Speaking in an exclusive interview with Hall of Fame journalist and host Brad Gilmore for Sportskeeda Wrestling, Ezekiel stated that he just thought it looked cool. While he did not intend to resemble The Ultimate Warrior, he is glad to hear the comparisons: "You know what, it was never my intention. I just thought this looks really cool. I really love the bright colors, the tassels, the whole thing. Thought it would be showy," said Ezekiel. "As soon as I went out there, I heard all the comparisons. People have been telling me [how much it resembles The Ultimate Warrior].
