- 0:34I'm doing amazing. You just, we just got done a
- 0:37amazing showcase for you tonight at the Sanctuary.
- 0:40First Friday you got to be in a triple threat with Tarzan Duran
- 0:44as well as R1, his second time ever in the country, which is
- 0:49kind of cool. So impressive, So impressive.
- 0:51Super good all the way from France, so it was a really cool
- 0:53showcase and to get you guys in a triple threat you came out on
- 0:55top. I did great timing I.
- 0:57Did I saw the opportunity, hit him with a spear and.
- 1:00Hit him with that hit stick. Hit him, put them down, put
- 1:03them. Down.
- 1:04Let's get into this question. Let's do it.
- 1:05Let's do it. So the first one here, what is
- 1:06your current goal in life? I want to wake up and go to work
- 1:09and it be wrestling. I hate going to my job.
- 1:12I hate going any job I've ever had.
- 1:14I come here, I come to wrestling shows and I feel like I'm in my
- 1:17my element. I want to do something in
- 1:19wrestling with my life. So if I can wake up and I'm
- 1:21going to work and it's paying the bills and it's wrestling
- 1:24related, I win. That's all I want out of this.
- 1:27What are you currently doing to achieve your goals?
- 1:29I work hard. You see the promos I do.
- 1:31I'm very. I take my social media very
- 1:34seriously because that's how you put yourself in front of people.
- 1:36It's all about advertising and marketing.
- 1:37And we have this free tool to do it.
- 1:39I'm going to do it. Yeah.
- 1:40So I think a lot of what I've been able to do so far early in
- 1:43my career has come because of how my social media presence is.
- 1:46And it's going well so far. And I've been able to wrestle
- 1:49some cool people and be in some cool places.
- 1:51And, you know, we just go up from here.
- 1:53So I work hard, I work out a lot, and I try to make sure I'm
- 1:57ready for everything and anything.
- 1:59Yeah. And it's not just your social
- 2:00media or anyone can go on and do the social media stuff.
- 2:02I mean, not anyone. It is take a lot of work, but
- 2:04you're backing it up with a ring presence to you.
- 2:06Everything, he said. The gym, the character you're
- 2:08in, ring ability, it's all about your.
- 2:10Backing and a lot of it comes down to showmanship.
- 2:12You know, I spent my entire life in entertainment As a little
- 2:15kid, I was making YouTube videos and I was making Vines.
- 2:17I went to school for broadcasting and entertainment
- 2:20where I learned how to do all the audio stuff, the video
- 2:22stuff, how to talk it to people in in front of a crowd and do
- 2:25all that. And when I tell people like back
- 2:28home, they're like, oh, so you know, which, what are you doing
- 2:30that degree? I'm like, I'm doing this, I'm
- 2:32doing this. You might not believe it, but
- 2:33I'm doing this. And I can't believe that I get
- 2:35to do that much with it every day.
- 2:37It's crazy. What can possibly be holding you
- 2:40back or distraction from your goals?
- 2:42Myself, myself, I need to be more optimistic and I need to go
- 2:47more places and I need to get the car and go more.
- 2:50Obviously, the issue is, is I got bills to pay.
- 2:52I got a car I got to pay for. I got stuff I got to do, you
- 2:54know, and I got to put in the work other places to make sure
- 2:58that I can get the places. And that's a struggle and it's
- 3:01hard to do it alone sometimes. As you know, MJ stacks my tag
- 3:04partner, he's got a whole other life going on and I'm so proud
- 3:07of him. And then we can't be on the road
- 3:09together all the time. But you might, you might see
- 3:12some stuff happening sooner than later, and I'm going to just
- 3:14leave it at that. Yeah, I miss you, MJ Sachs.
- 3:16I need you on this. Because even when I didn't like
- 3:19this guy, I did like you. I did.
- 3:20Like facts? I liked him a lot even though he
- 3:22flipped me off all the time. He's.
- 3:24Defending you. He had my.
- 3:24He had my back. Yeah.
- 3:25That's a great friend, rightfully so.
- 3:26Great friend. Who or what motivates or
- 3:29inspires you towards your goals? The people around me, because I
- 3:35just see so many people having fun and I feel like there was
- 3:38this just this part of my life, a lot of my life where I really
- 3:41wasn't around that I wasn't around the right energy, the
- 3:43right people, the vibes. And I come to wrestling shows or
- 3:46I see you and we talk about our content, we talk about all this
- 3:49stuff. And I see all these people
- 3:50trying to achieve their dreams in the same like venue.
- 3:53And that's what I think inspires me is seeing other people trying
- 3:57to do the same thing as me. It's we got to do it together
- 4:00though, You know what I mean? Like everyone, we all need each
- 4:02other in this and it is what it is.
- 4:04You know, you don't have to like each other.
- 4:06You don't have to deal with each other.
- 4:08Put up with each other for 25 minutes, 10 minutes at a time,
- 4:11get the stuff together. Just business.
- 4:13Absolutely yes. What are you grateful for and
- 4:16are you currently happy? Yeah, I'm, I'm very happy.
- 4:20I'm grateful for the, I think the support system I have,
- 4:24whether it's promoters or other companies that are, you know,
- 4:27guiding me the right direction or other workers that have been
- 4:30doing this for a while that see what I'm doing and they give me
- 4:32their advice. And then you got people at home
- 4:34like my father. Your daddy's amazing.
- 4:35My dad, dude. Like the best person in the
- 4:37world. Probably one of my favorite
- 4:39wrestling dads. Ohh, dude, he when he chopped
- 4:42Jay bougie at smash, when he got to do that, he went and told
- 4:45every single person that was the best Father's Day he ever had.
- 4:48And I believe it because like he was so happy.
- 4:50He he always tells me I've got to be your manager.
- 4:52I've got to be your manager. I'm like, listen pal, pay your
- 4:54dues and then then. We'll talk.
- 4:57But that was for him. That was very special.
- 4:59And he'll for, he'll remember that as long as he's alive.
- 5:02You know what I mean? Everything that I get to do and
- 5:04all this stuff, he comes and it's, it means something to him
- 5:06too. And he tells me and it's just so
- 5:08special and it wasn't for him. None of this would be possible
- 5:11for me. Where can people find or support
- 5:13you? Literally every platform is at
- 5:15the Ricky Price. TikTok, Twitter, Instagram,
- 5:19Facebook Pro Wrestling, Tees Tees Spring.
- 5:22I believe everything that I have, it's at the Ricky Price.
- 5:25If you type that in on your social media and I, you don't
- 5:27find me, I'm not on that platform.
- 5:29There it is. That'll do it. 5 questions with
