“I’m 41 years old. By the time I’m 50, I think I’ll be done. But I’m not like, ‘I’m going to do auditions once in a while…’ I actually almost do them because my wife is like, ‘oh, do them. Because what if you don’t? Then you wonder what would have happened if you had.’
So I do auditions here and there, crossing my fingers that they don’t call me because I love what I do. I don’t want to stop. I don’t want to have to stop because of my physicality. So I try to do everything I can on a daily basis to still be able to do it on a physical level. ”
In addition, “La Vibora” mentioned his change of attitude over the years, relating his personal growth to the evolution that Shawn Michaels had.
“I was lucky to have some fantastic people in the locker room. I got to see how they approached life and how they were with their kids. I got to see Shawn Michaels, who, in every way, was a complete asshole.
And when he I met, I even thought it was a ****. However, I saw the change and I heard stories. And I feel like, it’s really kind of funny. Kind of the same thing happened to me. Kind of. You know, it’s part of the way I think my legacy is my longevity.”
