WWE Superstars answer important questions about pets, cooking and switching bodies

RYBACK: Ryback is a dog person all the way. Nothing against cats, I just have always had dogs, my entire life. To me, they are the most affectionate animals in the world.

I actually just got a brand new [dog]. I got a brand-new female French bulldog, Sophie. I have my French bulldog boy, Sonny. So we got him a little buddy. And I have a female pit bull and bulldog mix, Secret. And She-Ra, who is a female pit bull. My dad holds two of them and I have the other two. We’re good right now [with the amount of dogs we have], being on the road five days a week. The girlfriend is watching over [the two I keep].

NEVILLE: Dog person, 100 percent. Although I’m most similar to a cat, myself. However, I prefer dogs. Unfortunately, I’m actually allergic to both, so whilst loving dogs, I’m not sure if I’ll ever be able to have one. But you can’t beat the character of a dog. Nothing but loyal, just true, just genuine. It’s like a child. It’s so pure.

KEVIN OWENS: I’m both, actually. I have both. I love both. I think I’m partial to the cat, though. Because ... I don’t know. I feel like I’m more ... If I were to be an animal, I’d probably be a cat. Kind of secluded and do your own thing until you need something.

RYBACK: Oooh. Taco Tuesday. The Big Guy likes to cook. I actually can do a really good taco salad. Something along the lines of that. I cook all the time, though. I love grilling steaks and doing the vegetables and the baked potatoes and the yams and all that. But it would be some sort of healthy dish with a good vegetable and probably a sweet potato.

NEVILLE: I’m not the best cook, but what I’m going to say is mince and dumplings. OK? So mince and dumplings is a traditional English dish that I grew up with. It’s very much a working-class dish.

My mom used to make it for me all the time, growing up. It’s like starchy dumplings, very starchy. And we call it mince, but you call it ground beef. It’s ground beef and gravy and it’s with all trimmings. You’ve got vegetables and ... it’s a British staple, but it’s one that’s very close to my heart. It’s one that fits in the category of British home cooking. Us Brits, we don’t do restaurants very well, but home cooking -- or at least my mom, she did it excellent.

KEVIN OWENS: I’d order the best pizza there is. Seriously. Nah, I’ve cooked for my wife. It’s unfortunately a lot more rare these days, because I’m very busy. But I make a mean meatloaf. She enjoys it. I’ve made it for my parents before. They liked it, too. That’s about it, you know? [laughs] It’s the one thing I learned to make in like home ec. back in the day that stuck with me.

RYBACK: You know what? I think I would like to know what it would be like to be the Big Show. To go through what he goes through. I’m big, but he’s a giant. [I’d like] to see some of the difficulties that he experiences in day-to-day life.

NEVILLE: Maybe Braun Strowman. [laughs] Just because it’s such an alternate universe from who I am. It would be fun just to be this giant, masquerading, just telling people what to do and throwing my weight around. That would be a fun 24 hours.

KEVIN OWENS: Oh, Finn Bálor. Have you seen him? Come on. Get outta here.

RYBACK: Honestly, at this point in my career, any role would be great for me, as long as it is a good role. I’ve always said I feel like there’s nothing I can’t do. If you’ve seen me early on in my WWE career, I played a corn-fed, meathead cowboy from College Station, Texas. I’ve never even been to College Station, Texas. I think there is nothing I can’t do and I would welcome any roles at this point and time in my career.

NEVILLE: Oh! What a question! [laughs] OK, let me think. I’ll put a lot of thought in this one. Strange answer, but I’m going to go with Lester Burnham, from American Beauty. His struggle is very close to my heart.

He lives this life of materialism and just a very shallow existence. And one day, a switch just clicks and he starts pursuing things that are more rewarding and satisfying on a deeper level. He realizes what’s genuinely important, you know, family. And he -- excuse my French -- all the bullsh--, he just shuns. And that’s something I can just very much respect and very much relate to. It’s so good. One of the top three movies for me.

KEVIN OWENS: Hmm. That’s a pretty interesting one. You know, I think I’d probably have them remake Jurassic Park. Just because I feel like it’d be cool to run away from dinosaurs. I could be any of those guys. I’d be, probably, Jeff Goldblum’s character. He’s definitely the coolest one there.

NEVILLE: I’m the big spoon. Surprisingly. [laughs]

KEVIN OWENS: Oh, definitely the big one. Yes.

RYBACK: That is the only way that the Big Guy eats his hot dogs, is with ketchup. The girlfriend likes to do ketchup, mustard, relish and I [always say] “What are you putting all that crap on there for?” Ketchup only, for me.

KEVIN OWENS: Oh, I do it all the time. [laughs] Is that an issue here? Is that right? It’s not a problem at all with me.
