The former champ also tackles the same 10 questions we always ask everyone!
Your movie 12 Rounds 2: Reloaded is out now. Is it true you did all your own stunts?
Yes! Doing my own stunts was one of the coolest experiences of the film – as a kid, I wanted to be a stuntman. That always appealed to me. Now, fast-forward, I’m doing some of the most amazing stunts in my own movie! What guy doesn’t want to do 180s or burn-outs in a car?
How different is it from what you do for live WWE shows?
The big difference is that in WWE I get one take, whereas in the movie I could do as many takes as I needed for a given stunt.
We asked Diamond Dallas Page if he had a favorite current take on his Diamond Cutter, and he said your RKO. What do you think of his idea about you two having a match?
DDP is without question a legend, but let’s not forget I was called “The Legend Killer” earlier in my career…
Have you tried his DDP Yoga?
No, I haven’t yet, but I have heard great things – a lot of the guys in the locker room swear by it. I guess I will have to give it a try!
Who’s your favorite opponent you’ve ever wrestled with?
I have had so many great opponents in WWE, from Triple H, to Mick Foley, to John Cena, to The Undertaker, but I would say that my favorite opponent to compete against is Christian.
What’s next for you?
Easy answer; WWE gold around my waist. The Apex Predator is on the hunt for the World Championship!
AND NOW: THE SAME 10 QUESTIONS WE ALWAYS ASK EVERYONE!
What was the last thing you had to apologize for?
I had to apologize once or twice to our director for getting on set late.
What’s your favorite curse word?
Hmm…I guess it would have to be the F-bomb.
What’s the worst hangover you’ve ever had?
I honestly do not remember; I’ve never been a big drinker. It’s safe to say it was a long while ago.
What was your first car?
My first car was a Dodge Minivan.
Do you have a scar that tells a story?
I have many scars that tell many stories. You could write a book!
Do you have a party trick?
When someone comes over to me and tells me their name I immediately spell it back to them. I am almost never right, but it breaks some of the tension!
What’s the biggest thing you’ve ever put in your mouth?
I tried to put an entire cheeseburger in my mouth all at once to make my daughter laugh. I failed, but she still laughed.
What’s the one thing to remember in a fist fight?
Keep your hands up!
Who was the last person to see you naked?
The last person to see me naked…can I get a drumroll or something? The last person to see me naked was me. I’m on the road, so I just recently got out of the shower…
Finish this sentence: If I ruled the world for a day, I would…
Close down Disney World for a day and take my daughter on all of the rides as many times as she wanted.
