Part two is underway. 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:05,920 Speaker 1: When you decided to say, you know what, I'm gonna 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: give this acting thing a try. Because Rock Wressell then 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: went to acting steal wrestle's periodically here and there. Bautista 5 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: did the same thing. Batista now he mainly just does acting, 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 1: and even Roman Raines he's followed in Europe. So what 7 00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,720 Speaker 1: did you have conversations with Rock? Did you have conversations 8 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:23,280 Speaker 1: with Batista? 9 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:25,280 Speaker 2: I did, But I think our pastor are different, Okay. 10 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:29,639 Speaker 2: I think especially with Dwayne he did WWE and said 11 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,520 Speaker 2: I want to do act, okay. I think with Bautista 12 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 2: he also said I now want to do act. 13 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 3: Okay. 14 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 2: I got a chance to do act okay. And I 15 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: got a chance early in my career. Two thousand and 16 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 2: four was my first movie and it didn't go so well, 17 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 2: and then I did a bunch of bad movies. But 18 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: I got those chances because the WWE was opening a 19 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 2: studio right again, if life cracks, the door open, see 20 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 2: what's behind. 21 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 3: Yes. 22 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 2: So my boss was like, hey, you got to go 23 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 2: to Australia to make this movie? Why because we were 24 00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: gonna do it with stone col and he backed out 25 00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: when we film in a week, Get down there, Okay, 26 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,960 Speaker 2: let's go. That got me kind of run out of 27 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 2: the movie business in two thousand and nine, and then 28 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: in the early like twenty ten, eleven twelve, I was 29 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,479 Speaker 2: approached with very small roles and I had been playing 30 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 2: the same character on TV. Not that I was bored, 31 00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 2: but this was a chance to be like, Hey, do 32 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 2: you want to make fun of yourself or do you 33 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 2: want to be part of this movie where you can 34 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 2: dress up as a different character and do different stuff. 35 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: So I didn't say I was going to go act. 36 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 2: I just merely said, yo, there's an opportunity in front 37 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 2: of me that i'd like to do. I know why 38 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: I fucked up in the past because I wanted to 39 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: be in the ring when I should have wanted to 40 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: be on set. Right, let's give this thing a try. 41 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 2: And when you give it a try, give it a try. 42 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: Respect the process, respect the long days, respect the multiple takes. 43 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 2: It's not live entertainment. There's not ten thousand people scream 44 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: in your name. Do this for this and do it 45 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: the best you can, and that's when things start. Good work, 46 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: I'm a firm believer in good work will get you 47 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 2: another opportunities somewhere right, and that started to happen. 48 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: What's the hardest part about auditioning? Failing? 49 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 2: It is the thing and and a lot of a 50 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: lot of the audition process they're just looking. A lot 51 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,919 Speaker 2: of it is aesthetic. You know, you see a character 52 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 2: in your mind when you read the book, and if 53 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: the person walks in and they're the spitting image of 54 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 2: that character, man, they got a good chance. Anyone can 55 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: be coachable. If I'm a director, I want to think 56 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 2: if I'm your head coach and I see you and 57 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 2: I'm like, man, I think we're good coaching. I think 58 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 2: we can help this talent. It's a lot. That's a 59 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 2: lot of the audition process. So the shitty thing is 60 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 2: failing a lot like it is a business of rejection. 61 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,839 Speaker 2: In baseball, you get to hit three out of ten times, 62 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: you make the Hall of Fame. Yeah, that's an f audition. 63 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 2: It's like god, if you land one out of one hundred. 64 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 2: For some it's one out of a thousand. Like you, 65 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 2: you just get rejected all the time and you're basically 66 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: being told you're not gonna and they kind of don't 67 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 2: tell you why. It's just you didn't get the gig. 68 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 2: So if you know you need to work on your 69 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 2: speed easy, I'll practice that. I'll get better at that. 70 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 3: But just tell me that. So you're not fast enough, Yeah, 71 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 3: you don't get young. You'll get anything. You just don't 72 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:12,400 Speaker 3: get the. 73 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 1: Start your routes. You need to work with your route. 74 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:15,520 Speaker 1: So then you need to be able to get on 75 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: the edge. You need to get scanny. So well you say, nah, 76 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 1: you know, you don't know what to practice. You know, 77 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: it's it's just tough.

