About the show: “PercyJackson The filming was booked and it was attached to the pay-per-view match, the ‘I Quit’ match. That was in Philadelphia on pay-per-view. And so Adam had to fly all the way from Vancouver to Philadelphia, all night, basically not sleeping, and then have a 40-minute match with Finn Balor, which was an ‘I Quit’ match.”

On the handover of his ring equipment: “I flew his equipment, everything he needed for the game, from Asheville to Philadelphia and met him at 11 a.m. on pay-per-view day after he had filmed PercyJackson for about two weeks and chartered a flight straight to Philadelphia. Basically he laid down in the hotel for about 30 minutes and then we had to go into the building and put the coil part together.”
