On a recent edition of the “Black Rasslin’” podcast, AEW wrestler Ricky Starks discussed his mindset for approaching the unexpected challenges that arise in his career, how he adapts to the situation, and more.
Starks said, “Be like water. You have to be like water. I think each experience that I’ve gone through is a great lesson that needed to be learned for me in the process. I’ll tell you this, out anybody in my position, they probably would have failed two years ago. They probably wouldn’t have made it as far. I’m still here. This is my third year. Seems like we go through it every year in the same type of season for me. I’m still making it happen. That’s one thing that I’m really proud of. Despite everything that I feel and everything, go up just to come down type of thing, I still made it through.
He continued, “I still have managed to stick it through and have people still believe in me and still have people say, ‘No matter what, he still is trying.’ That’s all you can ask for at the end of the day is to give it your best effort. To give anything your best effort is to live in the best version of yourself truly, and to do anything less, you ain’t doing no favors for anybody.”
Starks currently holds the AEW World Tag Team Championships with Big Bill.
