Simon Gotch hates Enzo's rap song, Aiden English, getting fired, would he return to WWE? 

You got Simon at his best right there. Very genuine and honest person that I can see getting to know and seeing that you got a good half an hour in a interview was awesome ...

does Simon have a podcast? i could listen to him talk forever.

Chris has got to be the best listener cause every wrestler seems so chilled around him, love it, please keep doing these interviews

26:00 Enzo Amore comment 23:02 CM Punk UFC comment

Simon Gotch is quickly becoming my favorite person on earth.

I like how chris just adepts to anyone he's interviewing so they feel absolutely comfortable and the fact you don't interrupt is even better! you're like the wrestling Ariel helwani with your interviews

I’d love to see Gotch rebranded and brought back to NXT I always enjoyed the guy & he comes off as an intelligent dude

One of your best interviews to date. Also, I'm loving the summary clip at the end.

I Like this cat WAY more since this interview...Intelligent man.

25:55 - On Enzo, and Simon's correct assessment on the law and Enzo being in poor taste at best31:11 - On Aiden English and the Rusev Day gimmick (what I came here for)32:03 - On if and how he'd return From the sound of things, Simon believes in English a LOT. Good guy.

Theres some distasteful humour in this video. I like it.

"Which worst case scenario, he did commit the act of rape, he lucked out because unfortunately, the reality of criminal proceedings is that they are financial acts. *Lack of evidence usually means that they don’t want to spend any more money trying to gather evidence. That it’s not been easy enough to justify the cost and they’re going to move on. This is not uncommon in cases of sexual assault because again, you rarely have any sort of evidence beyond DNA and all that really shows is that a sex act occurred. It does not show whether or not that act was consensual.* So it’s just a he said, she said situation, unfortunately. So that means worst case scenario, he did a diss track on a woman he raped. So best case scenario he’s an awful human being, worst case scenario he’s a monster." Real talk, Gotch is fucking smart

Yet again, the great Chris Van Vliet provides us with another tremendous interview. Continue to keep up the phenomenal work, Mr. Van Vliet! Simon Gotch is quite insightful!

I love Simon. I was able to meet him shortly after his release and worked and interacted with him often at his ROH appearances. He is a very intelligent individual and has a unique sense of humor. I think that throws people off and they assume he's arrogant or not a nice guy.

This is has been one of my favorite interviews you have done

I've seen multiple interviews with Simon now, and he just gets more and more interesting. It really stinks that he never really got to showcase himself the way he wanted in WWE. He's a super interesting guy, good talker, very engaging, but you never would have known that if you just watched his main roster stuff. Also, I'm happy too see any interview where someone shits on Alex Jones and Enzo Amore in a ten minute time frame. Really fun interview, and, yeah, this could have easily gone two hours.

Great interview, regardless of what people say about the man, he seemed like a genuine and down to earth guy in this interview :)

r.i.p vader

That was a nice genuine interview with Simon gotch.... I didn't really get to see him much but I would love to see more of him after this interview

This was AMAZING to watch love all of his stories and I totally wanna see an English/Gotch Storyline in the future

This has to be the longest Van Vliet interview & its worth it ive always liked Simon

Lol what you said about how “they’ll watch the interview, like it, and move on without subscribing” is so true 😅 I’ve seen a few of your interviews now and never subbed. After hearing that, though, I did. 👍🏻

very good interview Chris, I have seen some videos before of yours. Saw this on reddit today, watched the entire video it was very entertaining! Keep it up and I am subscribing for more!

It's almost soothing listening to this guy. I don't want this interview to end. it's entertaining and genuine.

Man ive seen this interview like 15 times i love this so much

Awesome interview chris as always very chilled and comfortable.

really a great interview. what a well spoken man. sad he didnt got the chance to talk more in wwe. wish him all the best in the future.

I never knew Simon was so, i don't if this is the right word... but perceptive and realistic, NOT THAT I EXPECTED HIM NOT TO BE, but so many guys have some level of inflated ego/sense of self. He was very realistic and perceptive of everything he said in both bigging himself up and saying where he himself or others cut himself short. LIstening to him talk he comes off as a very down to earth, relateable, smart guy.

watched the whole thing, thanks for all the lovely videos! You are great at what you do! I really loved that Batista interview you did back then for 007 keep it up!!!

Who hates fake acounts of famous wrestlers

I’m a year late and I gotta say Damnnn What a great interview!! I loved this!! I’m a fan of 30 Min interviews

Your interviews are awesome. Keep up the good work

I feel like Simon could easily do stand up/entertainment. He's sharp as a tack

I could listen to Simon tell stories all day. Such a shame we didn’t get to see more of him in WWE

Simon is really smart and a well spoken guy.

Another Fantastic interview again.

Simon Gotch seems cool asf. I can see me and him getting along great.

Gotch is quite witty

I unexpectedly finished the whole interview, because I enjoyed the way the interview was going. Especially, the way that Simon Gotch would answer openly and honestly. He makes references that would give clarity to his answers.

This was a great interview and this is the first time I'm seeing your work. I love it !!!

