Miro was recently interviewed by WhatCulture, where he spoke about the current state of the TNT Championship--- which he no longer holds.
"Well, itās the man that creates the title, not the title that creates the man. I think everything I did with that title [TNT Championship] was the fruits of my labor. The title didnāt come with all this heaviness. I mean, it came from Darby [Allin] which is a great competitor but, you know, it was ā weāre just such different people, such a different style and then everybody that came after that, they tried to take it but thatās just not possible. When I hang onto something, itās mine and unfortunately, the Sammy Guevara thing came in, he landed on my balls, letās not forget about that. The finish [of our TNT Title match], he did the four-70,000-do-whatever-the-thing is. I was preparing to protect myself, he landed right on my balls and you canāt kick out of that, nobody can. So I donāt even take fault of that but I take fault ā I take a fault of maybe being too good of a champion because ever since I lost that title, that title has gone to sh*ts and thatās nothing but to blame Sammy Guevara for that, so heās got to bear the cross for that."
On The Redeemer gimmick:
"It wasnāt planned for years, it wasnāt planned at all [The Redeemer character]. It was just thinking, āWhat do we do? Who am I?ā Thatās what I was thinking, āWho am I?ā I know Tony [Khan] brought me as the gamer guy, as the Twitch guy but I know thatās not me and I know that wasnāt matching the work I do. Iām a vicious animal. Iām going out there, Iām gonna rip your heart out and I understandā¦ I gave it a go, you know? I did the ā I was brought with a purpose to be āThe Best Manā, to be the best man of their wedding [Kip Sabian & Penelope Ford], which okay, I had two weddings. Iāve been married on TV, off TV, I was able to do that. But then soon after that, when everything started going downhill with Kip, especially I wanted to keep that streak alive. You know, I started professional wrestling in WWE with a hot streak of a year. I wanted to do that same thing here. But after Kip kind of screwed me over, he lost that Arcade Anarchy match. You know, it was clear that his goal was somewhere else. He was focused on his wife and I canāt blame him, I was young before. I used to care about my wife more but now itās not about that. Itās about where you wanna go and I wanna be the champion, I wanted to be the TNT Champion, now All-Atlantic Champion, I wanna be world champion and I canāt do that by putting my wife always first. I have to be focused on my career and I started doing what I know what I do. I had to disconnect myself from Kip, thatās why I had to kind of punish him if you will, broke his little arm. Literally, broke his little arm on that door and I just told Tony now, āThis is what we do. Iām gonna be meā and because heās a great boss, he let me run with the ball. He gave me the ball, he said, āDo what you gotta doā and Iām doing exactly that. Heās not there ā heās not telling me not to smile, not to look at the people, not to do this and that. Heās giving me a clean go and thatās what Iām doing, thatās why I signed a multi-year deal because he let me do all these opportunities. If it was like [a] situation like before, that would have never happened."
