Otis is in it for the love of the game.
Otis has been with WWE since 2016. He has a memorable run alongside Tucker Knight as Heavy Machinery. Otis was later featured in a storyline with Mandy Rose, and he won the Money in the Bank match in 2020. He also had a run with Chad Gable in Alpha Academy, but they parted ways earlier in 2024.
Speaking on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, Otis was asked to comment on his goals.
“Definitely that singles match at WrestleMania. Everyone talks about the title. For me, it’s basically [to] probably have a big match with [Chad] Gable, hopefully would be cool, maybe someday, I don’t know. This is going back, but I always wanted to work with Windham. That’s going to be a fantasy of mine until we go to heaven, basically. I always knew me and him could tear the house down. Two big guys, our styles aren’t exactly similar, but he’s way more agile, and the guy was phenomenal. RIP, babe. That and working with certain guys, newer guys coming in, and then obviously having that big title win would be nice. But for me, doing what I love to do has basically been a blessing for me, and selfishly I’m doing it for myself because it’s that much of a love for me," Otis said.
During the interview, Otis recalled the crowd's reaction when he stood up to Chad Gable. Check out his comments here.
