It’s good to see how passionate Tyson is about producing. Also appreciate how in depth he went about the backstage aspects of how the shows are made.
Glad to see he doesn’t hold onto the “wrestler” dream and fully embraces his role as a producer. Top class.
It’s thoroughly gone through in Divas. Very hard to watch.
@@cloverravenlol that was like a decade ago….ofc he had to go through all the stages of grieving his career. He’s not in the “wrestler” mindset anymore, & hasn’t been for like 8 years, which is OP’s point.
This guy is a wrestling encyclopedia. I could listen to Kidd for hours. Amazing interview!
Thank you Chris for getting Tyson Kidd on the show I’ll never get tired of hearing Him talk about wrestling and pulling from that vast well of information he has
Tyson is truly amazing. Chris is such a great interviewer. He never interrupts stories and he asks follow-up questions. So many interviewers don't do that. He is also highly likeable.
Don't need him to. I'm just happy he's alive and doing well.
As someone who's also an avid fan of basketball, NBA, and NBA 2K games, I gotta love TJ more and appreciate his love for other sports. More power to you, sir!
TJ is awesome he was truly one of the best in the ring! Unfortunately the in ring career is over but his work as a producer is a gift that keeps on giving. Thanks CVV for the interviews. Thanks TJ for being you!
This interview is definitely enjoyable and informative. I didn’t know how much I missed seeing him on screen
He’s such a chill guy he deserves his flowers for his time in wwe great interview Chris 🙌 Tyson Kidd used to be one of my favorites so seeing this makes me happy 😊
That’s so sad. I was hoping that maybe someday he could come back. He could’ve been huge in today’s era. He always had banger after banger match & pairing him up with Cesaro was genius cause they put on banger matches together. Miss Kidd in the ring
Honestly his work as a producer his work is probably unmatchable. No offense but I can't remember most of what he's done inring except some of tag stuff with Claudio and Harry. He's found place now as a producer so keep it up bro.
Edit: also didn't know it was a c1 to c2 fission he did so he's definitely out as is 😂. Like people have had c1 injuries where they're fine and just a slight movement of the head and they immediately die. So please don't die TJ not for any of our sakes
Tyson Kidd had one of the sweetest elbow drops I had ever seen.
Legit one of the nicest wrestlers I have ever had the pleasure of meeting in person and having a conversation with. I wish him all the best. :)
TJ has one of the best minds for the business, possibly ever. Pro Wrestling is far better with people like him behind the scenes.
Not going to lie I never fully understood his neck injury. Pretty insane to really understand the severity of it.
I didn’t know about his injury until Naty talked about it on the podcast. It always a shock when hearing about someone you watch and cheered from behind a screen almost died. I hope nothing but the best for Tyson and his C1-C2 fracture doesn’t cause any more pain during his life
I had the honor to meet T.J. 2 years ago! A hell of a guy and a cool dude overall! 🍻 to you good sir. Hell of a career sir! ❤
So happy to see him healthy. Hate that his in ring career is over. Loved watching him in the ring.
Wow! So, I have C2 and C3 fused and no one told me about the 2nd that and the breathing! Canadian doctors. That's about me.
Seriously thank Chris and Tyson for a great interview. Informed and inspired!
Does anyone else remember Tyson Kidd's feud with Yoshi Tatsu on NXT? I loved that match which had the action figure on the stake.
Just 2 good Canadian dudes having a great chat, and me as a Canadian, being proud of all of it.
tyson kidd! pumped for this. I was really rooting for this man before his career threatening injuries. Happy he is living his dream one form or another.
Chris I’ve been a fan of your for so many years now. Your interviews were a huge part of keeping my sanity during the damn Caornapacolypse. But I’ve never been more proud or happy with one of your interviews as this one made me feel. I actually am in tears just seeing TJ and hearing his voice. It’s so great to see him happy and doing so well. We all have such a huge amount of respect for him so this is definitely my favorite interview you’ve ever done.
TJ seems like such a cool dude.glad his health is good.
Nice to see that Tyson became grounded and how easily his life could have been taken. We all have to be grounded no matter what we do, so we know what reality is.
Thank you Chris! I love this interview Tyson's laugh is infectious.
It always bums me out when I think about how great he could have been. I’m glad he’s happy
A Tyson Kidd rumble appearance would be cool if he's physically able. A quick in and out.
