Sentiment: POSITIVE
I listened to the veteran wrestlers that had tons of experience, like Leo Burke. I was never really alone.
One thing I was proud of when I did the college talks was that, although stories revolved around experiences that I had in wrestling, one did not need to be a wrestling fan to enjoy them.
Ric Flair, The Freebirds, and The Rockers were great influences in my decision to become a wrestler.
'Dancing with the Stars' was a really great experience. People were definitely surprised that I'm a fighter, or they couldn't believe I'm a professional fighter, but I feel like I'm going to get that for a while. I'm excited to bring a new demographic over to MMA and the UFC.
The likes of Sugar Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran, Tommy Hearns were true champions. There were some incredible fights between us, and I was happy to give them all an opportunity to fight me.
I wasn't a wrestling fan growing up; I knew who Hulk Hogan was and stuff but I didn't watch it. I started watching wrestling about three years before I got involved with WCW.
When I was in Seattle, I listened to Carlos Guillen and other older players.
I'm a professional wrestler at heart, and I miss it.
I grew up watching wrestling.
I love Delta Burke!
