75.
I know he hates chops, so what I’ve been doing actually, I go up to the ring post and I just chop the ring post as hard as I can to make my hand harder like some ancient Chinese monk or something. I don’t know, I just feel like the second generation wrestlers have this thing where they get it a little bit differently. I see it in people that have only been wrestling and training for a couple of months, like we had Jarron Fulton at NWA Crockett Cup earlier this year and he’s super young in his career, but you can just tell that there’s something else there. Kerry has that in droves, not only does he just have that, he’s got something else on top of that. I feel like I got something else on top of that too.
