Anderson informs that former WWE Superstar, Molly Holly shows up at their wrestling school from time to time to speak to the trainees. He says that she’s a terrific success story, having made it to WWE when nobody really thought she could, and she’s really good at getting her points across to the trainees.

He adds that he’s brutally honest to his trainees in informing them that it’s hard to make money in the wrestling business when you’re first starting out. Austin agrees with that point entirely, saying that when he started out he was driving 400 miles each day from one town to the next, making $10-$15 at each show. He says he was literally starving back in those days.

Anderson informs that he enjoyed wrestling as a child, but got away from it in his teenage years. When he was in his early 20’s his friends made him watch WWE because there was a new star called ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin who was really cool. Anderson fell in love with Austin and wrestling in general and eventually decided to join a wrestling school when he was 22. As soon as he stepped into a ring for the first time he knew he had found his calling in life.
