Curt Hawkins On Asking WWE For Losing Streak Merch, Talks Vince McMahon & More

WWE Superstar, Curt Hawkins was recently a guest on the Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast where he discussed various topics including his losing streak. Below are some highlights with a H/T to Rajah.com for the transcription.

On asking for losing streak merch:

“I thought of the t-shirt idea, and drew it up really crappy, but I sent it to a buddy of mine who is super talented with drawing and stuff. He made it look really nice and then I just knocked on Vince McMahon’s door and showed it to him. I told him that I had been with the company for 10 years now and I never had a shirt. I don’t think I am deserving of a shirt, but people are really getting into this thing and I had this t-shirt idea designed. I don’t know if he had something to do with it, but shortly after the t-shirt was made.”

How he thinks of Vince McMahon and what he believes Vince thinks of him:

“He’s obviously intimidating. He’s the ruler of professional wrestling, but I’ve always had a good rapport with him. I am very comfortable talking to him and things like that. I think he has seen me wrestle all these years and knows that I am a very serviceable pro wrestler and knows that I work hard every night, and I think he appreciates that. I’m not Roman Reigns, but as far as where he sees me on a star level, but there is a value of Curt Hawkins for sure. He has called me a good hand several times in meetings and to my face.”
