Timing is Everything

Timing is Everything

When you look at a person in a wheelchair what do you see? Someone who has lived a long life and is worn down by time? A victim of unfortunate events, or someone to feel sorry for? I've had Cerebral Palsy my entire life and will have it for the rest of my life heck if there is an afterlife I hope heaven has wheelchair ramps. I was often asked as a child and sometimes as a teenager do you wish you could walk or didn't have your disability? I would usually say no because being born with a disability a large portion of the challenges I've faced were a part of my everyday life, such as trying to find a modification to participate in sports, going to Physio therapy apointments or getting new AFOs. When I turned 16 and all of my able-bodied classmates were getting their drivers licence I defiantly would have told you "Yes I want to be able to drive a car, travel the world, apply for any job without think about barriers.

I'm 27 now and I've been fortunate to travel to Florida twice Ireland once however, I still crave the thought of traveling the world, working in the pro wrestling industry as a commentator or a creative writer. I am at a point in my life where I'm proud of my Cerebral Palsy because my experiences have helped me become the person I am today someone who is patient, constantly creating, and lovably stubborn. I will work in the pro wrestling industry its only a matter of when if people like Zack Gowen an amputee Dylan Postl a person with dwarfism and  David Bostian III a wrestler who is partially deaf can succeed as personalities can succeed in places like WWE, AEW, or TNA I don't see why I can't. I've spend nearly two decades watching wrestling from all over the world in the 1980s you had to be very athletic, or you had to have a success relative, in the 1990s you had to have an attitude and something that made you stand out. The stand out principle still applies in 2025 and I'll tell you what makes me stand out 20 years of passion for the industry, 27 years of pent up frustration and a lifetime's of proving to people that my disability doesn't define who I am, what defines who I am is what I do with my life in spite of what anyone tells me I can and can't do in spite of what life has to throws at me so if theirs any pro wrestling company out their whether your one of the larger company or your independent and trying to change the game, I dare you, I dare you to take a chance on me just like you do every time you bring a new talent into the locker room.

They say that when a wildfire burns in Africa it creates grown for even greener grasslands I am the Rolling Dragon every time I have a guest on my podcast I burn down a barrier so the next disabled person who comes along can tell their story with confidence. Take a chance on me let me be the the first disabled commentator for a nationally recognized wrestling company and I promise you the grass will not only be greener in your organization but everywhere I go going forward its not if its a matter of when timing is everything.
