Dad: Someone in WWE Shared This With Me “I Love This Guy,” said Vince McMahon, “We Have To Get Him On Raw.”
Dad is prepared for a career in WWE.
Nathan Barnatt is famous for his character work, including roles as Dad and Keith Apicary, as well as several sketch comedy bits and appearances on numerous television series. Dad has invaded the world of sports entertainment through Creator Clash, a boxing event in which social media influencers fight.
Dad is 2-0 at Creator Clash and made news after his KO victory at Creator Clash 2 by calling out the whole WWE, including Seth Rollins, in his victory speech.
Dad discussed why he believes he belongs in WWE to Jeremy Lambert and Stephen Jensen on The Spotlight.
“Vince said himself, ‘I love this guy, we got to get him on Raw,’ that’s the exact quote from a WWE employee who told me he sat there and watched my video with Vince McMahon. Triple H knows who I am, I don’t know how he feels about me, I don’t know how things are working over there now. I want everyone to like me and see how I can work. I feel, everything I’ve done, I’m made to be in WWE. I’m a huge fan of WWE, I’m emotionally connected to WWE. I love pro wrestling in general. I have this thing where I really want to work for them. I need to do this. I belong there. I want to do it. I would be good at it. I just want the tryout. That’s all I want,” he said. “I haven’t done the Indies, obviously, but I feel the past 20 years, I’ve been honing my craft as an actor and a physical comedian, a stuntman, a gymnast, and an entertainer. If Logan Paul is in there, I feel I deserve it more than him. I’ll say that. I’m the guy who really actually wants to be there, and Rikishi has trained me. I’ve done some GCW stuff. I would like to go and be trained by WWE instead of working the Indies, I’ll take what I’ve learned in my craft and apply it to what I’d be taught at the Performance Center.”
Dad on The Spotlight
Dad talked about calling Seth Rollins out in another section of the interview and how WWE stars sent Rollins the clip of the call out.
Dad has worked for GCW and has been on AEW programs with John Morrison. His three YouTube channels have approximately one million subscribers.
