@Divasandsuperstar Could you at least listen to Richards explaining why he declined the offer from WWE before you start insulting him? Seriously. There's a reason he didn't want to be in the mainstream promotions.
The interview was conducted on 2nd July 2011 at Barcelona, Spain. A youtube vid of it is provided by Leokadia18.
@CMY187 it doesn't matter what he said in an interview he's still an idiot for turning them down WWE is the only place you can make a name for yourself indie companies mean nothing to your career as a wrestler what good is winning world titles if no one knows you did it WWE is be all end all of the wrestling industry. Without WWE you are nothing as wrestler
@MrThatguy224 Try saying that to the Briscoe Brothers. Why not watch them talk about why they aren't in WWE in their promo video entitled "Cosmetically Pleasing"?
@MrThatguy224 Then please don't say that any non-WWE person is nothing. I'm trying to be civil here, okay, so please be the same to me. Richards is not an idiot, he has his reasons for rejecting WWE's offer. He's not the only one. Many talented and gifted wrestlers chose not to go to WWE despite the bigger salary and TV platform, because of the risk that WWE would
A) Turn them into jobbers
B) Make them do stupid/career-destroying/immoral/embarrassing storylines
Davey Richards Vs Chris Benoit Would have been a match made in Heaven. In a perfect world The Chris Benoit Famiy tragedy never Happened & davey richards was signed to WWE & he & Chris benoit had a series of unforgettabe macthes & Feuds & Chris benoit Retired at Wrestlemania 27 & passed the Torch to Davey Richards. Hey a guy can Dream Right :)
Shades of Benoit. Has that fierce aggression. Similar size and build. Great technician. Proves that it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog. Or, wolf in this case. lol Can't wait to see where he is at ten years from now. World Champion on the biggest stage of them all. THIS is why I became a wrestling fan.
@MrRonJon1183 hahaha....seriously though. I've often wondered if he could work with drug testing. Hey, if he is drug free than it's a compliment, really.
He's the wolverine from x-men but as a wrestler. I mean really just look at him. ROH should give him a wolverine gimmick so the modern day fan can connect to him more. And by the wolverine gimmick i dont mean give him a costume or all that sht make him act,talk like Logan.
Whos Better than Davey Richards .. Seriously! He has the Full Package..No One In TNA can Match up to Him..... But there's One person in WWE that can. And thats Bryan Danielson (Daniel Bryan).
@halofhellproductions not completely, is scripted and some of this punches are real, people has died doing this, dont attack something that you dont know
@halofhellproductions lol no, but ROH and guys like davey richards represent what pro wrestling should be, a wrestling company and not "sports entertainment"
davey richards vs kurt angle at wrestlemania, if i can think of a dream match this one keeps going through my head, my 2 favorite wrestlers in a 60 minute iron man match, what other paring would be better
I don't know why people are refering to the wolves as the rockers. I think the wolves are like the British Bulldogs, both are great. If you want to refer to a jannetty that was champ and a michaels that needs to be champ, look at The Miz and John Morrison.
if u don't know nothing about Independent wrestling then just know this Davey Richards is the true definition of a hard-worker because he has worked all over tha world and even Japan (is Davey Richards the best in tha world???) right now 2011 i would say HELL F'N YA he is he is a ROH Legend
On the quiz we did about me with my friends and family, The first was "My favorite male wrestler" and the answer for it is Davey Richards and boy it was the most difficult quiz because most people don't even know who Davey Richards is.

Yes.
He can't ride on most roller coasters at theme parks because he doesn't meet the minimum height requirement.
