We're very excited to welcome one of WWE's rising superstars to show, NXT's Rick Bugez calls in and we have a great chat. Bugez talks about how he got into metal, his first experiences with wrestling, finding his character and how Paul Heyman had a huge impact on that as well as bands he was looking forward to seeing at the recent Download Festival.
