Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it. What's going on everybody. How are you doing? I'm doing good, man. Blessed to be here. Former South Carolina game, Cockwire receiver. Yes, sir. Shout to the crib, man. Former from the Huffington University, sir. I didn't know about the Hampton thing, that's true? It is, it is. Wow. I went to Hampton my first two years and I transferred it back to the crib.

That's interesting.

So how did you get in a wrestler, man?

How did this wrestling thing come about? Because you started with football. So how did you get in the wrestling? Right, man. It was an accident. So like you said, I started at Hampton University, transferred to South Carolina. that had a brief stint with the Philadelphia Eagles where I went to camp.

And then, long story short, I got cut from the Philadelphia Eagles

and trying to figure out

what was next for my life.

I had an agent who actually got me trying to give me some more trials and everything, then

got me hooked up with the XFL.

I think it was just a blessing because I never played for the XFL.

As soon as they sent my information there,

WWE reached out to me and said, are you interested in coming in for a tryout? So they reached out to you. So do you have wrestling background or did you ever do anything with wrestling? Never wrestled in my life. I was a fan, you know, at three years old, I opened a can of whoop ass, watching Stonecold Steve Austin. So, like, I was always a fan.

I watched it,

but I never thought about actually wrestling.

Like, just didn't know it was an opportunity. So then you had to learn how to wrestle, right? Because it's not just one of the other thing, you can just go slap somebody, just open up a can of whoop ass. So when they reached out to you, Was it a training process?

It was a program.
