It's cool that you guys reached out just because you know it's been uh you know I came in. 12 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:41,840 No one really known who I was and then I left for a year like over a year and a half. So you come in 13 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,080 unknown you leave unknown and then when you come when you start to come back people are hitting you 14 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:50,480 up to talk to you. It's kind of crazy so I must have done something right. Look respect brother. 15 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:56,480 I'm gonna tell you I'm gonna tell you straight up like I'm I'm about maybe two years into watching 16 00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:02,240 MLW like real serious. Macho hits me up. He's like yo you seen this week. I'm like nah I haven't 17 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:08,320 checked it yet. He's like yo watch son come in and I'm telling you he looks like if he's on the block 18 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,880 like he's ready to just thug somebody out. So I instantly like yo all right I gotta watch this 19 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:17,360 and the way you come out and I'm gonna use the word allegedly to not get anybody in trouble. 20 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:21,520 But you know when you're about to go thug somebody out around the block and you got that beef and 21 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,840 you walk in like you know I'm about to put the work on you when you walked out like that I was 22 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:32,480 like yo my man must be from New York because he's coming in ready to wreck shop. It's one of those 23 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:37,120 things it's like don't like I'm never like if anyone gets hit by me it's never be you never 24 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:42,640 have to give me the wide you hit me face you know. I mean so that's kind of how you take you take 25 00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:48,960 that you control it and then you monopolize that you know so it's good man it's good. So start off 26 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,320 with your questions brother. Yeah man so obviously it's been a minute you've been doing the thing 27 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,440 however you want to fill people in and out that's your business I ain't gonna press you for it you 28 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:05,120 know that. However you know it looks like you're getting ready to come back and find form you know 29 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,440 getting ready to lay some heat on people and remind people exactly who you are and how you do. 30 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:15,920 So my question to you is you ready you ready to drop this and remind people exactly who you 31 00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:21,280 is and put your name in their mouth. Yeah bro you know it's one of those I'm starting from a 32 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,760 from a whole kind of different perspective right so like I look at it like I'm the only 33 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:33,680 Asian-American wrestler in the world that could speak how I speak in terms of in terms of like 34 00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,240 like I didn't want to say that I forced conviction but like no one is like no one is looking like 35 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:43,600 me coming at this business the way that I'm coming at it in terms of just viewpoint looking 36 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:48,480 think about 20 years after you know type you know that like that type of that type of energy were like 37 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:54,480 I don't I don't I don't I understand where I am like the the opportunity of being where I am the 38 00:03:54,480 --> 00:04:01,280 platform that I'm at but I'm I'm humbly not surprised by where I'm at. Yeah put in that work I'm saying 39 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,600 like it's not even cocky it's just I didn't I didn't know about the first independent show that I 40 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:12,720 intended was the first one I was on. Wow. I didn't I didn't know independence I knew WWE I knew Sting 41 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:17,920 and I knew I knew Sick Nick Mondo off the roof I didn't know anything I just I'm saying just you 42 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,320 just chill with the boys they got on Raw you see Kane Chokesley you see these people it's like oh this 43 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,320 is dope you see Stone Cold you see these people and you're like this is amazing and then you know 44 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:32,560 I'm you know I'm eight years old and John Cena pops on TV and I'm like he's rapping looking jacked 45 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:37,200 any son any body you know I'm saying like I checked all the boxes of what I need to look at 46 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:43,120 you know so then so I thought that was it you know so to me like anything other than that was not 47 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,600 the level that you wanted to to be on and then as you obviously you get into it you have so much 48 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:50,960 more respect for these people that are coming up in the independent independence like they're the 49 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:56,000 best workers in the world and I mean a lot of genuine a lot of genuine people too so you know 50 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,680 you pick it up on that but in terms like the actual like the vision of like television big names 51 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:07,760 big matches moments that matter like that was the only option right so like my thing is I know 52 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:14,320 you're from Brooklyn New York and no I'm not I'm not from Brooklyn I'm not from Brooklyn I was I was 53 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,000 making that joke at the at the at the signing because they didn't know they thought I was gonna 54 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:23,280 they were speaking to me kind of slow so hold up being kind of like um actually a funny story 55 00:05:23,280 --> 00:05:27,760 though one of the read one of the other shows we did it we did an independent show and uh Sumi 56 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:33,360 you know Sumi right so she came she was saying hi to everybody she came up to me she did a little 57 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:38,000 bow and I was like am I am I am I you know I doubt that perspective a bit in my head I was like 58 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:42,800 that's you know that's still the narrative that people yeah I guess put on you know I'm a second 59 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,560 to be black but I'm not gonna not do my martial arts like I'm very disciplined but they don't know 60 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,040 that I have another a whole other element that you could bring to the table now I can communicate 61 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,800 in a whole different way and you got the face to mark it off and now you have a whole different 62 00:05:54,800 --> 00:06:00,640 whole different aspect around it so like business wise like it just makes sense now the contra thing 63 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:06,720 now incredible opportunity but I'm hoping through just being me that they that they see that I don't 64 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:12,400 have to be boxed in yeah and it because then it's forced you have all you know you've made white 65 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:17,120 people tatlido putting made like Japanese lettering on their gear and shit and it's cool as fuck but 66 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:21,440 you put it on but you type you type cast an Asian person doing it and you're supposed to 67 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:26,160 right looks like it's important but if that's not how I look I'm adopted too so all all boxes I don't 68 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:31,200 fit in those in those areas I don't walk around any Asian people like I didn't have like a lot of 69 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:36,320 Asian friends growing up but now you have a platform where you have somebody on the east coast that's 70 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:41,040 not that doesn't the only one that looks like me on every card don't put me in that box because one 71 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:46,240 of not I'm not that and you can't put me there type of thing so I guess the New York like you're 72 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:50,480 like you're saying it protects your uh integrity of what your goals are at all times just being where 73 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:57,600 we're from having to talk fast things fast you know it helps you with it I'm so glad you said that 74 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:05,040 because uh I hate when if you're Russian they want you to act like Ivan Drago if you're Indian 75 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:10,160 they want you to be like some kind of Bollywood but like why can't talents just be them that's my 76 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:16,080 biggest beef with this industry if they feel that well this is what you are then this is how you have 77 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:21,040 to be and it's like like calm down with that because I'm so much more this but what borough are you 78 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:28,000 from is what I'm curious no it's funny even funny out Long Island get the hell out of you even more 79 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:33,280 so you know just spending time um over you know I still got people over you know I have people in 80 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,440 