Man I look at life these days with deep gratitude, humility and a little grace - thankful for those dreams that didn’t come true. 

That’s the irony of life sometimes where the thing we want most - is sometimes it’s the best thing that never happened. 

I failed at becoming an NFL player. 

And as complicated as my relationship was with my old man, he was the one who eventually trained me to become a pro wrestler. 

And the rest is history. 

My dad would’ve turned 77 years old this coming week. 

Rest In Peace Soulman and cheers to those dreams that don’t come true.
