Insight with Chris Van Vliet
Raven's Most Hardcore ECW Moments, Early Onset Parkinson's, WrestleMania, TNA, WWE Run

You got to wear or have a bunch of ring jackets because to be a star, you got to look like a star.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

But Raven's character wouldn't care about looking like a star.

I had to get an anti-star look that still was a star character that made me look like a star.

And so...

So I figured with the concert shirts, I'd have a different shirt every day, every match, so I could have a variety without having to change my jacket.

And plus, I had no chest.

As a bodybuilder, I always wanted to be a bodybuilder, but I never had the genetics for it.

And so I wore...

So I had a thick waist, no abs, flat chest, but I had big arms and shoulders, you know, at the time, you know, until injuries took their toll.

But that's a long story.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

But, yeah, so I figured I'd wear a concert T-shirt, sleeves cut off, I could show off the arms.

You want to accentuate your strengths and hide your weaknesses.

And I hid my weaknesses.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

And another weird thing about that is I had really good legs, like really good thighs, but I had such a thick waist that it took away from it.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

But my thighs were really good.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

But for the look, I needed to cover them because if I would have wore short shorts, I'd look like, you know, like Stevie Richards.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

Right.

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

So sometimes you have to pick one or the other, you know what I mean?

Insight with Chris Van Vliet

So, you know, but it's such a, it's, it's such a unique thing trying to figure out the, trying to get the most out of everything you can with the least amount of effort.

You know, no one cut a promo like you in the night.
