Summary
Big Bill talks had an unexpected stare down with actor Ken Jeong (aka Mr. Chow from The Hangover) at AEW: Dynamite in Los Angeles. He shares that story along with his journey to AEW including his first meetings with Tony Khan, MJF and Wardlow. He speaks to tagging with Lee Moriarty and working with Stokely Hathaway and The Firm. Bill also candidly details his struggle with anxiety and depression, and his path to sobriety, and the role that Diamond Dallas Page has played in helping him share his story. Plus, Bill recalls what it was like to return to wrestling during the pandemic, working a ladder match with the Hardy Boys, the advice that Chris Jericho gave him upon his return to wrestling, the 5-second rule that keeps him going, and his recent engagement to Lexy Nair.
