Jackson’s vision is to use his Masters degree in Sports and Exercise Science to make training and functionality better for wrestlers. He revealed this during a sit-down interview on Mike Axler’s Ice Cream Hour Podcast.
Despite being in a relationship with the ‘Nightmare‘ Rhea Ripley for two years now, Demetri Jackson has never tried to use her as a way to get into the WWE or elsewhere. Jackson has worked hard despite almost no bookings in the COVID-19 era.
‘The Action Man’ even made an appearance for AEW on AEW Dark in August last year in a tag team match against the Best Friends. Apart from wrestling, Jackson spends his time training alongside Rhea.
