Derek is joined by pro wrestling superstar and motivational speaker, Marc Mero (aka Johnny B. Badd).
Marc discusses his life after wrestling, doing motivational work through his non-profit organization, Champion of Choices. He tours schools around the country and shares his incredible life story with young impressionable students in search of hope and inspiration. Marc's journey is sure to bring tears to your eyes, and enlighten your own journey through trials and tribulations.
As a mental health advocate, Derek and Marc talk about the importance of communication, family, support, self-worth, and much more. Of course, we couldn't have the "wildman" formerly known as Johnny B. Badd without discussing his time in the wrestling business. Marc talks about:
- His divorce from ex-wife Rena Mero (Sable) and her relationship with Brock Lesnar - The time X-Pac (Sean Waltman) shit in her bag - His short run as WWE Intercontinental champion - The backstage altercation with Butch Reed on his first night in WCW - Vince McMahon pitching the "Wildman" gimmick - Dusty Rhodes pitching the Johnny B. Badd gimmick and being a mentor - Would Johnny B. Badd be considered "black-face" in 2021 - Dealing cocaine and being raided by the cops in the 80s - and much more.
