TNA Wrestler "Stevie Richards" came in to start MMA training with me

[John Roderick]

Don't hate on me too bad. He is a SUPER nice dude, and really wants to learn all the aspects of MMA. This will be featured on the TNA website in his fitness column, and part of an ongoing series of features for MMA training at my academy. It was fun, and a first time experience in this medium for me.
Again, he's a super cool dude, humble, and wants to really learn all aspects of MMA. We started with some basic striking.

[Jim Allen]

That's awesome John! He seems like a really nice guy too

[John Roderick]

REALLY cool guy. Can't emphasize that enough. Very attentive and good student with great questions and desire to learn. Told me quite a bit about how he got into the pro wrestling business and how a lot of guys take advantage of the bits to injure others. It's not quite as "fake" as we think. Choreographed; yes, but "fake" no. He's actually had to have his vocal chords repaired because of getting his throat crushed. Not cool, but he is a very down to earth and intelligent person. Looking forward to having as a student. He jumped right into jiu jitsu class with everyone else and did everything that everyone else did with no ego, or issues. Had great questions, and soaked up everything like a sponge. Just what any instructor would want.

That is one sexy coach! No homo.

Saying "No Homo" after a gay statement like that is like saying "My Bad" after shooting someone, its doesn't quite exonerate you.
