Kevin Knight: Speedball Mike Bailey Is To Pro Wrestling What Albert Einstein Is To Science

Kevin Knight discusses Speedball Mike Bailey and is ability to instruct in the world of professional wrestling.

Since the pair both arrived in All Elite Wrestling, Kevin Knight and Speedball Mike Bailey have been a tag team in AEW, wrestling under the tag team name JetSpeed.

While speaking to Sir Wilkins in a new interview, Kevin Knight spoke about Speedball, noting he is to wrestling what Albert Einstein is to science.

“What I say about Speedball Mike Bailey, he’s what pro wrestling is to what Albert Einstein is to science. He’s what Deion Sanders is to swag, you know what I’m saying? He knows pro wrestling inside and out. Like you ask him about any match, about any style, he knows exactly who curated that style, exactly who came up with it, he knows all the moves, everything. So with that being said, Speedball knows exactly how to put everybody in the best place possible to get the best reaction out of everything. He knows how to cook up a formula. You give him me and you and somebody else, he’ll be like, okay, you do this, you do this, you do this. Boom. Let’s go out there and do it. You know what I mean? He’s so confident in his work. When he’s putting it together, you’re not going to even question it. You know what I mean? You go out there and do it, and you hear the reaction from the people, and you’re like, ‘oh, my God. Like, that was a cool idea.’ Let me keep trusting him, you know what I mean? So Speedball is that savant, that great wrestling mind that I’ve been so blessed to work with these past few weeks, last few months, this whole past year.”

Elsewhere in his weekly vlog, Speedball commented on Knight’s recent heel turn. You can read more about that here.
