Otis Addresses 'Being Sent Back' To WWE's Performance Center
The fun-loving SmackDown babyface is surprised WWE's decision became a big story.
WWE star Otis was surprised to see so many stories pop up online regarding rumours that Vince McMahon was sending a whole bunch of wrestlers back to the Performance Center for more seasoning.
During an interview with FOX's Ryan Satin, the SmackDown man said that he has been attending the PC regularly anyway. In fact, with a complete lack of house shows and weekly travel on his agenda, he's been relishing the chance to work on things at WWE's in-house training facility in Orlando.
Otis described the outrage online from fans as "kind of funny", because his desire to improve hasn't changed - he did say that it's "time to get better", but noted that even top stars like Braun Strowman use the PC as a training hub to hone their skills.
"We’re never not working here" is how Otis put it when Satin asked him to clarify.
He then went on to explain that he's always viewed the Performance Center as a "tool" everyone in WWE should use. It tickled him to see so many folks lose their minds due to recent reports that he and others were being "demoted".