Let's say the roles are reverse. 338 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 3: You want a billion. 339 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:20,600 Speaker 2: Dollars, I think finding finding someone with a special set 340 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 2: of skills. 341 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 3: I I don't. 342 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: But then again I don't know, right, because if you 343 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: have someone who has is so skilled in the arts 344 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 2: of stealth, espionage, disposing of problems, maybe at the final minute, 345 00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, I get the ticket, it 346 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 2: would it would have to be someone that doesn't have 347 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 2: a lottery ticket. If you can't play, you can't win. 348 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 2: So they don't have a ticket, and they would have 349 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 2: that special set of skills. And I don't know who 350 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 2: that would be. 351 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 1: The owning your own name ww still currently owns that. 352 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: And they get a piece of any project that you're 353 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: part of. Sure you're okay with that? So do you 354 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: like one day? Because remember they just gave DJ Dwayne Johnathan, 355 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 1: they just gave him the rock he had that. 356 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 3: Now, yep, do you want that? You want that bestowed? 357 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 3: You know? 358 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 2: So when you say that, like I believe, context is 359 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 2: the is very important in conversations. The WWE fair is 360 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 2: an understatement. Generous would be a better scenario. I have 361 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 2: such a trustworthy relationship with them over two decades. Correct, 362 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 2: I have a champion of the brand. I love the company. 363 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:32,640 Speaker 2: It is my home. They are my family. Even after 364 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:35,879 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, I've already signed an extension to remain 365 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 2: a member of the WW family for the near, mid 366 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,399 Speaker 2: and long term future. Gotcha, I don't think there'll be 367 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,119 Speaker 2: a beat of my heart where WW blood doesn't come 368 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 2: out of that said, Without them, I don't exist. And 369 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 2: I fell into a weird scenario where we're for a 370 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 2: hot second, people were using their real names. Nowadays people 371 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 2: have real sounding names, but it's not their real name, 372 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 2: so they can own their real names. Fell into a 373 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 2: weird scenario, and WW recognizes that they're very focused on 374 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 2: intellectual property, as they should be. If I make a 375 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 2: song and somebody wants to use the time as now 376 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 2: on their commercial and they just steal it, well, that's 377 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 2: not exactly fair. Is a huge conversation in the movie 378 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: business about artificial intelligence. If someone scans me, takes my 379 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,639 Speaker 2: face and makes two hundred movies in their own accord 380 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 2: without giving me anything, I don't know how fair that is. 381 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 2: So in the vision of fairness. Whenever the WWIP is approached, 382 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 2: they have to be cut in on the deal. And 383 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 2: that's not them going, that's me going, hey, I'm doing this. 384 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 2: Let's work out the business. A wise man once said 385 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 2: to me, making money is the toughest part, dividing it. 386 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 2: That's easy. Making it's real tough. So I always operated 387 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 2: under that construct. Ww has been and this since the 388 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: start of my contract. They've never tried to change my name, 389 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 2: even when they realized they made a misas think like, 390 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 2: they never tried to alter my being or character. They've 391 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,879 Speaker 2: always given me freedom to who I want because we 392 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 2: trust each other. I'm not out to try to rob 393 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 2: them of what they've earned. And again they're not out 394 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 2: to try to take what's not theirs. Everybody wants to 395 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 2: play fair. And when I say fair, ww's terms are generous. 396 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 3: You've been in the stock market, you like the investment. 397 00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: So what was some of the best advice that you've 398 00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: received in some of the best advice that you've given 399 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 1: people to help them be able to do what you've done? 400 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 2: John all over the map, But I love this, This 401 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,119 Speaker 2: is great, it's great. 402 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,159 Speaker 3: Don't spend beyond your means okay, I think that is 403 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 3: important to Is that easier saying than done? 404 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, because of because of a lot of things. 405 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,719 Speaker 2: But I'll trim it, make it easy. Don't spend what 406 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: you don't have, and try to spend less than you 407 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 2: have so you can save a little bit. Don't carry 408 00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 2: because and I know there that's not a universal thing, 409 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 2: because there are many people who would advocate when the 410 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 2: percentage of debt is low, carrying debt's good because I 411 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 2: can beat the percentage in other investments. I'm just afraid 412 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 2: one day they're going to call the margin and I 413 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:16,200 Speaker 2: don't have the money. So I tend to not want 414 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 2: to owe anyone anything. That way, all tabs are square 415 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 2: at the end of the business day. Don't spend more 416 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 2: than you have, don't carry, don't carry any bad debt, 417 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 2: and be accountable. I think that's and know who you are. 418 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 2: If you're someone who wants to get rich quick, there's 419 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 2: nothing wrong with that. Understand the math behind that. Talk 420 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 2: to a venture capitalists and tell them, ask them how 421 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 2: many of their assets fail. A venture capitalists will invest 422 00:20:46,880 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 2: in four hundred companies opening one survives from one. So 423 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 2: if you're at home with your hundred bucks and you 424 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 2: want to get rich quick. You got to take that 425 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 2: hundred bucks somehow, bet on four hundred companies and hope 426 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 2: one hits. And if you push it all into one 427 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:05,679 Speaker 2: you are locked into that hook line and sinker. So 428 00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 2: I think, know who you are as an investor, dude, 429 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 2: I try to be safe. My stuff is the most 430 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: unsexy shit you'll ever talk about it. And people always 431 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 2: are like, man, this thing's gonna smoke. It's gonna be great, 432 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 2: good for you. And I'm also okay with the success 433 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: of others. 