So I can't rly link shit on mobile but, on instagram, Otis made a post about how he's been struggling with dyslexia for his entire life and that he just finished his first full book after about a year of classes. Wholesome as f***.

If you ever need a wholesome moment, go look at Otis' IG post and all the support from various wrestlers in the replies (blue check comments all go to the top, so they're the first thing you'll see without needing to scroll through the rest)

I don't think so, but Tucker did, and it was very sweet |

Very sweet, and brave of him to be so candid about his reading struggles.

That's really great for him, and I'll always applaud somebody famous choosing to share their struggle with something and maybe helping somebody else with the same issue realise they're not alone, or even to take the first step in changing things.

Yeah, I mean a lot of them have worked together for years from one company to the next, so not thinking they're friends or really care seriously about some brand war is goofy. I watch both (Well, more like... five) so I think it's always been silly regardless. Sara Lee's abrupt passing and the reaction the donations for her family received from the wrestling community as a whole should say all that needed to be said about it anyway. |

Glad he did this after Vince stepped down. He would gave him a pet bunny and renamed him Sito.

This is so f***ing awesome and a great example of finding strength in vulnerability and kicking it’s butt.
And for what it’s worth, I’ve loved reading since I was a child but have a HELL of a time committing these days. Major props to Otis. That’s a really good book too.

Hopefully he doesn't pick a book that makes him stop reading

That is amazing. He has a world to explore and it's hard to imagine how that must feel for someone who learned reading in such a self-conscious way.
