“I feel like, one thing about me is I’m always up to any challenge. I’m a very curious person by nature. So even if it’s not something that I think I would fit in, I would still try it because I like that. I think for me, comedy is a good one. Action, drama, I could do drama. I could do some pretty good drama. Those are the main ones." (H/T Wrestletalk)

Ricky Starks attacked Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat on AEW Collision
CM Punk defended his "Real" World Championship on last week's episode of AEW Collision against Ricky Starks. WWE Hall of Famer Ricky Steamboat was the guest outside referee for the contest.
In the match's closing moments, Ricky Steamboat prevented Starks from scoring the pinfall victory by using the ring ropes for leverage. This angered The Absolute and allowed CM Punk to pin him.
Frustrated by the incident, Ricky Starks attacked the legend after the match and kept hitting him with his belt until Punk eventually made the save.
