After wrestling with myself for six months, I began medical treatment. During that time I started a band with some friends of mine called Jack's Car, but that didn't last.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I done wrestled with an alligator, I done tussled with a whale; handcuffed lightning, thrown thunder in jail; only last week, I murdered a rock, injured a stone, hospitalised a brick; I'm so mean I make medicine sick.
My freshman year of high school, I started wrestling, and I ended up loving it more than anything I'd ever done.
When my job isn't performing in a WWE ring, my job is to get back performing in that ring. When I'm hurt, all I have to do all day is get strong and get better. I'm a very dedicated physical therapy patient, and that helps a lot.
I'm in three bands, and I love to produce records of other bands, and I have a family that I love. I wanted to be everything for everybody and do all of that... I think I just really beat myself up until I got really sick and needed surgery, because it was physically manifesting itself.
When I was a kid, I wrestled my high school amateur wrestling in junior year.
I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, and I'm happy, Doctor, I finally won out over it.
I was a wrestler. I played football, lacrosse. After high school, I got into jujitsu. I boxed my whole adult life.
Due to the injuries that I will have for the rest of my life, it is physically impossible for me to consider any career in wrestling.
Instead of being like the other kids going to soccer or football practice, I was wrestling every day.
To me, wrestling is therapy. No matter how bad my personal situation is, when I step into the ring, all my troubles disappear. My baggage stays in the back where it belongs.
