QUESTIONS:
What is a talent you have few people know about?
– A talent that I have that few people know about would be graphic designing which I discovered totally by accident. I also make killer scrambled eggs.
If you had to spend a year on a deserted island, what one thing would you take along?
– One thing I would bring to a deserted island if I had to spend a year on one would be at least a full on Jack Sparrow costume so I could live like a pirate for a bit. Savvy?
You’re a multi-million dollar lotto winner. What are you going to do?
– After the Government takes their peice of my bittersweet American dollar pie, I will invest the rest of what I receive in other companies and hopefully reap the benefits in time.
Who is your role model? Why?
– Honestly, you know, I couldn’t just name one. I am inspired by all who step out of their comfort zones and kick fear where it hurts (something I need to do more often). A few of my inspirations are guys like The Ultimate Warrior, Shawn Michaels, and Eddie Guerrero along with all of my coaches at Blacklist Martial Arts & Fitness in Houma, LA.
If you were a superhero, who would you be and what would your super power be?
– If I were a superhero, I would be Anti Electronic Man. I would have the ability or super power to get kids eyes off their phone screen machines for 24 hours at a time so they could go outside, do some old fashioned Denise Austin style workouts, and play a classic game of kickball on occasion.
TV show guilty pleasure?
– The Flash
Proudest moment?
– My proudest moments have yet to be seen. “Cliche way of saying things, Austin”… I know. At 18 years old, I have done some really cool things thus far, but everything I do now is preparing me for the absolutely amazing things I am going to set out to do in the future. By no means am I a realistic person, but hey, if Edison wasn’t, flipping a switch wouldn’t give us light.
What’s on your nightstand?
– Glee Season 1 & Phil Collins Soundtrack, a Hulk Hogan action figure, and of course my Bible so I can say my prayers after eating my vitamins.
How do you friends describe you?
– Haha, I guess it depends on the day! My friends describe me as a person that they could receive advice from, one that has respect for all those that have it for me, even for the ones that don’t. A postive, competitive, creative, somewhat stubborn, individual that truly never loses sight of what he wants in life. Take it or leave it.
Describe your dream adventure?
– My dream adventure would be taking a long trip to some place like Brazil, South Africa, or India to explore different cultures and traditions.
I wish I could do ____________ better.
– Cooking
Describe your dream job.
– My dream job is and has always been to become a WWE Superstar.
As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
– As a child until I found wrestling, I was dead set on wanting to become a magician after seeing Criss Angel perform. Even though roads have changed paths with that specific dream of mine, the art of performing, doing something greater than what is seen… its a feature so prevalent in my life.
What was your best gift ever?
– The best gift I have ever received would be a box of wrestling shirts after Hurricane Katrina from my cousin Cynthias brother in law, Michael Hayes. This gift would go on to change the course of my life in every way you could possibly imagine. Its such a testimony in life when saying that the little things go a long way.
