  amazing Gee Miller. Oh yeah, she's fantastic.
• 0:58
  The lovely, amazing, all those any adjectives you can describe,
• 1:02
  they all fit. Let's.
• 1:03
  Get right into it. Positive adjective?
• 1:05
  Absolutely. What is your current goal in
• 1:07
  life? Well, professionally, I think
• 1:11
  I'm, I've, I've, I've had no issue achieving all of the goals
• 1:15
  that I set forth. And professionally I, I'm
• 1:18
  looking forward to some things, but I more than anything,
• 1:20
  personally, my goal in life right now is to buy a house.
• 1:27
  That's kind of what I'm trying to figure my way into right now.
• 1:31
  I'm working on buying a house and building my LLC so I can
• 1:36
  learn how to properly, you know, be a business.
• 1:40
  That's what I'm working. On about this same last year,
• 1:42
  you lost the home. Yeah, so.
• 1:45
  It's been a. Crazy year.
• 1:47
  Was that last year or two years ago now?
• 1:49
  I thought it was last two years ago.
• 1:50
  Two years ago, two years ago, October.
• 1:52
  Yep, Yep, Yep. Apartment fire.
• 1:53
  We lost just about everything and the rebuilding has been
• 1:57
  unbelievable and now I could very well be in a position to
• 2:00
  purchase a home, which is incredible.
• 2:02
  So the the comeback has been too sweet.
• 2:04
  And the and the bat cave. The bat cave, it's.
• 2:06
  Showing. The Bat Cave, Yeah, I built
• 2:08
  built a gym in my garage for those of you that don't know
• 2:10
  what the bat cave is on. Social media, so you know.
• 2:13
  Too. Yeah, and it's my sweet, sweet
• 2:16
  gym in my garage and it's expanding and I'm very excited
• 2:20
  about it. What are you currently doing to
• 2:21
  achieve your goals? I have been working with a
• 2:26
  financial advisor and an attorney so that I don't put my
• 2:30
  name on any contracts that I don't understand.
• 2:34
  So yeah, they've been helping me, you know, make the right
• 2:37
  financial decisions and put my money in the right places so I
• 2:41
  can build my wealth. And, and they're helping me with
• 2:45
  like contract stuff like, you know, legal language that I
• 2:49
  don't understand. Yeah, they're, they're
• 2:50
  incredibly helpful. So yeah, I've, I've just been
• 2:53
  doing a lot of smart money moves to, to get to a point where I
• 2:59
  could, you know, put a down payment on a house and, and
• 3:02
  figure that out. So that's, yeah, I think, oh, I
• 3:04
  mean, well, professionally, I'm making lots of money.
• 3:07
  That's what I'm doing to achieve, to achieve that goal.
• 3:10
  I'm just building my wealth constantly.
• 3:13
  Yeah. What is the What's possibly
• 3:15
  holding you back? Our distraction from your goals.
• 3:20
  Probably the economy maybe if you know, if that's the right
• 3:27
  way to say that I just like the prices of everything right now
• 3:31
  and inflation and, you know, just other bills, you know,
• 3:35
  yeah, there's there. That's probably probably the
• 3:38
  biggest thing. And one of our animals just got
• 3:43
  a little sick. So that might be a little bit of
• 3:47
  a financial hardship that's going to change my decision, but
• 3:53
  we're working on crossing that bridge.
• 3:54
  So yeah, probably just like the current state of the financial
• 3:59
  world and also other financial obligations within my world.
• 4:06
  What motivates or inspires you? Arnold Schwarzenegger is a huge
• 4:17
  motivation. You know, kind of he's a yeah,
• 4:22
  yeah, Arnold Schwarzenegger motivates me a whole lot.
• 4:25
  I just recently watched, I've always been a fan of of Arnold,
• 4:29
  but I just recently watched his like, Netflix documentary as a
• 4:33
  three, three-part thing. And it was like really
• 4:37
  impactful, really well done. And it just kind of like, you
• 4:42
  got me thinking in the right direction on a lot of things.
• 4:44
  He's one of the guys that like, you know, he, he shaped his life
• 4:49
  the way that he wanted to and he never let anything get in his
• 4:52
  way. And that's kind of how I've
• 4:53
  always seen myself. That's why I started calling
• 4:56
  myself the inevitable is because you cannot prevent what I want
• 5:01
  from happening. I'm going to always manifest and
• 5:03
  create, you know, my world. So I'm hugely inspired by him
• 5:07
  for sure. And the pro wrestling, I mean,
• 5:10
  pro wrestling motivates me every day to wake up.
• 5:12
  So, you know, that's a huge, huge part.
• 5:16
  The next one is what are you grateful for and are you happy?
• 5:19
  But to, to kind of add on to that yesterday, very cool
• 5:21
  experience from an outside perspective of you and your
• 5:24
  brother going back to your, your hometown and your home school
• 5:27
  and performing in the gym that you probably went to pep rallies
• 5:31
  and did all that stuff for. So that's, that was a cool
• 5:33
  moment and thank you for creating that event for us to
• 5:37
  kind of see that and showcase. It was really, really fun.
• 5:40
  But yes, what are you grateful for and are you happy?
• 5:43
  I am grateful for the love of my life, Georgia Lee, Gia Miller.
• 5:51
  I am grateful for the life that we have together and the life
• 5:55
  that we are creating and working towards every day.
• 5:57
  I'm grateful for professional wrestling because without it I
• 6:00
  would have no purpose. There are lots of other things
• 6:04
  that I'm good at, but pro wrestling is what I was put on
• 6:07
  this earth to do. So yeah, I'm definitely grateful
• 6:10
  for that. And I, I am happy.
• 6:13
  Sometimes I struggle to find the happiness within this wonderful
• 6:17
  world that I, that I have created for myself.
• 6:21
  I'm always, I guess I'm a perfectionist.
• 6:24
  So I'm always looking for perfection.
• 6:26
  I'm, I'm always looking towards the next goal, towards the next
• 6:30
  thing I want to do. So sometimes I struggle to sit
• 6:34
  and reflect on how sweet things really are.
• 6:38
  So yeah, I think I'm happy, but sometimes I don't let myself be
• 6:42
  happy. So I got to do better about
• 6:45
  that, and so should all of you that struggle with that.
• 6:47
  Well, I will say I talked to you a little bit off camera about
• 6:50
  this, but here at the Sanctuary, we are very grateful and very
• 6:54
  proud of you for all of your accomplishments and getting out
• 6:56
  there outside of the small little region of North East PA
• 6:59
  and really making a name for yourself, you know, a member of
• 7:02
  the Bullet Club in Japan, all over the world.
• 7:04
  And you set a standard here in this building that we all strive
• 7:08
  to make this better and try to make it a place for the next
• 7:12
  person like you to come out of. So thank you for all your hard
• 7:15
  work and inspiring all of us to to be better people.
• 7:18
  Of course, this is this place is really, really special and I and
• 7:21
  I hope that I hope that many generations get to experience
• 7:26
  how special this place. Really is.
• 7:29
  Yeah, and that that's, I want everyone to experience Trotsky
• 7:33
  screaming across this giant building.
• 7:35
  Yes. Well, that's.
• 7:38
  Nothing else like it. We're five questions with ABJ.
• 7:41