the brother people in Brooklyn people in Queens or whatnot but um you know went to school went to 81 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,360 school in Long Island you know all my home music from Long Island like a lot of them grew up in the 82 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,720 city you know came here and all that stuff but are you south are you like uh are you towards my wife 83 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:52,560 is from uh Belport Long Island so that's D oh no like the sticks that's like Alabama Long Island 84 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:57,600 like no we're not from there no we're from I'm from I'm from NASA I'm like okay so you're borderline 85 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:08,160 Queens NASA okay okay that's what's up yeah man so I mean you pointed out something that I don't 86 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,720 think many people get and that's like when New York gets under your skin you know you're born and raised 87 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:19,120 in New York so you know we come off we can be real respectful and real understanding of the 88 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:24,560 situation or we can get get in it with people if you know they come up they come in correct 89 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:29,920 and chef and I've had these conversations a bunch of times we we we know the deal so we get that 90 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:37,920 one of the things I'm really curious about ultimately is where you want to see yourself 91 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:43,440 in like the next year or so like what is your short-term plan like getting back in it feeling 92 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:47,840 healthy being good you know getting back in your groove in your swing are you going to take a 93 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:53,600 shot at a belt are you going to just want to put on some banger matches like what what is it you 94 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,880 really want to do you're greedy for this question yeah yeah I mean like so like personal personally 95 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:04,720 like again it's it's it's continuously changing the narrative of what um my character is what 96 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:10,000 Contra is what MLW is you know I'm saying like people can look at oh I want to go to MLW so I 97 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,840 could go to AW NXT like if we change the narrative the MLW is not stepping stone that's the platform 98 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:21,360 that's my goal you know I'm saying the the the textures only remain the same no longer we say 99 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,800 you know I'm saying so like you know yeah I mean they just they announced a TV deal recently so I 100 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,800 mean like that's that's huge dude and they've been on TV and you gotta look at the talent and look 101 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,960 and look even behind the scenes these are people who have worked at the dance you know I'm saying and 102 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:39,840 then they made their own so it's like people like we're cheap we're talking like it's not upstairs 103 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:44,320 yeah sure we might not be doing rooftop numbers you know I'm saying or like rooftop money and a 104 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,240 lot of different aspects but we're upstairs like people are waiting around line just to try to peek 105 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:52,000 inside and see what's going on like only the elite of the like you're not coming up there because 106 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,840 people feel bad for you you're not coming up there because you know somebody you're coming up there 107 00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:01,440 because they let you in yeah I mean like that's like the crowds the crowds are hype when when 108 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:07,200 you guys just pop in before COVID like the crowds was just popping and just like excited to be there 109 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,080 and you can't it's so hard to just get that kind of like genuine excitement out of something and you 110 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:17,760 guys really pull that out of fans so like that's fun to watch you know a different type of fans too 111 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:22,400 bro my better cut you off no they're uh they're different type of fans like you go to a like 112 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:27,120 other independent show and they're like very smart crowds in terms of like oh he might have 113 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:32,000 botched there like oh that was um that was a good use of uh heat right yeah like so like they're 114 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,520 trying to dissect and what maybe they did maybe they did wrestling school once or twilight who knows 115 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:41,040 right but the mlw crowd like they're like all in like how I used to hear about how crowds were 116 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:45,680 like that's how they are we're in Texas they hated us because they were supposed to they didn't like 117 00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:49,360 us because we're the bad guys we're the why would you know I'm saying it was just very genuine like 118 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:54,800 storybook reaction timing and all that's the being exposed to that was just super crazy you know 119 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:01,440 so yeah good experience and all around and good people so if you you got a couple of questions 120 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:07,600 you know I see me I'm listen I enjoy this because he feels like he's home you know what I mean like 121 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:11,600 talking to him I feel like I'm talking to somebody I mess with on the block and all that so I just 122 00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:16,480 enjoyed this but when you said and I keep telling people is exactly what you said all these people 123 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:21,680 that want to go somewhere get seen and go somewhere else I keep telling people if you want the company 124 00:11:21,680 --> 00:11:27,040 that you're ready to get to a certain level you got to make your show that thing you got to make it 125 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:33,200 I want my mania moment but I want my mlw moment the next kid that comes up has to say that about mlw 126 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:39,840 and you 100 positive right now being from where you're from where did you train did you train 127 00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:46,880 because I'm curious because I only know one school in Long Island and I think it's NYC 128 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:53,920 NYWC yeah yeah that's where you trained no no no that's actually um that's where I made up my first 129 00:11:53,920 --> 00:12:00,160 like debut type thing I made a run in for my my trainer but okay but full circle that's where I got 130 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:06,800 injured too oh wow funny enough um good good place no good good guys over there um no I trained 131 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:12,640 um for FTW fight the world fight the world wrestling um my trainer Kona Kapucha he's an 132 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,720 independent wrestler he's actually just he's actually starting to uh make a resurgence right away 133 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:23,920 he's he's having a match in uh in March I'm gonna pop out for that um but yeah man that was someone 134 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:30,640 who uh and then the other the other school is creative pro it's over there okay okay um but uh 135 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,400 yeah no it was one of those where I looked at creative pro and I saw how that worked and it was 136 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,800 it was obviously impressive it was almost like you know dodgeball it's like it was global gym 137 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:44,640 and there was average joes but like I kind of I like I like the rusty weight feel I kind of like 138 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:49,920 that like even though I knew obviously like not even want to say shortcut wise but I guess like 139 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:55,600 expansion of knowledge wise having you know uh Ryan Myers and having the you know Zach Ryder 140 00:12:55,600 --> 00:13:00,240 come down all his boys come down and like you know you want to hear what they gotta say right you 141 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,480 got and you've got you know MJS over there you got people you got people who are who are guys over 142 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:10,480 there but at the same time it's like you know the ropes the ropes you know I'm saying like 143 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:15,760 knowledge and exposure there's an always Nick there was always you know dictate leadership 144 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:19,520 and whatnot so like and also the type of people you're gonna be around you know I'm saying I don't 145 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,600 need a class of 30 you know I might need a class of five and there was a time it was about like a 146 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:28,240 four or five month period but I was the only student it was just me and him and we did it in 147 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,880 an MMA dojo so it was just there was just positivity and just work all around everybody look people 148 00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,000 beating the shit out of each other beating the shit out of a bag they looked over here they heard 149 