In an exclusive interview with PWMania.com’s Lee Tarrier,
former WWE star Luke Gallows opened up about his career
journey, his role in The Undertaker’s iconic Boneyard Match
at WrestleMania, his WWE exits and returns, Vince McMahon’s
surprise comeback, and more. You can read the entire
interview by clicking here.
Here are some highlights:
On the Boneyard Match and WWE release days later:
“It really was a whirlwind. We came back in 2019, reunited
as the OC, and went into WrestleMania for The Undertaker’s
last match. I got thrown to my death, Carl took the final
Tombstone ever—and then, just 11 days later, we were
unceremoniously fired.”
On Vince McMahon’s 2022 return:
“Yeah, when we came back in October of 22 it felt great. It
felt fresh. It felt new. And then, you know, a few short
months later, we're in New York, and we're getting ready to
leave the building, and a limousine pulls up, and we see a
mustachioed man pop out, and it was Vince McMahon coming
back for the first time. We happen to see him in the parking
garage. And I don't know what goes on behind closed doors
there, but from that point on, everything certainly got
weird, whether it was the Vince thing and then the eventual
sale to TKO and however that timeline worked, but you know,
you could feel again, the winds of change.”
On leaving WWE without bitterness:
“Not at all. There’s no bitterness, no hard feelings. You
just keep on trucking. That’s what you do.”
Gallows also opened up about working with CM Punk in the
Straight Edge Society, his time with AJ Styles and Karl
Anderson in The Club, and his current ventures outside WWE.
