For all y'all that know that watch a documentary with me coming up from the streets, selling drugs, doing this and doing that, and my perception, I wanted to be this big rap star. I want to be known as the biggest rap star, I lived by that, that was the only thing I was going to do. I wasn't doing nothing else.'
'You can spin wheels, spin wheels, spin wheels. You ain't paying the bills, things just ain't happening.
So me grabbing the moment was me going a different route to get to where I wanted to. When I met Jack Crockett in the halfway house and he presented professional wrestling to me, I was aware of wrestling. I've seen it on TV, Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, I've seen that, but it still was new to me. So I grabbed that moment to like, you know what? This ain't working for me. I got to try this right here out. And I just seized that.'