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,840 us slam they heard us cry and they heard us believe saw us bleeding so it was just like 150 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,520 this you know continuous work and then it was just a comfortable environment where like I felt like 151 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:49,200 I sped up a lot of the the training process just because it was that one-on-one type of thing so 152 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:57,040 and the investment kind of started. So if you had to pick one person that inspired you and I know 153 00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,600 you kind of said Sting but was Sting that person that when you were a kid you were like that's what 154 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:08,000 I'm gonna be when I get older what made you want to get into wrestling? Oh um damn so no so like 155 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:12,960 basically Sting was just the face that I always walked by in blockbuster when I was with my mom 156 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,240 and I'm just walking down looking at random movies and it was like sounds like what the fuck movie is 157 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:24,160 that like I never knew and then one day um I turned on the TV it was like a family party you know 158 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:28,240 it's mad whack I don't want to be with my family I want to go watch TV I can't find the remote so I 159 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,400 just you know press the button and shit I'm looking at it and smackdown zone when it was on upn that's 160 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:38,400 what I was looking at and John Cena is just ripping apart you guys he's got the throwback jersey I 161 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,040 think I was probably wearing a jersey at the time but I was like he's rapping right I was like why is 162 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,960 he rapping and why is there a crowd there and why is there other people there where is he at what 163 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:51,200 kind of stages that why is there a big ass like fist up top like what's what you know what's going on 164 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:55,920 and then I who's talking in the background over him rapping like what's you know like what's like 165 00:14:55,920 --> 00:15:01,440 what's going on and then he ran in there and picked them all up I was like you know so I guess 166 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:05,840 John Cena and that way but I thought it was one of those things like you're 16 or 17 years old so 167 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:11,120 you just I didn't know who's in another room I kept going to that room to watch and press that channel 168 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,960 just hoping it was there and I mean then one day my mom saw me she was like you know that's wrestling 169 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,560 right I was like I don't want you doing that and I was like you don't want to be doing it because 170 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,920 now I'm not so it's one of you know it's one of those things and um and that was it ever since 171 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:27,360 then but then you fell in love with you know and then Eddie Guerrero came into my life in terms of 172 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,520 just looking at like you know how and then like he kept and then now like with all this knowledge 173 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:37,280 that oh no he captured me that's why I liked it yeah I didn't know he had a dope brain buster when I 174 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,120 was eight I knew that he captured me into what he was doing now you know what I'm saying so it's like 175 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:47,760 but it stayed it stayed that way so like you know him you know Kurt Angle um you know that type of 176 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,840 thing um but it's you know and then obviously your taste changes you grew older but it was just 177 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:58,400 I was just team WWE I didn't know anything else that's what's up I mean you can't go wrong on that list 178 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:05,440 those are all legends like yeah we was talking we were just kicking it back talking about uh 179 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:11,680 John Cena and going back to his heel roots for a minute it's like my my hold up don't lie don't lie 180 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:20,080 you were trashed and Cena and I was telling you don't do that and I said I said I said I got no no 181 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:26,000 no I said I wanted him to come back to Thuganomics and Chain Gang and he never came back never 182 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:33,680 my heart is on here don't do that I got the receipt I said he never came back he left me behind 183 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:39,840 I never got my heel returned and I was sad about it it made me feel some kind of way um 184 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:46,880 but no see Cena put in the work absolutely a lot of these a lot of these vessels put in the work 185 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:52,000 I also said he's absolutely a Hall of Famer like there's no doubt everybody knows he put that work 186 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:59,200 in you know everybody he's synonymous match can I cut you off real quick cut away top try we would 187 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:03,200 and I'm glad he's on you we were thinking about doing a show that we want to talk about our 188 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:08,400 favorite top 10 belts and our favorite like our least favorite if you had to pick one title 189 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:14,640 that goes around your waist what title would it be damn I mean see there's different reasons right 190 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:18,640 for what for what that is like because of the people that I like growing up like they're the 191 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,400 world champs now but they were the US champ when I was watching because I was a Smackdown dude 192 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:26,880 so it was like the US title was crazy and that's spinner belt and that came out bro I was nine I 193 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:34,160 was looking at I was like the US spinner belt though I was like no way yeah no that yeah that belt 194 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:39,440 that that belt for that time you know it doesn't make sense now but I mean like I but that that 195 00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:46,160 would be a belt and then the the WWE belt that anyone the old two that the that one that that 196 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:50,080 was hard and I learned one of the dudes that did my one of my tattoos he used to work for 197 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:55,520 WWE he designed that belt get out of here yeah he designed that belt he did I think he said he 198 00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:59,680 did Lesnar's back or some shit too like he's dope as hell and then when warrior died he's like free 199 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:04,400 warrior mass tattoos he's a he's tattoos by Keith that's a free club he's he's he's dope I don't 200 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,960 know where he's at now but he's he's he's that's what's up for some reason I would put the million 201 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:14,080 dollar belt on you I'm ignorant like that I think that's the dopest belt ever but on my fault 202 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:21,520 box that's not and now we know you bougie bro it's cool it's cool the smoking skull belt for me 203 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:26,560 that's iconic that thing is wicked looking as hell dude it was great when it happened and I 204 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:33,440 missed that I was like two years old I missed that shit like this see now you showing your age 205 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:41,280 so listen as of right now we got Leo Rush as the middleweight champ I'm not even going to start 206 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:47,760 I love his work I'm not a fan I'm not a fan macho weds and I keep saying I want you to beat the 207 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:53,600 shit out of him but take the belt from him you don't like if yo Leo Leo can go in the ring dude 208 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:59,280 hold up we're not talking to Leo we're talking to him I'm just saying this Kwan Kwan got the 209 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:04,000 skill set to put a hurt on it mind know this I've seen his work all right it would be a burner of 210 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:10,400 a match if it happens yeah you know I'm team contra all the way so that's easy that's the 211 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:15,680 belt that I keep saying needs to be around this man right here and I don't care who wants to have 212 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:22,160 a problem with it this man should be the middleweight champ and if there was one if you had to go for 213 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:27,520 the tag belts on middleweight because right now Jacob Fattu was holding the heavyweight which belt 214 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:33,280 in MLW would be the one you want to target I'm that middleweight belts looking nice you know what 215 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:39,360 I mean in terms of establishing um but if like I'm really if I'm gonna be like like cocky for it 216 00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:45,120 that that national open weight with hammers don't think anymore you know what I mean because I don't 217 00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:51,120 