434 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 3: You can go with tb os huh man, this I 435 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 3: like this club. Can I get one of those fancy lockers here? 436 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 3: This is good? 437 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,880 Speaker 2: So know who you are. Yeah, And I think keeping 438 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 2: up with the person next to you is a bad idea. 439 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 2: Just always try to have a good balance sheet. Look 440 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 2: at your books, look at where you want to be, 441 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 2: and look at like look at what you spend, what 442 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,400 Speaker 2: you earn, look what you spend it on. I think 443 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,639 Speaker 2: getting out of the habit of spending more than you 444 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 2: make that right there, changes the dynamic a better thing. 445 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: If you have enough money to begin saving money, holy shit, 446 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 2: you are beating the game. If you have no debt 447 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 2: and can put money away. 448 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:02,479 Speaker 3: You're ahead. 449 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: What's John's best purchase and his worst purchase? Worst purchase? Man, 450 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: I made a ton of bad purchases. Bad purchases would 451 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: have to be cars, A lot of a lot of 452 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: bad cars. I have lost so much money on cars. 453 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 1: And that's another thing. Be okay with your failures. I 454 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: love cars. It's a passion. I don't do it to 455 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,159 Speaker 1: make money, so I lose money because it's a passion. 456 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: I bought I remember when I started making money. My 457 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: worst purchase is a because I didn't want to spring 458 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 1: for Lamborghini, so I bought a fake one. 459 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 3: Oh my god, how do you buy a fake Lambo? 460 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,199 Speaker 3: I found a way to do it. So we had 461 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 3: a lambou body with a board Injinese. 462 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 2: At BMWV twelve and I was like, yeah, it's gonna 463 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 2: I was a young This is like two thousand, this 464 00:22:56,600 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 2: is two thousand and three. I found a company it 465 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 2: would do it that put a V twelve in it. 466 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 2: I'm like, man, it's the same thing. It looks pretty good, 467 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 2: like it looks great. Yeah, I'll buy it. They tried 468 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 2: to stiff me out of the car. I had to 469 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 2: ask some friends who knew how to find things to 470 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 2: go and find things. I then had to get a 471 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 2: title for the car, of which I did. The car 472 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 2: finally shows up after two years from me of waiting. 473 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't go into gear. The motor is held together 474 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,640 Speaker 2: with the timing of two Chevy V six's, so everything's confused. 475 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,399 Speaker 2: Nothing runs. The car is not roadworthy, so I sent 476 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: it to a shop. This is two thousand and five. 477 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 2: I just got the keys to that car a week ago. 478 00:23:37,359 --> 00:23:41,360 Speaker 2: What a week ago? I've sent it to ten shops. 479 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:44,479 Speaker 2: I finally found somebody to do it. They did it 480 00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:50,639 Speaker 2: tip to tail, and I will tell you it looks great. 481 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 2: But I honestly, honestly say, I have the cost, and 482 00:23:56,560 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 2: the collectible Lamborghini market is thriving. I have the cost 483 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 2: of about a real roadster and a half into this 484 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: kit car. 485 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 3: You could have just bought a brand new one. 486 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 2: I could have brought two sawed one in half and 487 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 2: this one and a half car. 488 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 3: So to be like, yeah, this is it, this is yeah. 489 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 2: But that was a lesson to be like, hey, if 490 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 2: you take shortcuts, you're gonna get what you pay for. 491 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 2: So that was my takeaway from that, and also like, 492 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 2: I don't regret it because I have a takeaway. And 493 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 2: in the process, I've met a whole lot of shady 494 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 2: shop owners, which are great, which allows me to feel 495 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 2: good about a good shop owner when I meet a 496 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 2: good mechanic and someone who can do honest work. So 497 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 2: there's a lot of good takeaways from that. But as 498 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,399 Speaker 2: far as like statistics, boy, I got my ass whipped 499 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 2: on that best purchase shit. 500 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 3: My wife's engagement she said, yes, we don't get to 501 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 3: that one too. Fame. 502 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 1: How have you been able to deal with fame? Because 503 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: you're known, your global you'll known the world over and 504 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 1: sometime when you out with your wife you just want 505 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: to have a nice quiet evening. 506 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 3: You don't get very many of those. And then John, 507 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 3: can I get a picture of John? Can I sign it? 508 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,240 Speaker 3: Can you sign an autograph? Hey?

