The 2016 WWE Draft was a stressful night for everybody. Not only did roster members from Raw, SmackDown Live and NXT not know which brand they were going to end up on, but certain Superstars were asked to give their genuine reactions during live interviews on the WWE Network.

Cesaro’s interview was particularly memorable, as he essentially criticised WWE’s storyline decisions and questioned why he was being asked about General Managers, but Kalisto’s botched interview was what really stole the show.

Asked for his opinion on joining SmackDown Live, he repeatedly messed up his words before closing with this unforgettable sentence:

“I am here to stay and make… and make… er, er… a good Lucha, Lucha… thing.”

The “Lucha thing” comment is still made fun of to this day by fans, but at least Kalisto saw the funny side by giving his take on his botched promo during a reflective WWE interview (above) two years later.