This was really fun I enjoyed this

To be honest I have listened to two of Simon's interviews and if they brought him back I would cheer for him even if his character was free

Man I just really dig these interviews. The way you interview almost seems like you're buddies with the wrestler. Totally just subbed!!

Man, simon is so chill. You wouldn't know it from watching him wrestle, but he seems like such a cool dude. Great interview

I love this form of interviews. It just feels like 2 dudes just hanging out and having fun. Nothing seemed to be scripted or boring. I loved it

"The lifecycle of fandom is to discover something, fall in love with it, develop a disdain for it, and then eviscerate it." Just these words alone has forced me to rethink how I approach things, and even people I like.

Appreciate your level of work, man. Keep it going, was happy to sub.

watching this 2 years later , still an amazing interview

This dude is legit a hybrid of Eddie Guerrero , Anthony Keidis and Brandon Boyd from Incubus into one person

SImon Gotch seems so smart and such a great person to have a conversation with.

Man...I actually really want to meet this dude and have a conversation with him. I never was a fan of him in WWE (his character), but listening to his interviews since, I can tell he is a great dude and super intelligent at that.

I love Simon Gotch’s shoot interviews, he is so blunt with what he says. Seems like a genuine guy.

36:26 Thank you Chris for the best interviews.

excellent interview with Simon.

Chris does such a good job. I really enjoy his interviews more than most.

I just love Simon/Seth. Such a real dude with sound and intelligent opinions. I really do hope he gets to fulfil his wrestling dreams on a grand stage once more. The wrestling world needs more people like him.

Watched until the end and subscribed, a pleasure as always (still not better than the interview with Celeste^^)

Not a knock: Surprisingly Simon is pretty smart, would be a dope road agent.

Listen to 3 interviews from this man tonight he is now my favorite wrestler

Totally subscribed, this interview was golden.

great interview Chris! keep it up

Chris, great interview and entertaining as always!

Definitely one of the best interviews I've seen

today july 27 2019 i subscribed so thank both you Chris and Simon.

Simon Gotch pretty, looking friendly and handsome man

Simon should do a podcast. Also that Enzo impression is spot on

Awesome interview. Thank you!!!!

Glad i watched this again.Looking foward to seeing him in portland on the 29th.

Great interview

Most entertaining interview with a wrestler I've seen. I gave the video a thumbs up and will be checking out other videos on this channel.

You know, Because of this I'm buying a collar and elbow shirt now. Planning on the ' Support a local wrestler ' one. Also great interview. Genuinely would have this as a straight up podcast with you and Simon shooting on wrestlers ect

I've fallen off watching wrestling and I've never watched Simon Gotch wrestle, but I loved the interview and he seems like such an interesting and intelligent guy. I would love to see another one that goes on for hours.

Gotch was thinking Fastlane (i think) and Elimination Chamber in the Apollo Crews reference.

Dude I wish they just let him roll in WWE. He always has the best interviews.

I feel bad. I thought I was already subscribed to this awesome channel but I wasn't. I am now though. Great interview as always.

Great video. Very genuine and reliable dude. You don't see many of them. Perhaps one of the realest WWE superstars of* his time.

Gotch and English were feuding in my universe mode

The irony of Simon hating flight attendants when Enzo got kicked off a flight before Survivor Series.

I watched this whole interview and I wanted to see more. Simon Gotch is a very interesting and smart man. Good interview Chris Van Vliet.

Chris van vliet is a hidden gem that I'm very fortunate to have found on RU-vid your interviews are awesome man great job keep up the good work

He said something about people not getting the “good luck on your future endeavors” from the wwe then Tuesday big cass gets the boot and the same treatment then they say the guy in the background looks like Vader and unfortunately he passed away this week. Eerie foreshadowing

Shame, hope he comes back to WWE, vaudevillians had so much potential

Great interview that has solidified my liking to Gotch. Loved the Vaudevillains and I wish they got a better hand dealt than they did.

Love his in ring work but I love his articulate and witty conversations even more

Wwe blew it with gotch seems like a bright dude

31:00 RIP Vader :(

Amazing interview as always!!

Every time I watch Simon Gotch taking an interview, I can see Daniel Bryan in him. Always genuine, always articulate, always level-headed and always on-point. It kind of show how professional and passionate he was in doing something he love. He's is all in all a good guy with great charisma.

Gotcha seems like an intelligent and funny person and has a perfect Enzo impersonation

He's awesome! That being said he's 6ft at the most.

You keep doing these with Simon, I'll keep watching.

The more and more I hear from him, the more and more I'm liking him what a honest genuine person

THERE IS A REASON THIS MAN HAS 3 EMMY AWARDS. Keep up the excellent work!

Had me at the moment he started talking shit about Alex Jones🤣

I subscribed. You and Simon convinced me. Good job!

I wasn't a huge fan him while in the WWE, but watching his post-WWE interviews I've become a fan of his. He's too good.

Simon is comedy lmao. I like this interview and he really speaking facts

He's like the fourth guy I've heard talking about how great English is and how he refuses to show how good he really is. Are there any videos out there that show off any of his skill?

I was at the hermiston show, you’re great!!

Simon really impressed me with this interview
