Kit Wilson and Elton Prince discuss Sean Ross Sapp, Lexington, and living in America.
The duo of Wilson and Prince, otherwise known as Pretty Deadly, have been prominent on SmackDown since getting drafted to the brand earlier this year. In just three months, the duo already have notched wins over The Brawling Brutes and the Street Profits.
In a new interview with Fightful, Kit Wilson brought the hard hitting questions to Sean Ross Sapp, specifically asking him why he uses three names.
KIT WILSON: “I’ve got a question.”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “Go ahead.”
KIT WILSON: “Sorry, Pretty Deadly here. Before you even get there,
what’s the need for the Sean Ross Sapp? Is it an ego thing to get the
whole thing in? Is Sean not enough?”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “Yes. So the way I always put it is if people know me
by Sean Sapp, they’ve either known me my entire life or they don’t
know me at all. I just professionally went by Sean Ross Sapp. Bill Apter,
of all people, said, ‘Hey, why don’t you use your middle name?’ I was
like, ‘Okay. I’ll do the three name thing.’”
ELTON PRINCE: “It’s long.”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “If you all could have a third name, what would your
third name be?”
KIT WILSON: “I actually do have a third name. My name is Kit Bravery
Wilson.”
ELTON PRINCE: “That’s true. That’s very true. That’s a good one. What
was mine?”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “Elton Danger Prince? Is that your middle name?”
ELTON PRINCE: “I’d like a better one, but I’ll take it for now.”
KIT WILSON: “Fill the books, get the passports ready. Danger.”
ELTON PRINCE: “Danger.”
Fightful then proceeded to ask Prince and Wilson about Lexington, Kentucky, a town that they performed in a few weeks ago.
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “I had the pleasure of seeing you guys in a grueling
match-up in Lexington, Kentucky a few weeks ago. You ran the
gauntlet. Does Lexington get a ‘Yes, boy’ from you guys? Or is it a no?”
ELTON PRINCE: “Well, I’ll say this. We’re yet to find anywhere in
America that gets a ‘Yes, boy,’ honestly.”
KIT WILSON: “It gets a ‘Yes, boy’ on the way out as we’re leaving.”
ELTON PRINCE: “Yep, on the way out.”
Wilson and Prince went on to talk about their least favorite thing about living in the United States.
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “I’m only discovering a lot of differences between
the US and the UK; it’s my first time over here. What is your least
favorite thing about the US?”
KIT WILSON: “Where are you from in the US?”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “Lexington, Kentucky.”
KIT WILSON: “Well, coincidentally, we got a lot bad to say about
Lexington, Kentucky. The UK is great and I’ll pass it over.”
ELTON PRINCE: “I’ll say one thing that I think we struggle with is
Americans struggle with sarcasm. I think that’s such a huge part of—
maybe not you, Sean Ross Sapp. Maybe not you. But it’s something we
struggle with a lot. You might drop in a casual bit of sarcasm, not even
a big bit, and Americans will look at you or be offended. It doesn’t
translate. I think that’s something that’s upsetting sometimes.”
KIT WILSON: “Yeah. It’s a struggle.”
ELTON PRINCE: “I have one more, one more. In NXT we had what was
referred to as a Trunk match, but for us that’s a Boot match. The back
of a car is called a boot. So that was very infuriating for us to be a part
of a match that we disagreed with the name.”
KIT WILSON: “Yeah. We say [k-air-ah-mel], you say...”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “[K-are-mel].”
Note 1 & 2: This bit doesn’t translate well in proper spelling, so I
opted for this to illustrate the intended point of difference.
KIT WILSON: “That’s wrong.”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “I mean, on our commercials they say it properly.
They’re like [k-air-ah-mel] filling and all that stuff.”KIT WILSON: “That sounds very sensual.”
SEAN ROSS SAPP: “Also, caramel’s way bigger here. I see Cadbury is
still huge here. That hasn’t been a thing since, like, 1982 in the US.”
KIT WILSON: “Caramel’s about as big here as the opportunity we have
tonight on Friday Night Smackdown. Thank you very much.”
ELTON PRINCE: “What a segway, what a segway.”
KIT WILSON: “Thank you.”
