During a recent interview with Complex, Matt Jackson commented on his idea to superkick someone with a flaming shoe, using a thumbtack shoe on the Lucha Bros during their match at AEW All Out, and more. You can check out some highlights from the interview below:
On his idea to superkick someone with a flaming shoe: “I have a wild idea. I would really love to get whatever hot shoe of the year or the season and I would love to set it on fire and superkick someone in the face. If I can get away with it, that’s my next big thing.”
On using a thumbtack shoe on the Lucha Bros during their match at AEW All Out: “I’ve become a professional at it. I do it myself. I did it years ago at Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. It was a cheaper (shoe), maybe an Air Force One. I did it and it was a big deal, but it was 2015 so people had forgotten. I asked Nick, ‘I have this crazy idea, let’s bring it back.’ It had to be another expensive sneaker. At this point, we had already done the Dior High. This was the next one. That morning, I grabbed super glue, a couple hundred thumbtacks, and sat there and literally poked it with gorilla glue and placed it on one at a time. It was king of like arts and crafts for me.”
