I am a HUGE Country music fan since I was 11 years old. I heard Garth Brooks sing 'Rodeo' and I was hooked. Artists like Tim McGraw, Billy Ray Cyrus, Tracy Lawrence, and Collin Raye were some of my favorites growing up. These days, I'm really into Eric Church, Thomas Rhett, Keith Urban, and Jason Aldean. I'm a graduate of WKU in Bowling Green, and I'm a lifelong UK fan. I'll only cheer against the Cats when they play my Toppers! I'm also a fan of the Tennessee Titans! I married my wife, Lori in 2005 and we have two beautiful children, LeAnn and Bradley, plus a sweet dog, Eva (from the VHS!). I love to travel, especially to Disney World and the Smoky Mountains! And I can often be found in local and regional wrestling rings announcing, managing, or sometimes going by one of my many aliases. Oh, and anytime you wanna throw down on some karaoke, I'm there!
