Curt Hawkins Reveals Why He Has Embraced His Epic WWE Losing Streak

WWE star Curt Hawkins, who suffered his 200th WWE loss on Raw in Houston this past week, when he fell to an enhancement talent named “James Harden”, recently spoke with ESPN to discuss his epic losing streak, how he has come to embrace it and more. Below are some interview highlights.

On the crowd reaction to him losing his 200th match, since returning to WWE in 2016, on Raw in Houston:

“Throughout my career, any time I’ve been a part of a big reaction like that, when you watch it back it’s crazy. It almost doesn’t even do it justice. When you’re there live, it’s way different than when you watch it on television. To me, it was even more deafening. It’s pretty cool, unexpected. I knew it would be an interesting segment for everyone to be a part of, but I think it exceeded expectations.”

“I really have embraced it. I think that’s what’s made it work the way it has,” Hawkins said. “[At] Live Events, we have a little more creative freedom and I do some more fun things. I’ve done a lot of fun things, just laying down on my back to sucker guys in for things, and moments like that that I feel like the crowd can get into and I get into and it winds up being a lot of fun.

“The bottom line is that the streak lets fans care about me winning or losing, whereas before when I was just Curt Hawkins and there was no streak, they didn’t care as much,” Hawkins continued. “Now I feel like when I’m out there people genuinely care if I win or lose or not, you know?”

On what keeps him pushing forward in WWE despite the losing streak?:

“I feel like me having such a good attitude and embracing this whole thing has really just turned it into something really special, and just every day that I get to wrestle is a great day for me.”
