Richard Holliday discusses returning to the ring and being cheered.
Richard Holliday announced on April 30 that he was in cancer remission and would be returning to the ring. He wrestled his first match in almost a year at PAPW Rarefied Air on June 10. Holliday has since made multiple independent appearances, including bouts for GCW.
Holliday was known for his brash and braggadocios personality in MLW, but since returning from beating cancer, he's embraced his softer side and being cheered from the fans.
“I believe that everybody has layers to their personality. I’m sure, if given the wrong circumstances, you can be a bit of a jerk in a sense. I think anybody could. I think anybody has the ability to be good or bad, it’s all kind of inherent in ourselves. Given the circumstances, right now I’ve been in a good mood. I’ve been so joyful to be back and doing everything that I’m doing. I’m obviously confident in myself as a performer anyway. Any time I get into the ring, whatever mood I may be in that day or that month or that year, whatever mindset I’m in, Richard Holliday is going to give you something special, and you’re gonna go home remembering it," he said on Under The Ring.
Holliday last wrestled Charles Mason at GCW Crushed Up on September 10.
