Bobby Steveson talked about his time at the WWE Performance Center Bobby Steveson spent quite some time at the WWE Performance Center during his run with WWE. Due to his amateur wrestling background, Steveson had an edge over the technicalities of being a professional wrestler. Recently, he talked about how it felt to be at the PC with such a vast background. Speaking with Fightful, the former WWE star revealed that no one at the Performance Center doubted his skills as a wrestler. He said that almost everyone had an idea about his background. Therefore, there was no question about his wrestling skills in the squared circle. “No, they all knew better. They knew better. They knew what it was when I came through the door. We had a few guys that would try and then they found out real quick and then they’re like, ‘Oh, it is real.’ – So when you got someone that knows how to be moved around and myself already knowing how to move someone around and put my hands on people, that transition was pretty easy,” said Steveson. Moreover, Steveson said that he had no difficulty in making the transition from an amateur wrestler to a pro-wrestler in the Stamford-based promotion. He added that he knew the basics of the ring, and all he had to work on was his character and personality.
