Nick Hausman welcomed Bobby Fish as his guest on the latest "Haus of Wrestling" podcast. As always, check out the transcribed highlights below but scroll down to listen to the entire interview.

His thoughts on Roderick Strong coming to AEW:

"I will just say this. I'm just happy to see my boys at work. These are, and have always been, legitimate, close friends of mine. I think that's why the Undisputed Era worked the way that it did in NXT because there was no fabrication to it. We were four guys who were tight and what you saw play out on screen was four dudes who had each other's back, and that was marketable because it was real. I'm just happy to see two of my best friends back at work, with jobs, and able to support their families. This is real life stuff in this fictional world of pro wrestling. There's real people here with real wives, real kids, real homes, real dogs, real bills."

Fish was asked if he knows how Kyle O’Reilly is doing:

"Kyle's doing good. Good recovery. Rehab is on an uptick. He's doing better, but this is a slow recovery. I mean, I think the procedure and stuff Kyle had done was a long time coming. He's tougher than nails, so what became his normal for years, what he put up with on a daily basis, and we being three of his closest friends, probably saw as much of it, outside of his wife, we saw more of it than anyone else. I think it was overdue. I just want him to have full recovery for his life. Screw wrestling. They got a new baby girl. She's beautiful. He's living that dad life right now so I'm happy for him”

On if Fish will return to AEW:

I don't know. I got my wife. I got my daughters. I got my dog. That's my every day. Wrestling is literally, it's a job. I still love it. It's paying the bills and like, I'm just living my life, and dare I say my best life. I got married in July. There's never an end to the work to be done on a home, so we're always putting that in. Those are weekend projects. I'm living my best life. Whether or not that circles back around, you know, time will tell.”

On whether he’s talked to Tony Khan since he left AEW:

“No. Not really. I think the last time I crossed paths with him would have been at Jay Briscoe's services.”
