When I was in 6th grade I had a wrestling match that i will be happy to remember until the day I die. It was my last year of swarm wrestling and was the first year our wrestling team had a shot to make it to state. We had a stacked lineup from 45 pounds to heavyweight and we battled our way to the state tournament. We were the first Big Lake swarm team to make it to state. In the first round we wrestled Goodhue, and we wrestled strong and hard against them and were able to come away with the…

I separate my life into two parts: before professional wrestling and after professional wrestling. It sounds ridiculous but professional wrestling has made me the person I am today. I started watching wrestling when I was about nine years old. Before that time and up to that time, I had no friends. Literally, no one I knew I would have considered a friend.

The kids I were wrestling felt stronger, were harder to take down, and I struggled with my…

Pro Wrestler Do you remember watching wrestling as a kid? Ever since I was a little kid I was all ways hooked on watching wrestling. I remember watching my favorite wrestler of all time Edge. I remembered as a kid all ways watching Edge and cheering for him I always liked "heels" more. If you don’t know what a heel is, it’s a "bad" guy in wrestling. But just being 5 or so, I knew nothing about the wrestling business just that they were fighting and wanted the championship. But now I now that…
