NXT UK's Mark Andrews recently spoke to Gary Cassidy of Sportskeeda for a new interview. You can see the full interview above, and highlights submitted to Fightful below!
Mark Andrews on Triple H tweeting about Brick by Brick being the theme for NXT UK TakeOver: Cardiff:
When we saw Triple H's tweet, it was just after we got off stage after the Cardiff show, so we'd just had this amazing, like, "Yeah! That was amazing! Oh, Triple H has tweeted about our song!"
It was so cool. I'll be honest, I'm not going to lie - we did specifically write that song trying to appeal more towards the wrestling world. We thought to ourselves, "What the kind of song you would hear on a wrestling video game or a Tony Hawk's video game? Or a wrestling pay-per-view?"
We specifically wrote it hoping that something like this would happen and when it did, we're like, "Ah, okay, sweet! We did it well enough for it to be used!"
I'm really excited for it to be used. It is the first ever TakeOver in Wales, first ever televised WWE event in Wales, so it'll be very sentimental to me in general. Now the fact that the band gets to be involved in it as well is awesome - and seeing Triple H tweet about it was cool. We'll get him to do guest vocals next time.
Mark Andrews on Pete Dunne attacking him during Junior's set at Download Festival:
A lot of bands get to Download, it's a big opportunity for a band. We're just a small band and we're trying desperately to get to that big platform, so we thought, "How can we separate ourselves from everyone else on that stage over the weekend? I'd like to think we did a good job because we got to do a limbo in the crowd, got a massive limbo, with a huge rope going down the middle of the crowd. everyone involved, with the NXT roster getting involved, which was awesome. The flip in the end, we were like, "Hopefully this will solidify us."
