This is incredible footage! I’m 56 and remember Ernie when he was a kid and all the gymnasts he mentioned. I mean, not to take anything away from Bruce Lee, he’s my hero, but you just never see interviews with guys like Ernie Reyes Jr. or people even mentioning guys like him! Thanks Scott, and for what it’s worth, I think you should’ve been Batman by now!

Love Ernie Reyes Jr. and this interview, thank you for bringing him back into my life Scott!

Erie Reyes Jr. was & is a tremendous inspiration & motivation for me growing up & all my life. So much that everyone in my family nicknamed me Ernie's character's name from TMNT 2, "Keno". Especially because I would channel him in my Martial Arts performances like he would channel Bruce Lee. It would always go back to him, Ernie. This interview was an amazing gift for me. Don't get me wrong, I am so very grateful & appreciative. No terms, words,... to describe how much and what I think & feel. So incredibly, infinitely, beyond,... that I'm also disappointed that it was such a short tease of an interview. An extended tease of the teaser. There was no mention of "FINAL FU". One of my favorite shows. I would also watch WMAC MASTERS with the hope of seeing Ernie Reyes Jr. on there some day. Which he much deserved to be among those other Martial Artists. But, I take what I can get. Thank you Scott & Ernie for making my very long waited dream come true. ERNIE REYES JR., SIR YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!! AN INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL HUMAN BEING, EXPRESSING,...

As a young Filipino boy in the 90s, Ernie Reyes Jr. was my hero. We share the same last name, and I remember trying to found out if we were related back when I was in elementary school. We aren't related, but I started learning martial arts because of him, Jackie Chan, and Bruce Lee. But man, I had all of his movies on VHS, and watched them all of the time.
