Eli Drake Reveals He Did Motion Capture For WWE 2K18

Impact Wrestling Superstar Eli Drake recently participated in a Reddit Ask Me Anything. You can see the full Q&A at this link, and highlights below:

What wrestling shows he watches:

The Elite: We're Getting AEW Back To What It Was Supposed To Be

I don't really follow much of anything. If I watch wrestling, it's usually stuff from 20 or 30 years ago.

His work with The Rising:

It was an appreciate opportunity, but somewhat frustrated. Felt like a background character. But I made the most of my minutes

His contract status and if he's signed a new deal:

Not yet ... I have been extended for 2 months.

If he's needed to use the restroom during a match or right before one:

Well hell yeah....never during, but I've heard of that happening.

Rockstar Spud using the "Drake" name on 205 Live:

LOL, many people have the name Drake, he's getting paid so more power to him. But Drake Maverick is a goofy name, a name from a Top Gun porn

Hypothetically if there was an Impact vs. Lucha Underground 2, who from LU would you most like to face?

Pentagon Jr..... he seems pretty interesting.

Jobs before wrestling:

Was a restaurant server for 10 years ... was a security guard ... played a stripper in a theatre presentation of The Full Monty.

If he knew his mannerisms were in WWE 2K18:

Well yes I am because, a little secret, I actually am one of the motion-caption performers. Check the credits! Shhhhh, it's a secret!
