Cerebral Palsy hasnt stopped Gregory Iron from doing anything in life including pro wrestling. Some might remember Greg as the wrestler that CM Punk and Colt celebrated while Punk was WWE Champion. Colt and Greg sit down to talk life and wrestling.

Great interview/discussion. The proportion of wrestlers who come from homes with troubles seems to be very high. Is this because the profession is an escape into a different community and persona? Do actors/actresses also come disproportionately from families with troubles?
The first time I “saw” Mr. Gregory was several months ago, when he faced Icarus in Chikara. I was very surprised by his history.
And everytime I see something about him, I have more and more respect for him. I wish I could have the same amount of cohones he has to do things in life. He is a winner, for sure.
Thank you both for this piece. It was wonderful.
I forgot to say: he truly is an inspiration.
Gregory Iron to the WWE!

Michael Tarver is an asshole if thats what happened. I’m glad WWE buried him.
Check out the handicapped heroes the greg iron story… The documentary will be released on DEC 15th
Trying to catch up on all the episodes I’ve missed in the past few weeks. This was a really good one. Gregory’s story is amazing.
Thank you Colt for interviewing Greg. I’ve been a wrestling fan since 6 and I was born with CP.I’ve been though many hardships and wrestling has always been there though it all. Greg inspires me.
I must show thanks to this writer just for rescuing me from such a scenario. As a result of looking through the the net and coming across principles that were not beneficial, I figured my life was gone. Existing without the presence of solutions to the difficulties you’ve fixed through your main post is a serious case, and those that might have adversely damaged my career if I hadn’t come across the website. Your actual know-how and kindness in controlling a lot of things was vital. I don’t know what I would’ve done if I hadn’t discovered such a step like this. I can at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks for your time very much for your impressive and sensible guide. I won’t think twice to propose your blog post to any individual who should get care on this situation.
