"[The Belt]'s at home resting, kind of like my back right
now," explained Test. "I've just been off the past two weeks
with a back injury. I got the back injury from winning the
hardcore title."
Many wrestling fans also wondered why his featured feud
with McMahon-Helmsley era ended so swiftly, something which
Test admits he doesn't really know the answer to.
"To be honest with you I don't really know. I'm not
of the writers, and I don't write the story. But it freed
her up to do something else, and it moves me on to do
my own thing, so it's great. The whole experience, the whole
storyline worked out great for bothof us, and I'm sure as
soon as I get back in good health it will lead to more things.
He says if the fans want the feud to continue, then they will
dictate most of his future plans, until then, he's enjoying
his status as hardcore champion, even if the comparisons with
Kevin Nash and their similar in-ring styles continue to persist.
"It doesn't bother me at all," said Test. "People make comparisons
to me and Kevin Nash all the time, and if my sucess is only as
good as Kevin Nash's then I'm happy. I mean, the guy has done
tremendously in the business, and I don't take that as an insult."
