Zack Sabre Junior is known throughout the world for his technical ability in wrestling with many hailing him as the single best in the world.
While his talent is well documented his aims for the upcoming Cruiserweight Classic are yet to be made clear, as the Britton talks about his experience of performing all over the globe and what drives him to succeed.
ZSJ the United Kingdom's hero
One thing that the 28-year-old was keen to point out while speaking to the WWE Network was his pride at having the opportunity to represent Great Britain at the upcoming tournament with Sabre just one of two men that will proudly display the flag of the United Kingdom during their match.
He said "I have been traveling around the world wrestling for about 10 years now, I am very proud to even be in the tournament, not just for me but representing Britain, the Union Jack is emblazoned over my ring attire."
With the nickname of 'Technical Wizard' following him in any company he represents his performance that he has displayed throughout Europe have earned him many praises, and he does not seem to be set on taking things easy just yet.
He said "I have wrestled all over the UK and all over Europe in Spain, Germany, I have spent the last four years training in Japan but there is only so much familiarity you can have until you are in the ring; my style, well I definitely wear my influences on my sleeve it is a one up man ship, it is tactical, I have quite a few tricks up my sleeve, Harry Potter is not the only wizard from Great Britain."
On motivation and goals
With the typical mindset being to win the entire tournament, few can claim to have the level of ability that Sabre possesses making him one of the early favorites to win the tournament.
The competition is based around one simple thing, weight, with each performer having to weigh 205lbs or under. A concept first made mainby WCW who originally had a higher weight limit however, but it did create stars such as Dean Malenko and the late Eddie Guerrero.
On his motivation to win he said "One motivation was just a passion, I cannot remember not watching wrestling, I was mesmerized by Dean Malenko, Chris Jericho and Eddie Guerrero. Those guys had just great technical skills”
The performer has been presented with the title of 'Best Technical Wrestler' by the Wrestling Observer Newsletter in both 2014 and 2015 and he remains on the cusp of breaking out of the independent scene and into the WWE due to his high level of ability.
Having won a number of tournaments already in the past including The Round Robin tournament in 2008 (AM Wrestling), The UK Super 8 in 2014 (International Pro Wrestling: United Kingdom), The Battle of Los Angeles in 2014 (Pro Wrestling Guerilla) and The 16 Carat Gold Tournament this year (Westside Xtreme Wrestling), he clearly has the experience to balance out his ability.
He finished with "I only have one goal for this tournament and that is to win it, I have won tournaments all over the world and in a tournament full of diverse cruiserweights if I am truly the best technical wrestler in the world then I am going to win this tournament and I think when you love something and you put the time and effort in then rewards come."