you know to be typecasted in again another middleweight right so you know national open weight 218 00:19:51,120 --> 00:19:57,360 you know he's a big boy you know what I mean like we've got nothing I'm like bro it's like you're 219 00:19:57,360 --> 00:20:02,960 too big like you won you won that gym like you won you know I'm saying you don't gotta go there like 220 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:10,480 but yeah that's that's something too where like you know you know uh when you beat someone your 221 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:13,840 size is smaller it's expected but when someone's bigger than you and you're knocking out it's 222 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,560 respected you know I'm saying that's the difference you know I'm saying I don't want to have fights 223 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:22,000 that are expected I want to respect the fights that's that low-key level shit right there but 224 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,040 but not that not that Leo Rush wouldn't be a legitimate fight you know what I'm saying like 225 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,200 he's like we're the same age like and he put yeah yeah yeah and he you know I'm saying he's verified 226 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:35,280 he did his he did his work you know I'm saying but um but yeah in terms of just like the idea of 227 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,600 breaking down somebody to where like that whole that whole mindset of like if you're if you're 228 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,760 you know 10 feet 4 feet I'm putting you 6 feet so it doesn't matter you know I'm saying like that's 229 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:50,000 have a mindset so that's like if you know I would love because I love your Instagram not even a lie 230 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,520 to you and for people who might not know who do see this look at this man's Instagram and I'm 231 00:20:55,520 --> 00:21:00,400 going to put it in the description in our links because you're one of the very few wrestlers 232 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:05,680 that you fight with such an aggressive style that you could fight someone way bigger than you and 233 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:10,640 it looks believable which in this day and age everybody is on this I need everything to look 234 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:16,560 believable like you'll stay you know jump off someone grounded pound and throw throw bows on him 235 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:21,040 or you had that one when you flipped over the rope and I've never seen it before where you hit the 236 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:27,360 guy with a high knee but landed on your feet yeah I was like I was like yo this man is out of control 237 00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:33,760 ridiculous so it's like your moveset is like a cheat sheet like you know like when you got that 238 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:38,880 OD gas wrestler when you make a video game character that's you like you can't you can't make my 239 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:45,440 moveset in the game I try it's not this listen I'm not I'm not trying to stop like I've seen stuff 240 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:51,040 and I'm like yo I've never even seen this on like crazy video games and I was like man I see this 241 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,280 because I'm not I didn't mean to cut you off again but you know why and this is like the like the 242 00:21:55,280 --> 00:22:00,400 jewel underneath the like I was always self-conscious of the ignorance that I had of not knowing who 243 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:05,040 people are albeit locker rooms rubbing shows with people that could probably like you know chop it 244 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:09,520 up with and I don't even know them from a hole in the wall yeah we're at an independent show 245 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,880 I bump shows with a guy by accident I'll probably text in or like doing something else 246 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,800 and the dude like kind of gave me an attitude at least I thought and I kind of pressed him 247 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:20,560 and then whatever like he kind of walked away I'll walk the way he knows whatever my boy my tag 248 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:25,600 partner gave Scott shadows gave Scott you should check him out too I can't speak enough about him 249 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:30,160 he um he told me you know who that is right I was like he's about he's a he's a fucking 250 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:38,240 dick like I don't care who he was like that's Zach Saber Jr. oh like and I said who because and that 251 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:43,280 and respectfully I didn't know who we were yeah yeah yeah and it was just one of those things like 252 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:46,640 you got like you know there's there's there's politics in this in this whole thing you know what I'm 253 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:51,920 saying like you don't got to do nothing wrong to do something wrong yeah you know what I mean so like 254 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:59,760 um that was one but again now going back to the moveset I'm fans of of a very short list my knowledge 255 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:05,440 of matches and and things that have gone on in the wrestling world are like very detailed in that 256 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:10,240 small bubble you know I'm saying I know what Eddie girl wore October 27 I'm saying but I don't know 257 00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:16,960 what happened I don't know Japan or you know I'm saying things like that um so none of my 258 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:21,040 movesets are mimic they're things that either I know how to do or done or wanted to do to somebody 259 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,400 so I can't copy a style I don't have I don't have one to copy from 260 00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:32,080 help now I'm a big basketball guy grew up playing it you're super athletic I'm curious if you grew 261 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:41,040 up playing basketball because you have a coordination that feels like very hood but like very athletic 262 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:46,240 like basketball shit too yeah not yeah not I played everything you know because I mean I was 263 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:51,600 always smaller so like you know I was the I was the one that just tired everybody out pretty much 264 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:56,240 so I didn't so my mom stuck me in everything it wasn't just if I was like she stuck me in karate 265 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,200 because she thought that would tire me out but that just made me more hyped because now I know how to 266 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:08,400 fight but I'm just trying to punch it now but yeah no I play basketball uh soccer um you know uh 267 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:14,080 lacrosse up to lacrosse I did um yeah like you know just really stay busy all three seasons I was 268 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,320 staying busy if I stuck to one I would if I stuck to one I would probably I would I would have 269 00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,400 saw it through college because I would eat so many I didn't spoke I wasn't think I was on it was 270 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:27,040 wrestling so I was like why would I play a sport and in college I'm playing I'm gonna wrestle 271 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:32,400 it was tears so I was kind of like how I was thinking about it my full macho if I'm jumping on 272 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:37,840 all these questions no no no man it's good shit um one of my favorite questions to ask 273 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:44,000 us a professional wrestler is what is your favorite uh uh person do you do you prefer 274 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,480 a heel work or do you prefer a face work like is there a difference for you like some people 275 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,560 like one or the other it's just more fun for them so I'm curious about where you're at with it 276 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:57,120 clearly you're having fun doing contouring doing some some heavy heel work right now so where's 277 00:24:57,120 --> 00:25:07,520 that at well um man um there's like the heat's cool because it's a controllable 278 00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:11,200 feel it's a weird feeling you know I mean like but it's it's more comfortable than getting 279 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,440 cheered it's like people trying to say happy birthday to you when it's just like I don't 280 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:20,400 know but when you're you're hated they're like yeah if I don't hate on me type it you know I mean 281 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:25,120 because with the contrast stuff it's so different because there's power behind the heat there's 282 00:25:25,120 --> 00:25:29,920 aura behind the heat with the face stuff it's like very much so if you don't like me and I want 283 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:35,200 you to like me it looks pretty bad yeah and it looks forced and you know and you want and also 284 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,920 you was like a chip on your shoulder like you know like you said with social media I'm the worst 285 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,520 wrestler in social media because I don't do anything wrestling so I just don't I'm just not a 286 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:46,240 wrestling social media I forget I have a million posts I don't I'm not thirsty for followers I 287 