Barbed-Wire Bats To The Dome? Carrying A Machine Gun For Two Tours? That Aint No Problem For Steve Maclin

I got to sit town with rising wrestling star Steve Maclin. Steve served four years in the Marine Corps with 2nd Battalion 8th marines from 2007-2011 and did two tours to Afghanistan in 2009 and 2011. While I always say that my job in the Marines, being a dog handler, was the best job in the Marnie Corps, machine gunners can feel that way. I mean, who wouldn't want to lug around at least 50-60lbs more than everyone else for the same distance and same operations? Me. I wouldn't. But, I'm glad Steve did. 

His transition from the Marines to pro wrestling is interesting. He used what he learned in the Marine Corps to help fuel his intensity in the ring. That all started when he got to Pro Wrestling boot camp. Listen to his story here.
