“The Future” Frankie Kazarian has been all over the net doing interview after interview, answering the same questions over and over. However on World-Wrestling Radio, when Frankie appeared, it was a breathe of fresh air so to speak with questions that haven’t been asked ever, or in a long time. Here are some keypoints:

— Frankie was asked if a return to Ring of Honor was in the future, as well as a return to TNA. He explained that he has a 90 day clause in his contract, and can’t return anytime soon.

— As far as Vince McMahon telling cruiserweights to tone it down, Frankie said there is some truth to it, but he wasn’t approached to tone it down. He then said that has no factor in him deciding to leave WWE. Kazarian said that there were many factors, but mainly he just wasn’t happy.

— He tells people who want to get in the business to have a backup plan. You need to be trained right, none of that backyard crap.

— When asked about the backstage atmosphere in the WWE, Kazarian replied by saying there isn’t really an atmosphere. He just did his own thing backstage.

— A personal question was brought up, about his interest in the rock band Metallica. Kazarian said he’s attended about 15 concerts.

That’s just a fraction of what was discussed and brought up in this nearly 20 minute interview with the former WWE superstar. He also discussed Vince McMahon telling Paul London to “be a better worker”, his thoughts on Steven Richards and so much more! You can hear the entire interview in the latest episode of World-Wrestling Radio LIVE.
