During his appearance he discussed some of the stars that he took inspiration from while preparing his own promos. He named guys like the Miz, Roman Reigns and Cena as some of his inspirations. He also confessed that he was glued to the screen watching Cena during his retirement run.

“I think Cena is far and away the best promo guy I’ve ever seen. The stuff in his final run, there have been a couple where I’ve just been sitting there glued to the screen like how is this guy just so amazing at what he does? ” Fletcher said. [H:T/ITRWrestling]

It’s great to see John Cena get his flowers from a young rising star like Kyle Fletcher.

Kyle Fletcher also praised the Miz along with John Cena

While stating people who inspired him for his promos, Fletcher also named the Miz as one of his first inspirations. He said that the A-lister was one of his favourites growing up. He further stated that he still thinks that he’s one of the best in the business at what he does.

“One of the people who first drew me with their promos was The Miz. A lot of people have things to say about him now, but I still think he’s one of the best. I think I’ve always thought that. That’s always how it happens as well. It’s like, when they’re on the way out, it’s like, oh yeah, you know what? He’s pretty good. But I was 12 years old in 2011 going, This is the best. ‘I’m awesome!’ So, yeah, that was probably my first one,” He said.

It’s great to see stars like John Cena and the Miz get appreciation even from stars from AEW.
