Savio Vega is a name that many current WWE fans are familiar with. But from 1993 to 1999, he wrestled for WWE under the ring name Kwang. During a recent interview with the WINCLY podcast, Vega opened up about his time in WWE.

On the Attitude Era:

“That era was a big time. Everybody that was working at that time say it was a great era. The houses were packed all the time. What’s happening right now, to be honest, I don’t follow too much what’s going on in WWE because of my work. I see bits and pieces here and there.”

On replacing Shawn Michaels at the 1998 No Way Out PPV:

“What happened was that Shawn Michaels got hurt, his lower back was out of place and the doctor said he could not wrestle. So they replaced him with me and I enjoyed the match. I wrapped Mick Foley with barbed wire and it was kinda a crazy match. I saw that match a couple of months ago and I was laughing at what was going on. Some guys send me matches sometimes that I don’t even remember happening and I show them to my kids. But I replaced Shawn because he was hurt.”
