Jamie Noble discusses his upcoming final match: WWE Digital Exclusive
Hello everyone, Byron Saxton
here with a very special guest.
I am honored to have with me
a man who has contributed so
much to our industry throughout the years,
the one and only, Jamie Noble.
Jamie, how are you?
I'm good, yourself?
Very good, very good.
Jamie, big weekend ahead for you.
After seven years, you are returning to
the ring in your hometown of Charleston,
West Virginia,
which I'm gonna touch on in just a moment.
But there is a burning question that
a lot of people are curious about.
So I'm just gonna put it out there.
Can you tell me about apparently
a raccoon that you've adopted?
Yeah, yeah,
everybody loves the raccoon.
So I had some raccoons in my attic and
we went up there to kinda
see what was going on.
And it was a mom and
it had some little little babies, and
I accidentally chased it out I guess
where I got up there fooling around.
And the mom left and it left one of
the little little pups behind, and
the next thing I know I'm up there and
it's there.
So we we adopted it.
And now I got a baby raccoon.
You are braver than I am.
He's a handful.
It's a mess.
Everybody loves the raccoon.
[LAUGH] All right, so
let's get to the headline story here.
Charleston, West Virginia, your hometown,
at the Charleston Civic Center.
An arena where you actually attended
wrestling shows as a kid, and
now you're making your return to the ring.
I can't imagine the kinda thoughts
you've got going through your head.
I'm super excited.
When I was a kid, we'd go all the time.
But it was more Crockett promotion, so
be Dusty and Flair and my favorite,
the Rock N Roll Express.
So just everything just kinda fell
in line and I'm super excited.
I'm glad it's in West Virginia.
Glad everybody jumped on-board and
I'm ready to go.
Speaking of ready to go,
I know you've been putting in
a lot of work training-wise.
Which obviously it's been a while
since you've been inside of a ring.
How's your body feeling?
Good.
When I looked at the dates and
trying to get everything ready,
I was worried about our training camp and
how I'd hold up.
But it's been great.
It's obviously rough getting
used to going at it, and
some of these guys over here,
Regal's kid, Drew Gulak's came in.
So it's been challenging,
but I feel like I'm there.
I feel like they got me ready.
I plan on killing it.
Let's talk about your career as
a whole, which you've killed it.
You've had an amazing career.
You're entering career going
back to the days of WCW.
Competing around the world, working
most recently in WWE as a producer.
When you look at everything
you've accomplished,
what kind of a legacy do you
wanna leave on our industry?
Just that I played it forward.
I tried to help everybody,
you know what I mean?
Try to be a good coach.
Try to be a mentor.
Just try to teach and live through them.
I love helping Seth and Finn.
And I just wanna be remembered
that guy that passed it along and
then helped everybody as much as I could.
I know there's gonna be a lot of people
anticipating your return this Sunday.
Charleston, West Virginia at the
Charleston Civic Center, 7:00PM bell time.
For all the fans that are anticipating
the return on Jamie Noble,
what message do you have for them?
Thank them for their support,
you know what I mean?
Especially being the hometown.
I'm just gonna kill it, I'm excited.
Appreciate everybody coming out.
The phones have been blowing up and
lots of messages.
Tons of support from other athletes.
So I'm just super excited and
I'm gonna make the most of it.
Well, Jamie, on behalf of your WWE
family, we wish you the best of luck.
We'll be cheering you on.
Thank you very much.
