Ilja Dragunov says no one is safe.
In the main event of the May 13 episode of WWE Raw, Ilja Dragunov lost to Jey Uso in a quarterfinal match in the King of the Ring tournament. This marked his first loss since he was drafted to WWE Raw.
In a Raw Exclusive, Ilja Dragunov was asked about his loss.
"I mean, what should I say? It’s so frustrating, it is. But where is actually the shame to lose to the man the ‘Main Event’, right? All I know right now, I’m tired, I’m in pain, but the beauty of it is that in already very dangerous in this ring. But when I’m pain, I’m an entire monster," Dragunov said.
Dragunov was then asked to share his predictions for the semi-final match between Gunther and Jey Uso. He praised both of them but offered a prediction for himself. The former NXT Champion stated that nobody was safe.
"Predictions? I mean, they’re both like the absolute bar. The only prediction I can make is for myself, and this prediction is, no one is safe anymore. To quote Shawn Michaels, ‘I’m what the kids call a real problem,'" Dragunov said.
