I always played hockey, I was always a hockey fan, but I was never bitten by the hockey bug... I never looked into playing it professionally.
Don't you touch me again. I will knock you out, junior!
I remember when I was a kid that the only way to see Hulk Hogan wrestle was you'd have to go to the live shows. He was never on TV. So I thought "Why not do the same thing?"
The only rumors worth listening to have Stevie Nicks on vocals.
Live events are notorious for being pressure free. Stress free. It's all about just doing the match. Doing what you feel.
You can't come back to TV for two months. It's too short. You can't start anything. It's too much of a tease and there's really nowhere you can go.
There's no limit to what you can accomplish in the world of entertainment. It's all I've ever known since I was 19.
I've never been the type of person to stick with the same thing or be complacent or rest on my laurels.