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,560 don't be following wrestlers I don't be like I don't be doing none of that I just have it I just 288 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:55,040 had it you know I mean like I made Twitter because they told me to I didn't even you know I mean like 289 00:25:56,480 --> 00:26:00,320 I mean no because you know how it is back in the day people you know I mean like you know I love I 290 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:05,280 love Battle Rat too and uh there's a guy you know Gichi God he had a bar he said he said we don't do 291 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:09,360 the Twitter stuff but back in my day like in my era someone was trying to follow you they were 292 00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:14,320 trying to kill you I don't want to follow you yeah thanks it was one of those it was like okay you 293 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:22,160 know so hold up I love the battle rap scene right now what is your favorite battle rap that's happened 294 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:32,000 I'm not even gonna lie to you I like damn I like Arsenal because he's so disrespectful but like who 295 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:39,920 right now would you say is is killing it and your favorite battle rap um I'm a big fan of Rum Nitty 296 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:45,920 me dot um those types you know that type of talk um grown up and still to this day with music wise to 297 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:53,600 um hey Sean and uh Su-Surf Su-Surf I listen to Su-Surf at least every day so he's on the playlist 298 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:59,520 um but yeah it's most it's it's like and again the music music matures the wrestling matures with 299 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,000 how you mature and grow up as like as a man and adult too many wrestlers are trying to redo high 300 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:09,600 school they're trying to be able to do a couple push-ups and get and you know get like a like a 301 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,280 okay looking girl now they're gonna act like you know mean like they were fucking wearing 302 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:17,200 letterman jackets you know I'm saying before years like no you wasn't you was allowed to sit at the 303 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:22,000 table don't act like you were but that's okay don't don't try to be like them yeah you understand 304 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,920 like type of things we're like that's that's like the whole difference of that's like those bars and 305 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:31,280 the music where it's talking about like we're not talking about um cars and all this bullshit we're 306 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:36,080 talking about stocks we're talking about art we're talking about ownership you know I'm saying like 307 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,000 just like like expanding your portfolio like generational wealth like that's what we mean like 308 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,520 that's the type of time we're on and if you're not on that like there's a you mean there's a 309 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,600 different texture like and that's like all the bullshit that's been coming up recently a lot of 310 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,600 people getting in trouble getting you know getting exposed for a lot of things it's like you know 311 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:57,200 it's just as backwards because I said this before and I like don't like to speak on a lot because 312 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,320 people just like the twist and it's just not I mean it's just not cool but you know it's like 313 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:07,120 people are not man I swear he was good but who's checking you guys you know I'm saying no one's 314 00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:11,520 checking the doorman you know that's what I mean like you're you're allowed and you're allowing 315 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:17,360 weirdos to do one do an ocular examination of weirdos and they're not going to detect the weird 316 00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:22,080 so they're letting them in you know I mean it's just a it's just a vicious cycle and but probably 317 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:26,960 they get higher and higher in power and it's just and then they bring their friends and they do this 318 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,600 they do that you know I mean like I mean it's not even just that I mean you're setting a president 319 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:36,720 for other kids right like instead of talking to them instead of like explaining to them and having 320 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:43,200 a dialogue and a conversation which is saying is don't don't do that and so now you're not giving 321 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:47,840 but hear me out hear me out though you're not giving people a context and you're not having 322 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:54,160 an understanding for change requires understanding you can't just say don't do this or don't do that 323 00:28:54,160 --> 00:29:03,600 without context so we grew up together and nobody and we were around mad dudes nobody ever said 324 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:12,320 anything towards like that it was just not even like a part of our vocabulary you know what I mean 325 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:18,320 look what you're saying is true at the same time we've both seen some stuff that make a lot of people 326 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:26,960 get real pale oh yeah now okay we've seen some stuff all right so the way it is now is not the 327 00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:33,040 way it was then and people's tolerance for things have changed um the things that were acceptable 328 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:40,400 then clearly not now and they don't mean and to get off of that sensitive shit right but before we 329 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:45,840 jump off this murder murder if you're not doing murder mook all right in battle rap I can't talk 330 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:54,400 to you okay that's the start so that's my segue I have some other questions and stuff um 331 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:01,200 you got as he pointed out an amazing moveset you're clearly an athletic dude 332 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,200 yeah in your zone is the right word 333 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:13,760 half man half amazing here we go he is I'm not I'm not gonna uh I'm gonna acknowledge MVP for his 334 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:20,560 contribution to this but my question for you is going to be boiled down to this 335 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:26,000 how you've been putting in some work you've been having some downtime so is there something else 336 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,560 that you got in your pocket that you're getting ready to pop off on people something else you 337 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,480 want to show off uh you're getting ready to just like surprise some people with some stuff 338 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:40,400 like yeah where you at with this yeah you're ready to jump out I have a new move and it's 339 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:46,160 crazy the more I sit the more I see my moves being done which is crazy it's crazy but I also 340 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:50,400 think about it too like and I've told friends this too like things are putting on in practice 341 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,960 or things you want to put feelers out there you forget that that eventually there's a point where 342 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:59,280 now you're like even if you aren't popping or whatever like you have a platform where people 343 00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:03,280 are going to see people are going to tag people are going to show you know you should you should 344 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,640 you should get this on for you you'll type you know I mean like and then you think about like 345 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,840 and no one's doing it on purpose you know I'm saying no one steals nothing you know I mean but 346 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:14,800 but um I think that there's uh there's some things that I'm going to do that I'm going to 347 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:20,240 reclaim that are mine and that and that sort of way um and also in that and like an adaptation 348 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:25,440 of style you know I got you know started to think about ways to merge like the Tristan Tye character 349 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:30,000 in the Akira Kwan character to make it one the same for fans for me for promoters for just everything 350 00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:37,120 it's easier it's easier to switch gears that way and it's easier to um I guess um absorb 351 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,520 advice because now you're speaking on one aspect like the same aspect like I can take that everywhere 352 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:46,960 you know and um so one of the things and I'll even you know I mean it's fine no one no one's gonna 353 00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:54,480 no one's gonna copy it because I'll kill um like more uh pressure point manipulation 354 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,320 type aspects and things that I've studied and things that I've done um not like in real life I 355 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:04,080 mean like things that I've practiced you know um no one does that people do joints people do a lot 356 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:09,600 