Lio Rush discusses his new single, working with Bobby Lashley and his WWE run (Exclusive)

One of my favourite spots ever was something many people found controversial - your no-sell of a powerbomb from atop a ladder through a table. Did you know it was going to cause such a stir, or was it spur of the moment?

That story is so crazy! I know it's been covered by Joey [Janela] before, and that entire spot was not supposed to happen like that! This was me and Joey's fourth or fifth match in CZW after a long feud, and this was the blow-off right before I went to WWE.

The spot was supposed to be a powerbomb off the second rope through a table. That was it. I wasn't supposed to get up, I wasn't supposed to do anything. I remember messing with the table in the ring and both the legs were broken, like the screws were gone. I told Joey in the ring, "Hey, man, if we move this table," because it was already set up, "it's gonna break. Wherever we are right now, let's just think of something so that we can do the table spot successfully without having to get a, 'You f***ed up" chant'."

We saw the table was positioned in front of the ladder and thought, "Okay, let's just do something off the ladder." I remember him telling me to climb up the ladder and telling me, "I'm going to powerbomb you off the ladder, I want you to stand up." I was like, "Uh, okay," so it was actually Joey's idea, but I got the backlash because I was the one who stood up. It was pretty crazy.
