Ace Sky sits in lotus pose on an equipment box. Despite the crows feet around his eyes and lines of aging on his forehead, and his dark beard, somehow he looks younger than he is at 40. His big brown eyes full of optimism and that signature shiny tooth white to the dentists' delight smirk just making him keep a boyish-look. He speaks at a fast speed too, sounding like a kid-hero of a 90's video game
character with a Texan Twang:
I have a few things in common with Daisy: martial arts, gymnastics. I love indepedent wrestling, that's why I am cool with wrestling regionally. This is where I really had to pay my dues and when paying your dues becomes less romanticized each time in a very humbling way. When I started training professionally I was 13 years old, 55 days from 14 years old. I had been a backyard wrestler for three years, I started out with gymnastics and soccer when I was 4, started training in Taekwondo at 5 because my older brother Arlo got me into martial arts and pro wrestling, by my 10th birthday I became a black belt, was six years into amateur wrestling which both taught me discipline and dedication, being coachable. I had an ego going into my pro training which didn't help with the stigmas I had working against me as being the youngest, the smallest and a former backyard wrestler. I won over my trainer Mike who was right to be begrunding as an 18 year veteran wrestler and 8 years as a trainer because I was so excited by everything.
I have always had this insane passion and obession, it is weird to be a three year old kid in Texas, with an IQ of 190 and being like " I'm gonna be a wrestler and an astronuat." I was always weird, I moved to the beat of own drum, my success always came from ignoring doubters and any type of pushback. I romanticized "paying your dues" from what I read in autobiographies of wrestlers, so I loved everything everyone else seemed to hate, taking bumps/ learning to fall. I had transfered my way of doing that safely from gymnastics, martial arts and amateur wrestling mats to trampolines to boxing rings and self-made rings. I reliished in cleaning up the ring, taking it down and builiding them back up, just loved that labor and did it all for free as my hobby which engratited me enough with the promotion where I was starting at GCW( Gavelston Championship Wrestling).
The whole brutality of paying my dues was mixed with a lot of controversy locally as I had gotten kicked out of college at 16, after attending at 11 as both a student and assistant professor for selling drugs to students, so it was tough because parents and elders in the town who held me in such a high place in their mind as this local prodigy, I was this dissapointing burn-out. You get two reactions to that, you either dig your heels in and are indignant, " hate me now, I don't care" chip on your shoulder or you just genuinely be yourself and people will trust you again, the latter happened with me luckily.
I had no ill will towards anyone, I was just a weirdo and I made a mistake that cost me one dream but gave me this free time to pursue the other crazy endeavor I was already working on.
I would come out in my entrance, scowls from parents, who would be discouraging their kids from cheering for me or responding to my high-five , during the match they see me get beat up but I keep getting up, that shows them my heart, my drive, my passion as I fight back and find a way to win.
Even if I lost, it was never in vain to me, because they saw me put it all on the line.
After three years of making my name in the south, in 2001 I moved out of my childhood home in Sugar Land, Houston Texas to an RV in Chicago, illinois. During the week i worked as a coder, computer programming in a tech-start up and during the weekends wrestle on the midwest circuit, getting paid just enough to get to the next show. I look at my situation now, where since March 30 of 2020 I have been one of the top highest paid and most requested American free-agent pro wrestlers, able to afford to live here in multiple places- here in Nevada, in Texas, in New York, in Canada and in London, England. I am able to do what I love, at the highest level. I don't mind being regional again, I love it because I love this.