of things but the idea of me being able to legitimately hit spots that would shut your shut 357 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:14,000 your sides of your body off for a little bit and kind of circle my prey as I'm going around because 358 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:20,000 now now you know you're done so and that also that not only saves my leg but it adds the aura of 359 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:25,520 cutting down the size and just being um menace you know yeah straight menace yeah being being 360 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:31,360 being lethal you know I mean so um I'm hoping I'm hoping that um I can really display that um 361 00:32:32,320 --> 00:32:36,800 when I come back because I think it's gonna it's gonna turn some heads I already got some uh some 362 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:44,160 thumbs up from um for some for some reputable names so good shit good shit uh I'm in Texas 363 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:53,520 so I'm really hyped for MLW to come over to Texas um so uh great uh if uh as a total shut 364 00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:59,040 you know you guys come through Texas I'll make that drive Texas as big as fuck be so wherever 365 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,720 you guys show up in Texas you know I'll make that drive I'll I'll be there I'll show up I'll be 366 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:08,880 support you know but listen were you there at the uh war chamber I was not okay because again like 367 00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:13,280 that we're going back to the ignorance of just not knowing my roots as well as I should be you 368 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:18,480 know I'm learning but um like that match like I didn't really digest the magnitude of what that 369 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:26,160 match was until I got until I was like like laid up in bed like I was in a cage surrounded by bar 370 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:31,760 boyer in the sportatorium against the Von Erick's with Kevin Von Erick making his first appearance 371 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:36,960 and who like all he was like in a minute yeah for me like I'm coming out and my first thing is I'm 372 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:41,920 going I'm going what I'm going with low key for about 20 to 25 seconds I get to do what I'm doing 373 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:47,120 and I get to vest them and throw a teaser out there like people wanted to see that like things 374 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:51,120 like that were like he and he gave me a nod after like one of those things where it's like behind the 375 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:55,440 scenes is dope because now you're coming in like everyone knows like well what has he done well 376 00:33:55,440 --> 00:34:00,080 nothing yet well what well who's he work well he kind of just he he's kind of like a year in 377 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:05,840 well what where did he train well he you know you know album Long Island so it was all like well 378 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,920 you got you really got to show me something because there's nothing right now we're starting 379 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:14,720 from you know I'm saying so right off the bat you know I'm hitting him as hard as I came because 380 00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:20,880 now it's just you know I you know it's just one of those do or die type things and thank god it 381 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:26,240 worked out that moment obviously like I want to do it all over again you know Von Erick's 382 00:34:26,240 --> 00:34:31,360 a legit dude they're fucking wrestling royalty they've been in it for a minute look he's legit 383 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,440 he's been in it for a minute I mean you're in good you're in great company dude for real 384 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:41,440 you know watching gotching sheep you know Sam I L just crazy mind one of the I think the best promo 385 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:49,920 person I think in the world we are huge we were like borderline mark for the Iranian super soldier 386 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:54,400 D'varie who's a recent addition to Contra and I haven't gotten to meet him yet but that's so crazy 387 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,560 I popped so hard but I was like yo that's dope because I got the money back in the day too like 388 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:02,240 it was weird it was one of those you know there's some guys you just like fuck with and then like 389 00:35:02,240 --> 00:35:07,120 you just didn't like because like it's stature wise how they're how they're displayed they're not here 390 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,000 you know I mean like I was like that was like hurricane because he always did cool shit and 391 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:15,520 then you meet him and he's dope as hell and then you watch and then you learn about this this world 392 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,920 and the Indians out and you're like yo his mind is different you know those types of wrestlers and 393 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:24,480 the Vargas wrote you know it was one of them so I thought he was cool yeah we we had to put one 394 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:30,080 of our podcast guys in their place for only calling him D'varie and you know we had to check 395 00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,760 him like yo if you ever talk about that guy you got to call him the Iranian super soldier 396 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:41,040 put respect on his name word but um with Joseph's saying well I don't remember the last time I seen 397 00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:49,680 a manager cut promos like him like his whole aggressive like we're gonna do whatever we want 398 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:55,680 to you it just feels perfectly in with guys like you guys like Jacob Fatou you know what I mean like 399 00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:01,760 that whole aggressive vibe it's like everybody's in this perfect pocket and it's just fire so 400 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:06,640 my question because I had a female because I told I was gonna interview you she was like yo you 401 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:13,600 got to ask him is he bringing the corn roll braids back just why I usually I change my hair every 402 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:18,960 match so um the they I mean they'll make appearance one way or another I don't know 403 00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:23,840 that one I'm gonna do something though I'm gonna do something it's been a it's been a minute though 404 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:31,120 they're gonna hurt so bad listen people don't know if you guys straight if you ever have braids 405 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:35,520 how hard they got a pull to keep them from my head and it's pinched straight too so like you'll 406 00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:39,440 if they if they braid it and they don't tie it up right away it's gonna be there it's gonna look 407 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:46,560 like it just it comes undone like yeah yeah thanks I mean so um yeah when you can you can feel like 408 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:52,000 the the pull and tuck on your face you just like and I'm happy I'm happy to the MLW the staff like 409 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:56,960 they they that they that they um that they rock with it because I uh my mom and my mom and my 410 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,840 friends they're asked like you're gonna braid your hair like what if they don't let you I was 411 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:02,720 like I'm going with a braided I was like because they're gonna take it out themselves because 412 00:37:02,720 --> 00:37:08,720 I'm going there I'm you know at whole you see all those documentaries you hear podcasts you shoot 413 00:37:08,720 --> 00:37:14,400 interviews and the one consistent thing is like ask for forgiveness not permission I'm going with 414 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:19,040 my hair braid so I'm gonna say I'm gonna say sorry if you don't like it but they let me keep it 415 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:24,720 forgiveness before permission absolutely again just to make myself even more like the whole 416 00:37:24,720 --> 00:37:29,920 in composite what I'm coming back from like it's my new like moniker you could say the exception 417 00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:34,080 doing a lot of thinking about a lot of things that have been going on in the world and wrestling 418 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:39,280 my career all that I've been the exception to all of it in terms of just like trying to typecast me 419 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:46,960 as as this like I'm the exception of that you can't just be gone be injured and then come 420 00:37:46,960 --> 00:37:53,440 maybe not most people the exception that's not even a cocky it's a responsibility now 421 00:37:54,720 --> 00:38:00,320 of like if people are really gonna get not even like give it give a metaphorical torch but just 422 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:06,080 a platform that people understand like just from from all areas like I'm gonna represent what you 423 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:10,880 can if you need me to talk to these kids I can't if you need me to talk to these mothers I can't 424 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,080 if you need to talk to these dads you need to talk to these these corporates if you need to talk to 425 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:18,800 the boys if you need me to talk to you know I'm saying like I just I know I know how I know how 426 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:22,480 to talk to I know how to talk to female I'm engaged I know how to talk to females in a respectful 427 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:26,960 way you know I'm saying I know how to respect my woman and and not look like a dickhead you know 428 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:31,680 I mean like I know how to talk to kids and make sure that they don't see me smoking I don't care 429 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:35,760 if I don't care if they're smoking over here because that because maybe that boy's mom had a 430 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:40,880 really good time seeing me she's that she's a CEO she's somewhere of like some NBC corporate and she 431 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,880 wants to offer me a job at some show which wants to be a pitch some idea but she's seeing me with 432 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,720 a blunt in my hand I know that there's cat I know I know what's up like a lot of people they're 433 00:38:48,720 --> 00:38:54,720 trying they don't want to they don't think outside of what's going on so I think being in that spot 434 00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:59,600 now I put my friends on you know me and then not only do I put them on in those aspects of like 435 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,440 always being aware of your surroundings who's there make sure don't look like a bump because you 436 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:08,640 don't know who

