Paul London talks video games.
Throughout his career, London has appeared in three major wrestling video games -- WWE Day Of Reckoning 2 (2005), WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2006 (2005), and WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 (2008). As a playable character, London's overall rating never dropped below the 80 mark.
While chopping it up with Fightful for a new interview, London joked that he did more motion capture for other wrestlers than he did for himself. London also revealed that he did motion capture for Chyna in a game.
"It's funny because I've done more motion capture work for other wrestlers than I ever was asked to do for myself. I've even motion captured as Chyna in a game. Shot cannons and stuff. I remember more getting scanned for the toys than I actually do for the video game and As an old man, I'm not much of a video game guy unless it takes quarters, but I did manage to upset Edge at the video game tournament in Chicago and lose in the finals to that video game cheat that video game glutton Shelton Benjamin. He bogarted that title every year after year, but he was obsessed with the video games and all the video game rats. I would go see my relatives in Denver and they would be playing the game. I think that's the only time I had played it aside from the thing with at Mania. It's cool. It's too many buttons for me, man. That's too advanced for me. I'm just a button master when it comes to that. Give me A, B, up, down, left, right, select, start. Let's do it."
London went on to take a jab at the face scans in AEW Fight Forever.
"I'm just glad whoever scanned the AEW faces. I'm just glad whoever did that didn't do mine."
Elsewhere in the interview, London had high praise for independent wrestler Vinny Pacifico. Check out his full comments on the matter here.