I got a ton of love for the Hart Family. I always thought TJ was awesome. Bret Hart is my all time favorite and an inspiration to me and my character.
I've had the honor of being able to interact with and earn the follows from Natalya and David Hart Smith (Davey Boy Jr) among other cool Wrestlers going today. Truly humbled and honored.
I believe if you interact with them plenty enough and show enough love and appreciation, a fan can earn that follow. If they know that they have made a positive impact on you, that's something anyone can smile about.
Incredible interview as always, Chris!
For some reason when I first started watching, Tyson Kidd stuck out as my favourite wrestler. Very strange because he didn’t get much TV time but I vividly remember coming home from school watching NXT wanting him to win the inaugural NXT championship
Thank you Chris for all the amazing work you do. I appreciate what you do for these people on your channel. You sharing your platform and your always positive and kind. Keep up the hard work. And also Tyson is an awesome dude.
Thank you for bringing Tyson Kidd
Great interview as always Chris! TJ is awesome!
What a pleasant person Tyson Kidd is. Super easy to like this guy and I hope he has good health going forward!
This is an amazing interview. Thank you!
Your Interviews are the best!! Hands down
This was a great one!
It is great to see Tyson Kidd again. While I miss seeing him in the ring, I am happy that he is enjoying his role as a producer. Thank you for the interview Chris.
Man imagine if he never got hurt how far him and cesaro would have went as a team and thing is they where building that momentum and us fans where behind him then bam he gets hurt cause of samoa joe
damn I was here 8 seconds after the video was uploaded, this should be a good one. Appreciate your work, Chris.
Tyson Kidd and Cesaro are easily in my top 10 tag teams ever! The potential I seen in them was enormous! Too bad it was cut short.
Sooo happy TJ found purpose after leaving the ring and is happy
Tyson Kidd has a great sense of humor.
What a great conversation!
Great interview, man!
Like the details of putting pink lighting behind TJ🩷💡
Another Great Interview Chris💯👍
Very good interview. Big up Tyson Kidd.
tyson kidd forever one of my favorite wrestlers.
Great interview! :)
Great interview. With the WWE's international expansion, I always hope, someday, that Nattie and TJ will find themselves running Stampede. It would be great to have a Canadian promotion, and I believe they could be great bookers and authority figures.
I remember checking Natty and Tyson into the hotel I worked at around 2010ish and I'm checking Natty in but I'm looking for Tyson, I see him standing just outside the front desk lobby with his bags and as our eyes briefly met through the glass door, I could see the reticence because he probably thought I was staring at his haircut, and I realized, oh god, he probably gets that soo often, I felt bad. Can't even imagine how many hotels he'd been in and out of over the years. Natty was pretty nice, down to earth.
How could a Brett v mr perfect match ever be anything but amazing. Man those two were so damn good.
I also feel for Harry , he could have had a real top run I think but maybe still will in wwe
Loved this interview , Tyson went in-depth and I just love the passion he has, it be so easy for him to be like my career was cut short and it’s shit and it’s not fair but he’s taken it on and thought ok so I can’t wrestle but I can help make what I love get better. Also have to say Nattie is so so underrated imo, imo and this only mine so don’t shoot me but she’s top 3 woman ever in the sport. Thats my opinion. Either way they are both a credit to themselves and to the sport.
Imagine tho your a young wrestler and you marry into or start dating a lady and she’s like yeah my uncles wrestle, yeah Brett and Owen hart and my dad Jim the anvil …. 🤣🤣🤣
And then you train her
Thank you Chris for another great interview I like Tyson and Natalya they seem like great people 👍
I'm a huge NBA LIVE and 2k collector. My first was Jordan vs Bird and then NBA LIVE 94. Anytime I collect them I create myself and some old friends . The dynasty mode is awesome. I once had Vince Carter on my team and got him to play until he was 60!!
I remember growing up Tyson Kidd was my favorite wrestler in ECW him and the hart dynasty were incredible. I always got weird looks for it but him and the miz were my faves and still are to this day. I remember when he had the fatal four way for the NXT title I was like MY BOI FINALLY GONNA GET HIS ROSES. I was just happy that we was getting time as a solo guy.
It was so crushing when I heard about the injury I legit fell to my knees like lord not him not Kidd. But at the same time I’m glad he’s able to help other people and he’s being appreciated backstage
Wishing you all the best Tyson 👍
TJ along with his passion is just such a nice guy it’s sad to see guys like him get career ending injuries but there’s always some blessing in disguise and with that happening wwe gave him the opportunity to help other stars especially women which benefit so greatly with intelligent minds like him in gorilla.
