Make no mistake about it: when you're on the road Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday - on the road 300 days a year - you have to be a certain type of person.
There are months when I'm on a plane every day!
People in the CIA, they marry each other. They're like actors! We have to travel without much warning to far-flung places, and it's very hard to communicate what our experiences are like to those in the outside world.
I have to travel a lot for work.
We're on the road 300 days a year. There's no recovery time. It's a test of your physical and mental endurance.
You are on the road so much when on the main roster that you don't have time for anything else. But wrestling will always be a huge passion for me.
Since I travel to the four corners of this planet for work, I don't need sun holidays or that kind of thing.
It's a hard life as a professional cricketer. It's not as easy as everyone makes out. To survive you need a tough hide.
There is no way I could've been so durable playing in the Western Conference. The travel is nuts.
Being an F1 driver is a crazy job but not what everyone expects. My year consists of 20% driving and 80% media, marketing, and travel.
I think marriage and athletes is a bad combination.
You can't have a family when you're playing because you're away from home so much. So believe me, I won't be pitching forever. I won't make it to 300 wins or anything like that. No way.
I must have played every college and university at least three times, and that goes for most of the clubs. I'd be on the road six days a week, go home and change bags, and then be gone for another six days.
As an actor, you travel so much. It isn't great for a marriage.
I don't care where you go or what company you work for - and I've pretty much worked for them all - WWE by far is the most brutal road schedule in the world. It takes a special kind of individual to navigate that and be able to thrive in that environment. It's a challenge that I've enjoyed.
I started doing [acting] for a living, no one really warned me about the amount of traveling I would do. I always thought everything was shot in Los Angeles.
It's an amazing life, don't get me wrong. But being a professional athlete, is… is not as glamorous as everybody sets it out to be.
It's pretty much impossible to do anything when you're in WWE because you're so busy constantly.
That's actually the main reason I decided to leave WWE: the brutal schedule that you have when you work for a company like WWE.
We are on the road 250-280 days a year at least, and it's something that, if I have a wife and kids at home, I don't know if I could do it.
