Vito agrees and feels similarly about his journey to WWE. He points out that even though he made it to the big leagues of wrestling, his fondest memories in the business are of travelling up and down the road with other people who were trying to make a living in the business, living on bologna sandwiches or whatever else they could get their hands on that was cheap.
He thinks most wrestlers remember those times more fondly than their good years in WWE, and it’s almost as if the struggle to make it to the top is more satisfying than actually reaching the top.
Vito informs that he has a couple of resolutions this year as well. First he resolves to have more compassion towards people, and to try to be more understanding in regards to what other people are going through. Sometimes people are too quick to judge others without really knowing the facts of a certain situation.
Secondly, Vito admits that he still has a lot of head issues stemming from his career in professional wrestling, and this often results in him struggling to sleep and having dark thoughts. His goal this year is to maintain those thoughts and to continue to work at getting himself healthy.