Not gonna lie I would like to see a Chris van vliet and Alicia atout both interview each other on each channel I think if they do a collab it would be awesome like watching both channels
I always love hearing from TJ, he's such a great guy and mind for the business.... I would have loved to seen a documentary on his career
I can't wait to see Chris interview Taker, that's gonna be a great episode
He's already interviewed him, it's on the channel.
Hope we get AJ Styles or Samoa Joe on here. I’m a TNA mark just like you Chris.
@@elijahhill6602y don't like each other
@@meganjarvis7351I'm sure they don't hate each other but Joe accidentally ended his career with the muscle buster I think that is the name of the move.
@@MysticKing777 or thank you 4 answer m8
What about Eddie Slapnuts?
I know I dug this interview thank you Chris thank you Tyson thank you stue hart fir getting the Hart name out there its still helping wrestlers get on the map wich isn't good it's kick ass
Respect!
It’s mad this interview for me flew by
For some reason, your Tyson Kidd interviews always feels different and I can't explain why. They just feel.... Deeper? Yeah, I think that is the word or closest to it atleast. He really is just an open book to talk to, isn't he? He invites you in and doesn't hold back, good or bad.
Do you feel like those differences in people you interview?
"Stone Cold came down to the bar, just for like 1 beer" is a line I never thought would be said. STONE COLD & 1 BEER don't belong in the same sentence.😂
Thank you Tyson I always said he’s gonna be huge in the industry but life doesn’t go as plan n u either sulk or make a new plan u seem happy god bless you man
I fucking love Tyson. Dude legitimately had the most beautiful elbow drop in the biz
OG Luchas Ultimate Dragon, Rey Mysterio, Hardy Boyz, Jeff Hardy, RVD, Edge, sorry Adam Copeland, tyson kidd, Seth Rollins (before the back issues), Evan Borne, to now ricochet, all of a sudden Mr. Awesome, The Miz.. all the Luchadors females and males
Today I am grateful for
Cvv videos
My employment
And my family.
Another great video my man! Also, bonus grateful thought....I'm grateful Tyson is still here with us.
Another banger
Such an underrated wrestler
Big fan of Tyson Kidd and Nattie on Total Divas 🙌
Wondering what Titus O’Neil is doing? Can you bring him in Chris?
Best regards 🙂🙏🏽
he is in great shape
Im glad tyson kidd didnt pull a bret hart and became bitter and buries his colleagues every chance he gets!
Just glad kid can be mobile and enjoy his life spinal injury,s are no joke and yes the greedy fan in me is like wrestle wrestle wrestle but the conciece human in me is like no bro just be proud that you got farther than tons of people it sucks you caint do it no more but you still left us all some awsome moments so be proud and enjoy the life that's left and know at least I suport all that you do thank you for the memories
TYSON KIDD
TJ is so right about HHH's long term storytelling. The suspense is good. Its what keeps us tuned in. Hes doing what vince did when his father died. Ran the company better until he couldnt anymore. Paul Levesque is running it very differently.
I missed him
Man I knew it was bad, but I didn’t know the true extent of the injury and just how lucky he is to be here and still able to walk. That is so terrifying idk what would’ve done hearing the nurse tell me that.
Great interview. You could interview a cardboard box and it will turn out great.
man he was my favorite wrestler i hate that happened till this day
I actually wish he would wrestle and they would give him a really good run at least the ic title or the u.s. I've met Natty twice in Oklahoma City Tyson was there but didn't get to meet him
I think Tyson should be put in the Hall of Fame as a member of the New Hart Foundation with Davey Boy's son & Nattie!
Cool
Tyson seems like such a nice guy
I always assumed his hairstyle was "The Tintin".
Tj always reminded me of Owen hart in the ring
Give him another 3-5 years producing, then I want to see him booking something like NXT, ROH or TNA.
This guy has a good brain on him. I'm glad they managed to stitch him up to where he can use it instead of bumping around.
I always saw him as a many Benoit😂 love the wifey
Bring cm punk on your show man
Its a shame he got injured as he was just finding his character, as he was always good in the ring.
As a kid, Tyson's hair was the only thing that annoyed the hell out of me about him lol
WWE RAW 2023 Tyson Kidd