It's not anniversary? 511 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:14,919 Speaker 3: How do you deal with that? 512 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 2: So that's been a journey, and man, my wife is 513 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 2: tremendous with that because she understands it. And again I 514 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,119 Speaker 2: just talked about the kit. You buy a kit, you 515 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 2: get a kit not a real one. Find out what 516 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 2: you want. If what I want is privacy, don't go out, 517 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,440 Speaker 2: stay in. And if you want to go out, guess 518 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 2: what All this fun work that you get to do. 519 00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 2: A lot of that job is public service and public relations. 520 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 2: And these people aren't coming up to me and like, yo, 521 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 2: I want to fight you. No one's really coming up 522 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,879 Speaker 2: being like I fucking hate everybody was like yo, I 523 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 2: just want to say hire their candor. Sometimes might be 524 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 2: a little it's not not what I would see is, 525 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 2: but I don't blame them, So I try not to 526 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 2: blame them. 527 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 3: Now. 528 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 2: I'm not perfect sometimes if I'm especially when I'm going 529 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 2: for a morning coffee, I need the coffee before I 530 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 2: can go, hey, what's up. But I also know that 531 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 2: when I leave the house for coffee, I'm leaving the house. 532 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: It's part of the work. And in wrestling travel jeez, 533 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 2: I wish every game was a home game. Yes, the 534 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 2: travel in sports is tough, yes, but it's part of 535 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 2: the work. This is part of the work. And you 536 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 2: know what I get to do for my job dress up, 537 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 2: So like dress up and be imaginative. It's not that 538 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 2: those moments are hard, and it's not that, and I 539 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 2: think overall people are aware. I'm sorry to interrupt you. 540 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,160 Speaker 2: They know what's going on, right, but damn it, they're 541 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: shooting their shop. Life just gave them an opportunity. 542 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:53,560 Speaker 3: They're taking it, probably never going to see Johnslena Gain. 543 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,719 Speaker 2: I would like to hope that if there's ever been 544 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 2: an interaction where somebody walks away gnarly from our interaction, 545 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 2: they understand that maybe, like, wasn't a good time to 546 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:03,360 Speaker 2: take that opportunity. 547 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 3: We're all human. 548 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 2: But I also would like to think that I got 549 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 2: more good interactions than bad ones, because I really try 550 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: to be conscious of First of all, I would be 551 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 2: nowhere without that person, correct. And I'll go to places 552 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 2: and people are like, yo, do you want me to 553 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: stop people from coming over? I'm like, they're the reason 554 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 2: I can sit here, so no, because man, let's let's 555 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,760 Speaker 2: get everybody. I'll say hi to eighty people and then 556 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 2: we can all go about our meal and everything's fine. 557 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 2: But normally people are respectful, they're excited, you know, and 558 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,919 Speaker 2: it only takes a few seconds. The biggest thing is 559 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 2: like I'm going to the bathroom. 560 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,400 Speaker 3: That's tough. Yeah, yeah, we ain't shaking no hand don't 561 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 3: be daffing. Stop on a talking too. But again, people 562 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 3: don't know, so I literally what you mean? You don't know? 563 00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: You ain't supposed to talk nobody in the bathroom. 564 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 2: No, man, I know, So I'll I'll take a second. 565 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,320 Speaker 2: I used to be real confrontational, but now I'll take 566 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: a second. As the business is going on, be like, 567 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 2: you do realize where we are? 568 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 3: Right? 569 00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 2: No, you're in a bathroom. There's other people. We're all 570 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 2: doing unspeakable things. Yeah, I'm good, but can we do 571 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: that outside? 572 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 3: Oh? Man, I'm sorry. I didn't know the figurea hey man? 573 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 3: Oh no, how you gonna reach? 574 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 2: Because sometimes you get lost in the moment and a 575 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 2: lot of times it's like, oh, he's finally private, he's 576 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 2: at a time where I can approach him when it's 577 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 2: the worst time that And if I got to be somewhere, 578 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 2: like a lot of times on set, they're calling me 579 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 2: into work. Those days are expensive. I'll shake as many 580 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 2: hands as I can after they call cut because people 581 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 2: will come to these locations and it's great. But if 582 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 2: I got to go, I gotta go because the days 583 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 2: are expensive. And while they move the lights, then we 584 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 2: can talk. Or if I'm trying to make a flight 585 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 2: like that's also the worst, Like, oh my god, I 586 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,960 Speaker 2: gotta run for the gate. Hey man, I've made people 