The post is as follows:
Blessed with this journey. The highs, the lows, I wouldn’t change them because they brought me here. Follow your passion and don’t give up. I’ve learned so much from my rotc peers and I am so blessed to call many of them family.
I’ve taken some back roads and a few detours but I have realized my goals, and there is much more in the world of pro wrestling I’d like to accomplish. Thank you to those who support the journey, it’s not been an easy one but without y’all it wouldn’t be possible.
