Ring Of Honor (ROH) star Matt Taven recently spoke to ProWrestling.com to talk about several professional wrestling topics. Taven talked about competing for the ROH World Title at the G1 Supercard, growing up watching shows at Madison Square Garden, and watching the Bulls and Knicks games in the arena. Here are the highlights:
Competing for the ROH World Title at the G1 Supercard: “It’s definitely got a fond place in my heart, and is somewhere that I’ve always wanted to be. Just to go to Madison Square Garden is special, and here I am going for the Ring of Honor world title.”
Growing up watching shows at Madison Square Garden: “I was a kid who barely knew what was going on in 1991, but I can remember begging my parents to order SummerSlam. I remember watching it and Bret Hart won the Intercontinental title in Madison Square Garden over Mr. Perfect, and it kind of sealed my fandom as a Bret Hart guy from there on out.”
Watching the Bulls and Knicks games in the arena: “Obviously the New York and Boston rivalry in general. Any time the Celtics are down there, you’re always looking up at that roof and seeing that lighting at MSG.”