587 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 2: like yo, keep up and you got to take your 588 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 2: picture while you're walking. It's only because I just don't 589 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 2: have the time. And I'd like to think that any 590 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 2: other human being can understand, like, oh shit, maybe he 591 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 2: just didn't have the time. And if they don't again, 592 00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 2: I'm in customer service, and I lose that customer. Hopefully 593 00:29:04,480 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 2: I get opportunities to do good work and earn the MAC. 594 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna get you out of here on this one. 595 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: I think I've read this, and it could be maybe 596 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 1: somebody just reported it was a lot at one point 597 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 1: in time that you didn't want kids. 598 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: Where are you on kids now? I don't want them. 599 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 2: You don't know, and I'm still there. I'm forty seven. 600 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 2: I don't have them. You don't want to love Johnny 601 00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 2: So or Joanna's. That's great, and that's usually what everyone says. 602 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: And I gotta tell you it's not the easiest out there, 603 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,440 Speaker 2: because you know, a lot of why we're here is 604 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 2: to reproduce. I have a certain curiosity about life, and 605 00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 2: I also know I also know the investment that it takes, 606 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 2: and my biggest fear is as someone who's driven, many times, 607 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 2: stubborn and selfish. I try to approach the world with 608 00:29:55,920 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 2: kindness and curiosity, but I don't think I'm personally ready, 609 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 2: nor will I ever be, to invest the time it 610 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 2: needs to be a great parent, because I want to 611 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 2: live life for all it is and I still have 612 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 2: a lot to do, and I still want to do 613 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 2: a lot. I have a wonderful partner I do it with. 614 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 2: We've had open conversations about this. We share the same values. 615 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 2: It's a tough subject to talk about because it immediately 616 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,040 Speaker 2: puts you in a category and we can't help but judge. 617 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 2: People are human nature. We're all judgmental. I'd like to 618 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 2: believe that I operate under the construct that everyone's okay 619 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 2: to live in their life, and I can tell you 620 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 2: this is not like a knee jerk reaction. I've thought 621 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 2: long and hard about this, even as my youngest age 622 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 2: is at like fifteen sixteen, I remember thinking about it. 623 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 2: My opinions only hit that gray area during emotionally difficult times, 624 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 2: and I'm very happy with where I stand. I have 625 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 2: a lot of joy and fulfillment in my life. And 626 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 2: that's pretty much where I stand on that. With that 627 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: a difficult conversation to have when your wife no, it 628 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: was actually I learned from every scenario, and I've learned 629 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 2: from my past. 630 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, because you had a reality show, right, I did, 631 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 3: and it would play. 632 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 2: Oh man, so that no, no, no again. I don't regret that. 633 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 2: I look back on that fondly because it really showed 634 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 2: me who I was. Okay, So when I begin, I 635 00:31:29,080 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 2: got knocked off the bike. That's okay, I love Love's 636 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 2: time to get back up and go find it again. 637 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 2: And in that due process, I opened with the uncomfortable conversations. 638 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 2: So those are like first and second date questions with 639 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: my now wife. Yeah, and it was great because we 640 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 2: both got to lean into these uncomfortable moments and address 641 00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 2: this stuff. And now we've actually built a foundation where 642 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 2: whenever one of us is feeling bothered, nothing's off the table. 643 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 2: So we of course nobody's perfect. We have our disagreements, 644 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 2: but we handle them right then and there, and nothing 645 00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 2: is too uncomfortable to be unapproachable. And that's like starting 646 00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 2: off with the conversation about, hey, where do you see 647 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 2: family life and what is the definition of our family 648 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 2: and what brings you joy? And is this a bucket 649 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 2: that you need to fill? Those conversations have helped me, 650 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 2: at least personally, and her forge a path together as 651 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:18,680 Speaker 2: a team. 652 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:20,120 Speaker 3: You show up, but like this is about to be 653 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 3: the shortest date in the world. Where are you own? So? 654 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,440 Speaker 2: But I also believe there's something else, somebody out there 655 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 2: for everyone. Yes, I mean there. We can see that. 656 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,800 Speaker 2: The way the world is, there is a lot of 657 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 2: different people out there, and I think that's beautiful because 658 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 2: that can lead to love connection, which is good. I 659 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 2: guess my takewun this is if you're out there and 660 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 2: you feel alone, you're not.
