• Luke Gallows Explains Why He Didn’t Hate The Festus Gimmick

During a recent appearance on Lilian Garcia’s Chasing Glory podcast, former RAW Tag Team Champion Luke Gallows was asked if he hated the Festus gimmick he had in WWE back in the day.

Below is what Gallows said:

“I didn’t hate it. People ask me that all the time, you know I was a young guy getting into the business and I got right to WWE. So, like I didn’t hate it. I was making money. I bought my first house and it was fine.”
