Sentiment: POSITIVE
We, as a wrestling community, better remember it is more than one individual that makes a winner.
I won the first contest I ever entered, when I was 6.
I have no idea why I won, man. I guess some people liked the music that I was doing. I'm just lucky. I was just doing my thing each week.
I actually got dared to audition for the dance team. All my track-and-field buddies dared me to audition, and I was one of the few guys who did it.
First of all, I was a wrestling fan when I was young. Even when I figured out what wrestling was, I was still a fan.

Wrestling was like stand-up comedy for me. Every night I had a live audience of 25,000 people to win over. My goal was never to be the loudest or the craziest. It was to be the most entertaining.
When I was a kid, I wrestled my high school amateur wrestling in junior year.
I was a breakdancer as a kid. I was on one of the top break dancing teams in Australia.
In high school and college all my friends and my brother wrestled.
