Sean surviving addiction and rebuilding his life is such a feel good story, if you told me 15 years ago that he would live to be a grandfather I wouldn't have believed you. What a strong human.

[@breddyjulian1878]

So in 2008, two years before he retired, you didn't believe he'd live to be a grandfather?

[@muhammadHassan-kj1jy]

​@@breddyjulian1878People die at young ages unfortunately. Especially those who have strong addiction problems. No one knows when they will go

[@markc9949]

I met Sean this past weekend at a Fan Fest in PA. He was just as nice to the average dude as he is to Chris. He spent a good 8-10 minutes chatting with me after autographing a figure for me. He's so friendly and humble. He has a wild history both personally and professionally, I'm so glad to see he's doing so good.

Really launched his career, put him on the map and it was against one of his closest friends who we all will forever remember so fondly. Rest in Paradise Scott

Sean is such an inspiration for anybody who is ever gone through hard times in their life. It's awesome to hear that he found another puppy. People don't realize that dogs are like an empathetic emotional filter they help process your bad emotions and they know that they're doing it

[@Y2JLionHeart]

X-Pac and guys like him are great because they aren't selfish and have the right psychology. I always liked the way he worked and what he explained makes a lot of sense. He wasn't out there whipping giants off the ropes and whatnot. And his kicks always looked really good. Everything he did was solid. Underrated chops, too.

[@wc76]

A true Legend! Sometimes I'll ask my mom if she remembers who my favorite wrestler was growing up and every time she gets it right when she says, "1 2 3 Kid!"

[@treybrannon4964]

This was a great interview. So glad to hear Sean is in a great place in life. Thank you Sean for all the amazing moments that helped define the business and my youth. God bless ya Kid.

[@TrueNomadSkies]

I always love seeing people who lived through the wrestling business being healthy and happy, especially guys & girls from the attitude era.

[@jimbo_1312]

Always happy to see Mr Waltman. He's one of my all-time favourites, definitely on my Mt Rushmore. And I could listen to the dude talk for hours. I'm glad he's sorted himself out and is finally getting the recognition he deserves.

[@heelpayne420]

Terrific interview! You always make your guests feel relaxed and they open up for a candid interview. I always wanted to do this for a living, interview wrestlers!

Excellent interview Chris. You are one of the best! Sean Waltman is an icon in the business. So glad to hear that he is doing great!

[@robcharette1915]

Sean was underrated for to long. He now seems to be getting the well deserved recognition he earned. This is a great interview.

[@-lazyguyver-6821]

I've loved Waltman & his whole career. Eddie v Syxx ladder match in WCW is legendary. I was an in the dark fan back in those days & didn't know the backstage goings on. I knew I loved him & popped like a mark when he showed up in the nWo. Then papa Eric didn't see his potential & axed him for getting hurt & reinvented himself in DX. I'm so glad he's doing great now & kicked all the self destructive habits. We're pulling for you, brother, & all on your side.

[@rfe8nn2]

I wonder if WCW tried to countersue WWE due to there lawsuit in which WWF claim the likeness of Scott Hall and Keven Nash.

[@-lazyguyver-6821]

@@rfe8nn2 WWF did have the fake Razor & Diesel after all. Their lawyers probably focused on the adjective. What a pittance! Haha.

[@GregLionProductions]

My favorite wrestler. For a guy with so many problems, I never saw him not give a good, honest and friendly shoot interview. His body language and choice of words, he really seems to be doing better than great. Ps the uncle kracker theme was the best one imo

[@antonion.5970]

Chris, you are amazing! Great interview with Sean Waltman and awesome work with Denise Salcedo too… you are by far the nicest dude in the wrestling industry (and probably top 10 in the world too 😂).

Great interview i remember watching him as 123 kid then Syxx then coming back as X-Pac he's been 1 of my favorites since i was a kid i would like to see him wrestle one more time for sure.

