I think one of the hardest things about these past two months has been how quickly life can change.
At Wembley, I was experiencing one of the happiest moments of my career. Not long afterward, I was dealing with grief I never expected.
And through all of it, wrestling was still there.
There were days when being around my wrestling family helped. There were other days when everything felt overwhelming. I’m still figuring out how to navigate that.
I don’t want to pretend that winning a championship makes everything in life easier, because it doesn’t.
But I am grateful that I get to do something I love, and I’m grateful for the people who have shown me kindness and support during this time.
If you’ve been going through something difficult yourself, I hope you’re giving yourself the time you need. I know I’m trying to do that too.
