Just wanted to drop a hello from North Carolina to everyone. I am down here visiting my family and helping my mother with some business things. I am getting excited about the next Louisville Gardens show on Friday the 13th in which Flash and I take on the Disciples of Synn for the Southern Tag Team Chapionship. This match has street fight rules and anything goes, basically it is a hardcore tag title match. With Flash on my side, which he is the king of hardcore down here, we should prevail. I said that everytime I will talk about a friend or someone that is special to me. Today I will talk about my friend Danny Hackenbracht. Danny has been one of my best friends since 7th grade. He has been there to support me thru everything that I have ever gone thru, including becoming a father at a young age and my switching of colleges. I was the best man in his wedding which meant a lot to me and someday when I get married I will be able to return that to him. He is married and along with his wife Heather they live in Beaumont, Texas where Danny is a teacher and Heather an engineer for Dupont. They are like a brother and sister to me and will always hold a special place in my heart. Danny taught me a lot of things in life, but most importantly he taught me to never give up in life or in athletics. Danny played football at Michigan State, and thru college and in high school, he suffered injuries that most average athletes would let end their careers but he didnt. He might be the most self-driving individual i have ever met. He also coaches football in Beaumont where he can share his knowledge of sports and his knowledge of determination to his students. He does not understand the word quit, and has always told me to follow my dreams. As many doubted me becoming a wrestler, Danny did not. He knew that I could do whatever I wanted if I just put my mind to it. Danny Hackenbract is an unbelievable person, more importantly, he is my best friend. We have been thru a lot together, and he has pulled me thru a lot of bad situations and shown me the light at the end of the tunnel. Danny, THANK YOU! Talk to you all soon.
