  We are here at Spotlight Slam hosted by Ace Austin in

• 0:26
  Cowboy. Bad Billy Walker.
• 0:29
  I don't think any introduction needs to be done.
• 0:30
  Let's get right into the questions.
• 0:32
  What is your current goal in life?
• 0:34
  My current goal in life? Well, to preach the gospel
• 0:38
  according to rods, to every last individual who will take it to
• 0:41
  their heart. And then we say rods jump the
• 0:44
  WWE Hall of Famer Mr. Johnny. Rods, 1996 WWE Hall of Famer.
• 0:50
  The unparticular Johnny Rods. The man who sired me.
• 0:52
  The man who made me what I am today, My second father.
• 0:56
  It's his gospel that I preach. And it bleeds through you to
• 1:01
  others. I will say that right now.
• 1:04
  If it takes to them, it takes to them.
• 1:05
  If they want to learn, they'll learn.
• 1:08
  If they want to perpetuate a cosplay in life, then so be it.
• 1:12
  God bless them and have to it. But that's not where I'm coming
• 1:16
  from. I'd.
• 1:18
  Love that. What, what?
• 1:20
  What are? What are you currently doing to
• 1:22
  achieve your goals? Well, right now I'm doing some
• 1:25
  missionary work, visiting several schools, testing, going
• 1:31
  out there and implementing little adjustments here and
• 1:34
  there to help try and gain more focus and understanding from the
• 1:39
  people who were out there trying to learn something.
• 1:43
  If they want to take the time to listen, I'll be more than happy
• 1:47
  to take the time to preach. What is currently holding you
• 1:50
  back are a possible distraction from your goals.
• 1:56
  Time. There's only so much time that
• 2:00
  you have. There's only so much time that
• 2:02
  you give. That's why I went to prison.
• 2:03
  That says I've been in the business for so many years, so
• 2:07
  many years. I've been doing this, I've been
• 2:08
  doing that. That's good for you.
• 2:10
  How many minutes have you spent in the ring training?
• 2:15
  How many moments have you taken to get your timing right, to get
• 2:22
  your logic straight? Seriously.
• 2:26
  That's. It reduces a lot of people's
• 2:28
  hours. Listen, the blessing that we had
• 2:30
  at Gleason's Gym in Brooklyn, NY, on the tune of you Johnny
• 2:34
  Rides at the world of unpredictable wrestling is that
• 2:36
  we trained amongst fighters and they fought and they're real.
• 2:45
  So if you want to earn their respect, you got to know real.
• 2:49
  Absolutely. Who or what in motivates or
• 2:52
  inspires you? All the young UNS who come out
• 2:57
  to train with conviction. If look, I'm a stage 3
• 3:07
  colorectal cancer survivor. I get in the ring to keep my
• 3:11
  body going and I'm blessed when I see the the students get in
• 3:19
  the ring time after time after to train.
• 3:23
  Not to chase glory, not to be glory hounds, but to train to
• 3:28
  learn what real is. Because if you don't own it, how
• 3:34
  can you sell it? Yeah.
• 3:37
  Because that's what the public wants.
• 3:41
  They want to be entertained. You want to be entertained.
• 3:44
  Make it as real as you can without killing your brother.
• 3:47
  How about that? Yeah.
• 3:50
  What are you currently grateful for and are you happy?
• 3:54
  I'm grateful to still be breathing.
• 3:57

• 4:00
  been with her for 28 years that we love you, the one and only
• 4:04

• 4:08
  and gals and. Are you currently happy?
