Diamond Dallas Page Says His DDP Yoga Legacy Will “Dwarf” His Wrestling Career

Diamond Dallas Page built a Hall of Fame career inside the wrestling ring—but if you ask him, that’s not what he’ll be remembered for.

During an interview on Insight with Chris Van Vliet, DDP opened up about how his post-wrestling mission of helping people through DDP Yoga has become the true calling of his life. The three-time WCW Champion revealed that years ago, he predicted his work outside the ring would leave a much deeper mark than anything he did with a title belt.

“I just remember myself saying to myself, at some point, what we’re doing today is going to dwarf my wrestling career,” he said. “I said that to Bryan Alvarez like 16 years ago… and he goes, ‘Bro, that’s a bold statement.’ He said, ‘You had a hell of a career.’ I said, ‘Yeah, man, but I just believe.’”

DDP has received Hall of Fame nods not just for wrestling, but for humanitarian achievements too. He recalled being honored by the Cauliflower Alley Club, where Brian Blair called him and said:

“We want to put you in as the humanitarian this year, bro… it’s the 50th year, and we want you.”

That moment, Page explained, helped confirm that his greater purpose was helping others change their lives through fitness, discipline, and mindset. He compared the impact of DDP Yoga to his time in the ring and admitted that even his own WWE Hall of Fame induction speech meant more than any match he ever wrestled.

“I consider the best thing I’ve done in wrestling is my Hall of Fame speech.”

The real shift came when his program helped disabled vet Arthur Boorman walk again. That viral transformation lit the fire for what DDP would build into a global brand—one that’s helped countless lives including those of Jake Roberts, Scott Hall, Lex Luger, and many others.

“I knew Arthur, what Arthur had done. I saw that,” he said, reflecting on the power of proof and belief.

For DDP, the championship gold doesn’t define his greatness. It’s the lives transformed through the yoga mat, the breathwork, the mindset shifts, and the simple philosophy of giving.

“I just believe,” he repeated. And from the looks of it, that belief has become the real main event of his legacy.

DDP is living proof that reinvention doesn’t end with a wrestling career. While fans still celebrate his legendary matches, it’s clear that the diamond he left behind isn’t just in his Cutter—it’s in the lives he helped reshape
