that the new guys come to and pick my brain, for useful information, on
how to make themselves better. I want to be the wrestler that entertains

remembers as being something special in the ring. I want my love, for
what I do, to exude from my pores and touch the audience personally.
This is my childhood dream. I want the crowd to be able to feel that
love, every time I step between the ropes!
