During a recent appearance on the “Insight with Chris Van Vliet” podcast, WWE Hall of Famer Brian “Road Dogg” James commented on his battles with addiction over the years and trying to make amends with wrestlers he may have rubbed the wrong way.

Additionally, The Road Dogg admitted to being jealous of The Rock and revealed where their relationship stands now.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On how he was jealous of The Rock and made amends with him: “In the program of recovery that I follow, there was some ‘making amends’ parts to it, and so I had to make that list. The Rock was one for me. I was just really mean to him because I was jealous of him. He was a threat to me because he could do everything I could do, but he looked freakin’ great too … And at that point in my life, that bothered me, you know what I mean? I was afraid of that … So I treated him horrible in front of everybody all the time, and I went to him and he said, ‘Thank you, that’s nice of you to say.’ I don’t know if he forgives me, that’s none of my business, but I had to do it to clean up my side of the street, as we say.”

On the last time he saw The Rock: “He came to the Performance Center when I was down there and spoke and watched some matches and stuff. We still get along.”

On how making amends helps him: “It helps me. It helps me lay my head on my pillow at night, and the more I dig into myself and find out what things were my fault, the easier it is to fall asleep at night.”
