If you didn’t know, before I was helping people find the right ride, I was a professional wrestler. Yep—ring gear, bright lights, crazy moves, the whole deal. It may not sound like wrestling has anything to do with selling cars, but honestly, I use things I learned in the ring almost every single day on the lot.
Here’s a few ways my wrestling past helps me serve people better:
1. Presentation is Everything
When you wrestle on TV, you learn real quick that you can’t just “blend in.” You’ve got to find a way to stand out, keep people’s attention, and give them something memorable. That’s exactly how I approach sales. I don’t want to be another face behind a desk—I want your car-buying experience to be something you actually enjoy and remember.
2. It’s About the Audience (Not Just You)
In wrestling, it’s not about how cool you think your moves are—it’s about how the crowd reacts. Same goes for sales. I’m not here to push what I like; I want to know what excites you. If you’re pumped about the car you’re getting, then I’ve done my job.
3. Always Be Creative
Storylines, promos, entrances—wrestlers are constantly reinventing themselves. I’ve carried that over into sales by finding fun, creative ways to connect with customers. Whether it’s a funny story, a wrestling reference, or just making the process less stressful, I always try to keep it fresh.
4. Hard Work Behind the Scenes
What you see in the ring is just the tip of the iceberg—hours of training, travel, and prep go into every match. Same thing with finding the right car for someone. It’s not just unlocking a door and handing over the keys; it’s research, listening, and making sure the details are right so you drive away happy.
At the end of the day, wrestling taught me that people don’t just remember what you did—they remember how you made them feel. That’s what I carry with me on the lot. I’m not just here to sell cars—I’m here to make it an experience you’ll actually enjoy.
Because whether it’s in the ring or on the road, the goal is the same: give people a reason to cheer.
