Simon Gotch was recently interviewed by For The Win. He spoke on a wide variety of topics about his WWE career as a member of the Vaudevillains. He also spoke about his future in wrestling after the WWE, where he will be wrestling under the name: Simon Grimm.

After his WWE release, there was a rumor floating around that Gotch was involved in an incident in catering at the Smackdown after Wrestlemania 33. Only a day later, it was announced that Gotch was released from the company.

During the interview, Gotch tells his side of what happened:

“The actual story is that it happened at WrestleMania. I was sitting in catering and the chair I was in was kinda flimsy. I go to shift in it and it just collapses underneath me. Being a ham, my immediate reaction was to demand someone pin me. ‘Someone pin me quick.’ The guy who comes over, I think he works for us. I didn’t realize he was a local technician and was not a WWE technician. He was someone who worked on the set at ‘Mania. He came to help me up and I’m like, ‘Nope, you gotta pin me. C’mon, man.’ And he’s not going along with the bit. He thinks I just fell and he’s trying to help me. I see the bit’s going nowhere so I take the chair and I just kick it off to the side, drop it like a little punt and let it lay where it lands. That was it. I saw the story online, saying that I fell in the chair and made this big scene and was yelling and screaming. No part of that is accurate.”

Gotch also shut down a rumor circulating that he was involved in an incident with his tag team partner: Aiden English.
