A fan of

Dr. Wily's theme music as entrance themes.[221] For his final appearance as an NJPW-contracted wrestler at Wrestle Kingdom 13, Smith collaborated with Undertale creator Toby Fox to create a custom entrance video in the style of the game.[222] In addition to video games, Smith also draws inspiration from the television show Star Trek: The Next Generation and superhero cartoons to develop elements of his in-ring persona.[220] At Fyter Fest in June 2019, Smith also donned ring gear that references the character Akuma from the Street Fighter series.[223][224]

LGBT people can identify with our story, ... I'm good with that."
