WWE is one of the biggest platforms in all of sports entertainment. Several superstars have appeared on the show and gained tremendous exposure, leading to a much more diverse career than wrestling. Examples such as John Cena, Dwayne Johnson, Batista, and Diamond Dallas Page.

While the others found and explored a career in Hollywood, DDP took it a notch higher and used his skills and popularity in helping the masses. He started a foundation where he improved the lifestyles and health of people via the medium of yoga.

However, not everything was served to DDP on a golden platter. He had to work hard to make his way through. Prior to making DDP yoga popular, the former wrestler appeared on the popular American show, Shark Tank, for grabbing an investment opportunity.

Page recently took to Twitter to announce how the rejection he received in 2014 changed his business and career for good. He used sarcasm and claimed the rejection was the best decision the sharks took on his behalf.

DDP yoga is one of the most promising and rising health care channels. With a massive subscriber base of 626k subscribers, and a total reported revenue of $10.7 Million. A rejection that he received nine years ago turned out to be a wonderful lesson for him. Ever since that day, DDPYoga has been responsible for turning the life of several people, especially some of his former colleagues.