00:39:54,720 --> 00:39:58,800 didn't even think about before now I'm tapping in these conversations these locker rooms for people 448 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:02,560 are not only talking about their own matches they're talking about the rest of the car they're 449 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,000 talking about future cards they're talking about working out they're talking about diets they're 450

they're like things like that were like there's a there's 452 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:19,760 levels of productivity environment and then recognizing when you've got to change it so 453 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:25,040 now my boys coming up with me my friends I make sure that they don't have to be around that and 454 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:29,440 if they are around it they know how to delegate to where they know what's worth it and what's not 455 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:34,960 exactly and then they through the through the the relationship that they make that web continues 456 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:39,920 now they can put people on and then it's just the way I'm not telling anybody that I talked to 457 00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,840 I'm not giving you or like people bring me in and talk to classes or talk to my friends like I don't 458 00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:48,320 know anything more than than what anybody's told me I know how to feel throughout bullshit I know 459 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:52,240 who's who's saying the right things so if you hear anything from me I'm gonna if you want my 460 00:40:52,240 --> 00:40:56,320 personal opinion make sure you ask for it and I'm gonna tell you that it is that if you want advice 461 00:40:56,320 --> 00:41:00,800 I'm gonna tell you what the what the what the names told me and that's just how it you know me like 462 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:06,480 what the OG said because that's that's how it is and that listen knowledge is the key to success 463 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:12,000 man like that's it mantra you got we've been chewing his ear over you got any more questions 464 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:17,200 man for days I could talk to this cat he's cool dude but I'm listening Sunday night I'm not trying 465 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:21,680 to kill his night here no no no this no listen I chose eight on purpose in case you want me to 466 00:41:21,680 --> 00:41:26,560 talk about whatever but this is this is fun this is fun oh that's what's up because like like like 467 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:34,240 once again like I love I target people that I feel like they have a story that I want to hear or 468 00:41:34,240 --> 00:41:39,280 that the next independent wrestling kid that wants to come into this business that they should hear 469 00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:44,160 like and I feel like and I'm not trying to make it all street and nothing like that but it's kind 470 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:48,880 of what I know so the kids that are from where I'm from where you from where my child's from 471 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:54,400 is like I want to show them a blueprint from guys like you who you know bust their ass to make it 472 00:41:54,400 --> 00:42:01,520 into this industry and how hard it is so like what advice would you have for that next kid trying to 473 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:10,320 get involved and take that step to it I mean if if if the grinds right the mind's right like honestly 474 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:16,720 and it and it goes with being better than yesterday every day I say that all the time all the time 475 00:42:16,720 --> 00:42:21,200 like if you if you didn't if you didn't make your bed yesterday make your bed today and you 476 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:25,520 already started the day better you're already a better person like automatically you're automatically 477 00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:29,200 elevated now what else can we work on what else can we improve you know I'm saying like the more 478 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:35,200 you you have that that that self-awareness that that that outer speech is what we call it where 479 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:40,320 you can speak from the inner all the time like there's no there's no nothing's changing around you 480 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:44,560 that's what I say like to these kids that I that you know that I work with through through social 481 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:48,720 working things like that it's you don't have to stop being gangster like that's not that's not it 482 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,920 exactly like that you don't have to stop being you you have those instincts no one's get no one's 483 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:58,480 gonna tell you like like popping off that's an that's an instinct that's not a that's not even a 484 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:02,080 skill set that's a that's an instinct some people just don't have it I know some of the hardest people 485 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:07,200 in the world that think first and act second some people just pop off there are very weak people 486 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:12,720 that pop off it's just it's what it is but when you have that outer speech when you when you speak 487 00:43:12,720 --> 00:43:17,920 when you when you are in control of your actions at all times lifeguards drown it happens how could 488 00:43:17,920 --> 00:43:21,520 a lifeguard drown because in the moment doesn't matter anybody's everybody's chill when they're 489 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:26,160 chill exactly but when that water gets high it's different you know I'm saying so it's about it's 490 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:31,440 about always understanding when the water's getting high and and living and living in that and knowing 491 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:36,400 that that's okay because things will pass but again it takes repetition it takes self it takes 492 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:41,760 self-awareness and then self-humility to know like what you're doing what you're doing at the time 493 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:46,400 is it is it good for you it's bad for you do you want this more than whatever goal you're setting 494 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,920 and is it going towards that because if you're me if you're cool with that it's my birthday I'm 495 00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:54,400 having this cake I want abs I want this cake though it's my birthday if you if you if you okay if 496 00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:59,360 you're good then your it's life be good we got one shot of this have that cake you know I'm saying 497 00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:04,160 but if you deep down know that you want those abs more than you want that cake and it is your 498 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:09,040 birthday and you and you know I'm saying and you push that cake to the side like that says something 499 00:44:09,040 --> 00:44:12,960 about your character that says something about about you same same person that ate the cake it 500 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:16,320 says something about your character not in a negative way but it just shows how comfortable 501 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:20,080 you are with you and your decisions because you can't lie to yourself you know I'm saying thanks 502 00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:26,560 and that's so that's you know not to my bad he gave me kind of like a clearance to ask a few more 503 00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:33,120 questions um is there any is any is there any message you want to leave wait wait wait wait 504 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:38,320 wait no I got a question I got a question hold on he said I can ask whatever all right here we go 505 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:42,400 no no no I'm not asking nothing crazy because he mentioned that his mom says she didn't want him 506 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:48,640 wrestling so the first time she seen you just say like on that mlw status like what was her reaction 507 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:56,320 to oh my baby made it it's it's a it's a it's a it's a kind of surreal thing for her just because 508 00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:04,960 