Leon Slater Calls TNA World Title Reign Surreal
“It feels very surreal, man. It took a while for it to settle in because I kind of felt like I was carrying Nic Nemeth’s belt around for a while just because I’ve so used to seeing him with it.— Leon Slater
Leon Slater became the youngest TNA World Champion in history after defeating Nic Nemeth at Bound for Glory, achieving the feat five years ahead of his own prediction. In a recent interview, the 22-year-old described how it took time to sink in that the title was his, noting he initially felt like he was carrying Nemeth's belt. Slater added that he still lives at home and recently had the championship on his TV table while playing GTA with friends, struggling to process the reality.
