Later today on October 12th, Slater is scheduled to face off with Je’Von Evans for the TNA X-Division Championship at Bound For Glory in a bout showcasing two of the hottest young stars in professional wrestling today.
While speaking to WhatCulture in a new interview, Leon Slater was asked about his upcoming match with Je’Von Evans, noting that it may be the youngest dream match ever.
“It does, and I think that’s very fair for you to expect, and I think that’s what we’re going to deliver on. I think, like you said, me and Je’Von, the show stealers on our respective brands, and I feel like we’ve been on this parallel path where he’s been killing it on NXT, I’ve been killing it on TNA, and now those paths are finally crossing at Bound for Glory. I feel like it might be the youngest dream match ever. Like, I can’t think of another time in professional wrestling where two people, even under 25, you know what I mean? Or never mind under 23, have had this much anticipation, this much hype for a match, you know what I mean? So… it’s a- it’s another chance to make history and break some records, and I think that’s exactly what we’re going to do on Sunday.”
Elsewhere in another recent interview, Slater noted that it will be like wrestling himself at Bound For Glory. You can read more about that here.
