Sami Callihan returns to continue telling the saga that is his life journey in professional wrestling. Sami again sits down with Cody to discuss his life in professional wrestling and the lessons he’s learned along the way. Never before has Sami publicly gone into this much detail about his life & career.
In Part 2 of this 2-part series, Sami discusses what led to his first WWE tryout, his PC tryout experience, being in the first-ever class at NXT, his frustrating NXT experience, quitting his dream job at the WWE, working with TNA Wrestling, starting his own wrestling promotion in Wrestling Revolver, starting his own wrestling school, & his current goals in the wrestling business. By the end of Sami’s tale, we learn various lessons about the power of perseverance, betting on yourself, creating your own path toward your goals and dreams, and ultimately never giving up on your passion.
We ran out of time in the conversation to hear about one of Sami’s favorite times in the wrestling business – working with the revolutionary wrestling show “Lucha Underground.” To hear the BONUS chapter about Sami’s experience in Lucha Underground, sign up for a FREE TRIAL at http://patreon.com/codydeaner
