Joe Gacy: I Picked Up Breakdancing In High School, I Danced At All Of The Parties

Joe Gacy isn't your average chump when it comes to breaking it down on the dance floor.

After a viral clip of Gacy's sick moves surfaced on the web after a CZW show, fans around the world were questioning where the future NXT 2.0 superstar had learned to dance that well.

In a new interview with Fightful, Gacy revealed that he's actually been dancing since his high school days.

"Funny story, in high school, I kind of picked up break dancing. Oddly, I was a heavyset kid, so I don’t know how or why I decided to do it, it just kind of happened. I was known as the guy that would dance at high school dances. It kind of took on a life of its own from there.As you can see, I have hair now. Previously, I had long hair. At that moment, I had a shaved head so it was a lot easier to slide on my head. I could not do that now [laughs]. There is no way I could pull that off. I honestly don’t even know how I did it. It was a last minute decision [laughs]."

Although he claims that he can't do it anymore, there has to be a small chance that Gacy could pull out ol' reliable if it means it helps him get closer to victory in his NXT Championship match at Saturday's In Your House special on Peacock.