like I really try to extend that to the family like in that way yeah I mean I brought my mom a lot 509 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:12,080 of pain you know I mean so like being able to to show her behind closed doors that things change 510 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:16,400 that things get better things elevate things you know I mean like things come to fruition when you 511 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:23,120 put it in action and then knowing that this was the goal from like the start start to see to her 512 00:45:23,120 --> 00:45:30,160 to pick up a remote and click it on and it's not the news it's not yeah yeah yeah I'm saying like 513 00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:33,760 things that she would have beaten her head about what she could worry about about dumb stuff and 514 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:37,520 just think that because she knew the potential she knew that she knew I'm supposed to click on the 515 00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:43,760 TV my baby's on like that she knows that yeah her to go boom see it it's like okay like that's 516 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:49,440 that's what I'm talking about that's what the fight was insane right so it's kind of like it's a 517 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:55,760 it's definitely like a it's a cool moment because it's a promise that I wanted to make but then 518 00:45:55,760 --> 00:46:00,640 you want to take into like maturing and all that aspect being adopted and me wanting to get back 519 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:05,280 in a weird way of like this was the right decision all like this was fate yeah lives are gonna be 520 00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:10,080 better because you made this decision my birth parents their lives are gonna it's gonna all because 521 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:14,400 like it's always there's always something more and again back to the back to the kids back to my 522 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:19,200 peers like there's always more I've seen five minutes of aggression turned into five years 523 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:24,320 you know I'm saying I've seen five seconds of a split decision turned to death you know I'm saying 524 00:46:24,320 --> 00:46:31,360 so like here's your so we're talking like time is is for real taking one second to save you 10 525 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:37,200 years to think about something you have power just power in that when you can you can look you can 526 00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,920 control time people forget that you can literally control time that's not the weed talking that's 527 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:48,080 just then that's just that's just real life it is it is so it is you know it is it is what you 528 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:54,960 make of it and we're trying we're trying to do the best we can you know this is why I gotta ask 529 00:46:54,960 --> 00:47:04,640 that question I had to ask it so so do you got anything else before I ask another question 530 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:09,520 like something pressing that pressing you that you want to get off each other no like listen 531 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:13,040 he's got a beautiful lady they're a great couple they look absolutely amazing I've been with my 532 00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:19,680 wife about to be 22 years so you know I'm saying like I get it now is there a if

00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,640 or something so I was like that that was like the first thing I got a guy cracked this code first 540 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:06,480 before I try to pass on man what kind of what kind of wingman is that bro what happened man 541 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:10,400 it all broke down when I know when I got in the car because he was picking me up in school from 542 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:14,560 college from school got in his car he was like he's like he's like did you talk to that chick you were 543 00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:24,080 saying I was like yeah I was like yeah she's

00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:34,160 God bless man God bless yeah but then you know and that's when and that's when she kind of turned 546 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:38,800 around right like when you start to when you stop thinking in terms of I and start having to think 547 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:45,120 in terms of we that shit changes a lot of you know a lot of things like a lot I've heard that when 548

that was the that was the thing where it was like damn 550 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:59,760 like there's there's again there's more to decisions there's more to feeling bad for yourself there's 551 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:04,160 more than to you know I'm saying like trying to just like get fast money or trying to just like 552 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:09,520 put your head down and like try to just

topic changing rapidly type shit no one gives a f*** about ALS 582 00:51:43,120 --> 00:51:48,160 right now who's because no one's done some sh** on their head you know I'm saying like it's we live in 583 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:52,320 moments yeah you know I'm saying like which is a beautiful thing but we got to remember that 584 00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:56,400 moments are moments but they're in they're spaced out there's a long string there in between those 585 00:51:56,400 --> 00:52:02,800 moments that needs to have action in between so you know stop you know we need to have more 586 00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:07,520 more empathy and start thinking in terms of we like you're saying and it's easier said than done 587 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:12,960 yeah I mean all right yeah brother but if you're gonna just come back you might and you can't so 588 00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:18,480 hey look uh when you come through Texas let me know I'll make that drive like I said I'll drop it 589 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:25,520 come on through um and let's not stunt like they don't be in Orlando so once the live taping has 590 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:31,360 come back and everything else my ass lives like 30 minutes from Orlando now so I'll definitely be up 591 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:39,600 in there um I'm sure I attend Philadelphia man MLW coming back so it's it's super super great man 592 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:44,960 it's what one of the guys we podcast he was gonna go out there and it's already sold out from his 593 00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:50,640 tickets or whatever he was saying crazy so I was like and we decided to use the vice tv you know 594 00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:56,720 I'm saying like it's just again elevation and good leadership promotes even better workers you 595 00:52:56,720 --> 00:53:01,440 know I'm saying so we have we have the staff doing what they're supposed to be doing taking care as 596 00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:05,760 soon as as soon as I texted them that I was hurt first thing it says is don't worry about anything 597 00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:12,160 get better that's crazy that's what's up man um you know I'm saying I'm nobody in the grand scheme 598 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:17,680 you know I'm saying like I came in with no history I've had 55 matches I write them down I've had 55 599 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:25,680 matches in my life that's stupid that's a that's a that's a season for some people my life 55 600 00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:29,600 because I know it's I know it's who you've thought not that how many it's who you thought I'm saying 601 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:35,280 I'm exactly saying I'm not bumping for nobody but at the same time like there's a lot that I that I 602 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:40,080 missed a lot that I didn't get to show in because again paying your dues I believe subjective a lot 603 00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:44,640 of people think it's more I think it's subjective you know building rings being a bitch getting 604 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:49,840 caught picking up I don't I don't do that you know I did that when I was a young I'm sorry I 605 00:53:49,840 --> 00:53:54,240 I did that not in wrestling you know I'm saying I was yeah I did errands when I was young you know 606 00:53:54,240 --> 00:53:59,440 when I was you know so like I don't do that anymore but again that's again it's subjective of how 607 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:03,680 you're gonna gauge respect and and and engage how you're gonna carry yourself are you gonna do it 608 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:07,760 disrespectfully or you need to do it respectfully of yourself and your peers and things like that 609 00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:14,240 so I make sure that there's that there's a distinct difference of levels and how um and how I treat 610 00:54:14,240 --> 00:54:18,720 you know my co-workers you know the business and how I and how I expect to be treated you know in 611 00:54:18,720 --> 00:54:24,560 return and um again and then running into people like you where it's like we're complete strangers 612 00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:29,600 and had an out long conversation without a stumble or stutter because it was just real connecting 613 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:34,560 and that's what I want it's not that hard to to connect you know it's meant to happen when you 614 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,000 when you're in this world you're gonna find the people that are gonna gravitate towards your likeness 615 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:42,640 and it's just it's just great and I have asked you guys a question how was your day
