Matt Sydal :
It is cliché but it is true that it takes the worst to get to the other side. I am so fortunate to have built up a reputation that has proved itself to be unbreakable, that I can't take for granted when some would.
I am fortunate to have that hindsight especially as someone who gets egg on their face as much as I have. Before I was reborn I had so many issues, I struggled with confidence, self esteem. I was way too modest and it was false humility really.
At 29 years old I got into a motorcycle accident on my birthday. It was embarrassing because it really was more of a scooter size . I dislocated my foot in five places and broke it in four places, it is permanently disfigured. I thought it was over, WWE aided me in healing myself and I was able to wrestle but a year later I was fired . That very weekend I took my trip to the Peruvian jungle for a spiritual retreat, the medicine legal and given in a ceremony by healer monks, the side effect was that the cacti plant makes you realize your true goal and desires in life, I could've lost my love for pro wrestling instead it had the opposite effect. My passion came back ten-fold and for 5 years I've had this resurgence .
For my first 7 years I was just an action guy and I realized If you don't have a plan , you'll just end up part of someone else's . This is not religion, it's spiritual and holistic but also based in science as well that everything invokes a reaction, if you stand for nothing, you will fall for everything. To avoid that, open your third eye.
I trust Bret Hart more than anyone, he's one of my idols, influenced and impacted what I've aspired to do for two decades. It is an honor to work for Bret.
