I've been really loving Maven's channel since he launched a few weeks ago. He really knows how to tell the story, no pun intended, and bring you into the world of wrestling with the way he speaks and his delivery. I really appreciate the genuine insight that he gives us that grew up watching wrestling.

[@Imwatching420]

I worked in the indies around the same time Maven was in WWE. I spent about 6 years bumping every weekend, taking chairs to the skull, breaking tables with my spine, etc. Now I too have three bulging herniated discs, deterioration, a messed up neck.. I’m only 41.. I feel like the last three minutes of this video really spoke to me. Nobody really seems to understand the impact it has had on my life. Thank you Maven.

My brother was taken 5 years ago. We were throwing a huge surprise BDay for our grandma.

Instead he left walking and never returned. I’m still haunted by this.

[@sungoddess4826]

There was a time after Maven left the WWE and came into a circle of friends who were close to me. We were friends with Maven for a few years before he moved to New York. I have to say, he was a pleasure to be around and we always wanted the best for him. He was a genuine, talented soul who made an impact on all of us. It’s unfortunate that we lost contact with him years ago. Seeing him in this light is amazing. He know who we are and we will never forget you Maven. God bless you ❤

Maven addressing the incident from 10 years ago when he was a bouncer in NYC is very classy. I am going to assume anyone reading my message knows about the Reddit post in question, which is still up and searchable on Google. The TLDR version is that someone recognized Maven in 2013 as he was bouncing and Maven told them to take off in a mean, not-so-Maven way. We can assume Maven looked this up as well, saw it, felt bad, and made this short apology in the first half of this video. Cheering you on Maven. 🙂

[@namikstudios]

The funny thing is that after Maven eliminated him, Taker took Maven out of the ring but he didn't go over the top rope... meaning that Maven was never eliminated from the Royal Rumble. Based on that the match never ended that night, as Triple H wasn't eliminated either. One of them must have gone over the top rope at some time in a subsequent match though... It is possible that Maven was in fact the real winner.

I am dealing with the same exact pain and bulging/ herniated discs in the same regions of my neck and much like your experience it came out of nowhere like a, "slap in the face" and it also came in at the exact same time yours did, back in '17. Living everyday struggling to get out of bed in the morning really affects quality of life so I can sympathize with you there, brother. But knowing I have a family to provide for is what makes me push through it, and I have a very low pain tolerance. If you had a specific routine or exercise or stretch you do that alleviates some of that horrible pain I'd appreciate your advice, man. I used to watch you back in the day as a kid, I still even have your action figure somewhere in my old things.

[@lou.e.francisco2350]

Maven I love the KZbin vids please keep going man. It’s great to see ya and love the stories man

[@kenmo6]

I live with chronic pain and Maven talking about his pain is a HUGE help to get through the day.

[@jonbourgoin182]

Maven getting that silver play button after being a KZbinr for barely two months. Well deserved!

[@anthonyrusso3625]

You know you made it big when companies start using your channel for promoting. Might I add, it was the best transition I’ve seen on a video in a long time. Congrats on the success!

[@diabeticman2194]

Maven getting a KZbin sponsorships shows how much he’s grown on KZbin, you love to see it! That privacy story was horrifying, goodness me

[@garattyfisher]

I will say that I stopped watching wrestling about the 1999. I never saw maven wrestle, but his stories are so awesome, I'm a subscriber just to learn every little detail that happened on the ring and backstage. Great channel.

Maven sold SurfShark like a boss. I've just subscribed to it even though I have 3 VPNs.

[@MavenKHuffman]

🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 that comment made me smile. Thanks brotha

[@givenkibanza]

Thanks for addressing the incident where you worked as a bouncer and a fan got a terrible interaction. I saw the comment on one of your previous videos, as I’ve been bingeing on most of them since coming across your channel in the past week. You’re a pretty cool dude!

[@mursemichael]

Very few can understand how difficult it must be to not be able to compete anymore...especially when you've made it to the highest level. But, coming from someone that watched you in the 2000s, I feel that you are more relevant to the business now than ever. Keep it up Maven! We love ya🤘

[@charaznable6597]

I'm a veteran. your number 1 is what I've lived with. i just had my 8th surgery . i have 3 take discs in my spine and now bulging discs...i have two sons and am disabled its a fight. i hate life but live for them. i used to watch you and an glad you are doing well

[@jerelminter]

Despite all of the difficulties that came from being a WWE wrestler, at least you're the first ever winner of Tough Enough. The man who eliminated Undertaker from the Royal Rumble 02, and got beat up by him, you're a former Hardcore champion, and almost won the World championship from Triple H etc. So nobody could take that away from you, you made your mark Maven !!

[@notaflightreactsfan3706]

Crazy how quick the channel is growing last time I checked we just hit 100k! Great work maven

[@MightyPumaman]

I really admire your humility and honesty. You're not sugar coating it, you tell it as it really is.

[@MrSolidBlakeGaming]

You were and are one of my favorite wrestlers, best drop kick of the business! And yeah Man the pain thing is not a joke. I took a German suplex from a rookie he pulled me wrong, threw me in my shoulder. My left shoulder went out of place. I can even see my bone moved out of place. And it hurts every cold morning I feel it. While I love wrestling, I’m not sure if I will ever come back.

[@turtlebutter6401]

I’m not surprised you’re subscriber count is rising! Very well spoken and intelligent, haven’t aged a bit! The videos are so well edited! See you at a million Maven!

[@devinmckenney2456]

Hi Maven! I was at 90s wrestling con today and I met you and you are one of the nicest wrestlers I have ever met! Thank you for an amazing experience!

[@rayshardsmith2546]

Bruh i knew it was a matter of time before Maven was killing it on the sponsor game … you got a voice and Charisma that would pay a lot money … good to see u cashing in champ

[@koreanelvis]

Living with chronic pain is no joke. I totally understand Maven. Brother, I take 55+ pills a day due to my injuries from my military service. Do I have friends & family supporting me like my doctors keep thinking I do?! Oh, HELL NO!! I thank God for my beautiful and supportive wife!!! When you described your pain, I felt it. It’s what I go through daily. It’s been non-stop for me for at least: about 17-18 years now. I feel you. I feel bad I stopped watching WWE while you were on because I was deployed, but I’m learning a lot and enjoying your content. Thank you; thank you very much.

[@btms9197]

Ayyy here early!! Thanks Maven! You rock! Stay blessed!🇨🇦

[@Mikewilkins69]

I've never seen you wrestle once. Your attitude makes me want to listen to you more. I love it

[@CoachKen10]

I truly appreciate your wisdom and you sharing your journey with us Maven!

[@archabe]

Thank you. Your behind the scenes vids make me appreciate wrestling and wrestlers more.