[@jcol317]

Has anyone ever researched why so many wrestlers eventually get that same vocal inflection? That gravel like XPac Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold, Jake Roberts, Vince McMahonetc. None of them had it in the day. No other athletes get it

[@BishopWalters12]

Jake always had it, but my guess is it's connected with some kind of roid or HGH abuse.

[@michaelzimmerman8285]

They yell a lot, also. Ruins the vocal cords after years and years

Sean Waltman was what I like to call a damn natural when it came to the wrestling business! He could wrestle circles around the best when he was just a teenager and yes he was blessed with great friends but that says more about him simply knowing the business he made the absolute best of his situation and he destroyed the glass ceiling! I hope he has one more banger before he is done! Kudos to this guy!

[@thickerconstrictor9037]

He used to be on the show that I did almost weekly in 2010 2011 so I spent a ton of time with them and he is one of the coolest guys. Glad to see he has got himself so healthy. Honestly even back then when he was partying he never looked out of shape. Like he was fucked up but he was still in the gym all the time and in phenomenal condition. But you seem fully healthy like this is great

[@jameslonano5659]

When guys like (RIP) Scott Hall and Flair say that Kid can really go in the ring, that is the highest praise an in ring performer can receive- the respect of his peers. Great interview and thanks for the years of superb entertainment.

[@comfortablynumblbg]

I'll never forget in 1998 when he came back to WWF. He put in work. And when he finally laced up the boots. 5 star matches on Raw with D Lo Brown and The Rock. I'll never forget the 98 WWF title match with the Rock in late 98. Jim Ross had me thinking he could win!

'X-Pac Heat' being a commonly known term is so crazy because literally everywhere Ive seen him, hes been over. From WCW to WWE to TNA and even to Wrestling Society X.

[@tspawn35]

I totally thought X-Pac took the Bronco Buster from Hakushi and added his own twist on it.

[@joshuagumpert8910]

He worked great as the underdog small guy, by using those lethal kicks and strikes. Booker T, X PAC, and RVD always had those incredible kicks.

[@jackedbyjade]

Love seeing him in a good place.

[@erichzann2966]

I just met Mr. Waltman this weekend and have to say that I agree, he looks good. He's always been one of my favorites in the best time in wrestling, both him and Road Dogg. I'm happy for him and I'm thankful of the time he gave me when we met, it can't be easy meeting random strangers and making a connection.

[@carloslozada470]

Good interview glad Shawn is happy

[@KayFabe87]

Sean was always one of my faves to watch in the 90’s after seeing him in Global Wrestling as the Lighting Kid, and his Indy matches with Jerry Lynn. His match with Bret Hart was incredible and his match with Eddie Guerrero on the NWO Souled Out PPV in 97 was great as well. Unfortunately it sounds like the concussions may be catching up with him in his speech delivery and his ability to articulate his thoughts. Hope he is well.

[@muhammadHassan-kj1jy]

Its possible. But some people just simply take a while to get their thoughts out. This was a very introspective interview and its notbthe first rime ive seen psople take their time to speak about themselves in these kinds of interviews. Especially those who have had a hard life with addiction

Bret Hart also really enjoyed that match with Sean. He pointed out that the crowd was pretty dead at the beginning because it seemed like a throwaway time filler AKA everybody in the audience knew the WWF wasn't going to put the belt on the 123 kid. So it was an uphill battle in the beginning. But they got the crowed into it and loving it. Brett also mentioned that Sean never gets credit for how good he really was in the ring The absolute biggest compliment the two of them could get is that Jim Ross has said numerous times that this was the greatest match done for regular TV that he had ever called.

[@KaptainKlips]

X-Pac was one of the few wrestlers I had multiple figures of as a child in the 90s. The others where Austin and 'taker. Much love dude!

For someone who has his own podcast X-Pac says "uhm" and "you know" a lot! You know? Still, this man tells a great story. Paired up with the awesome CVV, and we got a banger of an interview!!!

[@Darknova67]

While I definitely think he seemed off this podcast and Chris needed to fill a lot of the gaps and push the episode along. I feel like most of the You knows are excusable as half of them are him starting to explain something that Chris would already know about.
