    I haven’t been on a national tv wrestling program in 22 years. Thank you to those that remembered me!!! I haven’t forgotten about yall either. The magic of professional wrestling is still very much alive in my soul and I’m so grateful I get to share that once again 🙏

    Ric Flair made me forget that I was sick and in pain while watching the 92 Rumble 2 weeks after my leg amputation from cancer. That's the magic of professional wrestling. If you know you know

    Lost my leg to cancer at 8. Felt like I never fit in. Pro wrestling became an escape and passion. Signed with WWE at 19. Got fired and lost everything to drug and alcohol addiction. Got sober at 26 thru God’s grace. Found a new passion in being of service to those around me.
    What’s the lore behind choosing your career path ?

    He put me in a ring with Hulk Hogan, paid for 2 prosthetic legs out of his pocket, paid for the treatment which saved my life/gave me the foundation to live a life that is indescribably wonderful. I love Vince. I'm gonna give him an uncomfortably long hug next time I see him
    Rare occasion of somebody saying they love vince
