>>17765025>I remember him mentioning a few years ago that he was unironically working at Hot Topic when not wrestling indies or TNA.People get onto stuff like this and Taylor Wilde working at Sunglass Hut, Schiavone at Starbucks, but both of them didn't need to, they just did it for health insurance in Schiavone Wilde's case, and in Ace Austin's, he did like 1 shift a week because Hot Topic gives massive discounts or free tickets to whatever shitty bands they're promoting, so he used it for cheap gigs.
But unlike WWE and AEW, TNA either filmed every week at the same location, or did like 1 taping over a weekend every 6 weeks, so what else are you supposed to do with your time? Go wrestle a shitty indie for $100 and risk injuring yourself, or go stand behind a counter for 4 hours and get the same amount of money, plus the benefits of being employed.
[spoiler:lit]I got lucky with crypto so I shoot don't have to work again, but I still do a shift or two every week at my local museum coz I think science is cool, I like teaching kids, so I can get doing an easy job just for fun.[/spoiler:lit]
