Miro was on a recent episode of the AEW Unrestricted podcast.
During the interview, he recalled how the original storyline with Lana leaving him for Bobby Lashley would’ve seen his character have erectile dysfunction. Luckily, he talked with Vince McMahon and got it changed to him being a sex addict instead.
Here is what he had to say:
“That’s when I came out and they want CJ to say that I’m a sex addict, but the original pitch was that I have erectile dysfunction,” Miro revealed. “They really wanted to kill me like completely because I don’t think in any anybody’s eyes how the baby face has erectile dysfunction, and he’s somewhat of a good guy. And there’s nothing wrong with people having erectile dysfunction, you know, there’s the pills you can take. But that was not the case here and there’s no coming back from it.
“There’s absolutely no coming back from it, and I told him, ‘Vince, this is going to bury me completely. You have the man that took my wife, and now, I have erectile dysfunction and then I’m going to lose. Well, I was not supposed to lose anyways, but that’s just changing time. I just think it’s a better idea if we do the sex addict thing.’ So he went for it right away, but thank God. Thank God I did not have erectile dysfunction as a character.”
