      @@markv1274 I mean in fairness to Maven as well, back when he wrestled it wasn't quite as easy to get into WWE as it is now. 2000-2005 WWE was the pinnacle of stacked rosters and it often took something like Tough Enough to get your foot in the door without putting in years upon years on the indy scene. Either way, professional wrestling is tough on the body and the training is not for everyone just like plumbing and carpentry have their own niches that make them tough at times.

    Maven, I grew up in Charlotte, NC and lived down the street from Rick Flair and Blackjack Mulligan (80’s). I went to school with the sons of some of the wrestlers, some of whom wrestled as well (Anderson). But, during your era, I was not really watching wrestling all that much, so I only know you through your CZcams channel. But I must say, I really enjoy watching your videos as they are so informative and fun to watch. You’re an excellent & clear speaker, and I have nothing but respect for what you accomplished and the stories you have to tell. I almost find them more interesting (or at least as much) as the actual matches! I think you deliver the information from your perspective in a very respectful manner. It’s fun to hear the back stories. It’s crazy that there would be any haters. Those haters can only wish they had even a fraction of your career, and likely couldn’t hold a candle to you. Your responses to their stupid criticism were done with class! Thanks Maven!

      Same here to be honest. I actually didn't even realize he was there till 2005 because I don't think I paid attention to his post-2002/2003 matches at all. The only thing I remembered of him was his theme and his dropkick, but seeing his interviews with CVV and his CZcams channel, I see a very charismatic and positive person. Too bad we didn't get to see his work on the mic, but I think he gained experience in that field during his work with HSN.

    6:31 I absolutely LOVE what you said here. I used to be very left leaning, it seemed like I was in a utopia over there, we supported freedom of speech, we supported people being open minded, then all of a sudden things changed, you could no longer criticize things like islam, humor was banned, if you didn't toe the line and say the "correct" opinions you were kicked from any groups you were in. It was at that point for the first time in my life I started to go into conservative or right leaning spaces, I was accepted, they supported free speech and open mindedness, it was okay that I didn't agree with everything they believed, I wasn't kicked because of those differences instead we debated them, a lot of my opinions were changed because of that. I discovered I was previously in an echo chamber, with no chance of even hearing the other side, all the other sides arguments were said by people in the chamber, so they were all strawmen, for example I thought conservatives hated gay people and when I entered their spaces I was shocked to find out they didn't. Having said that, I knew I didn't belong there. I was just there because I was welcomed there, I wasn't right wing or conservative. Since then I've done those little "where are you on the political scale" tests and according to that I'm a centrist. Now, if I took that test before this happened I would have been pretty far left, because that time I was having those debates so many of my opinions changed and I love that it happened. Now I think all my opinions are forged and can't be beaten, because I've debated them all many times over. (that doesn't mean they're set in stone, they can change the moment someone defeats them) and what you said here is my exact experience, it's an experience everyone should have. :)
