Former NFL player Brennan Williams recently spoke with Inquisitr’s Mark Suleymanov about making the switch from football to pro wrestling and training with Booker T. Here are the highlights.
On making the switch from football to professional wrestling:
I know there could be a stigma for guys who come in like, “oh, I’m done with football, let’s try wrestling and get a paycheck.” There’s a stigma about that and certain people have trouble with that. That’s not me at all, this is a passion of mine. Everybody who’s contacted me since I said I was done with football said to me, “This is what you should be doing, I’m surprised it took you so long.”
On training with Booker T:
My original thought was to train with Booker for a couple of months and get my feet wet. That’s exactly what he recommended. I’m a guy who doesn’t like going into situations blind and like I said, I don’t claim to know anything about pro wrestling yet but I plan on knowing a lot in a couple months.
