I made my TNA debut at the Manchester Arena TV Tapings, which have just aired on Challenge TV in the UK and Spike TV in the US. Watching it back was incredible. I remember the roar of thousands of my own countrymen.

We are currently just hours away from the biggest night of four people's careers - the night when either The Blossom Twins, Marty Scurll or I will win a contract to live out our dreams as a professional wrestler in the United States.

On Saturday October 13, the night before TNA's biggest PPV of the year Bound For Glory, I shook hands and spoke with the man I had idolised my whole life. As expected he was larger than life - his one hand covered my whole arm when I shook it!

It is currently New Year's Eve 2012 and, as I sit writing this, most of you will already be tucking into a nice pint and wishing your nearest and dearest a "Happy New Year". This is a time to make that new start and venture into the 'unknown' that is 2013.

Eleven years ago, I made the decision that I wanted to be a professional wrestler like my boyhood hero Hulk Hogan. However unlike Hulk and the other global wrestling superstars of the 1980s and 1990s, I'm just 5'4". I'm 10 stone when my wallet is full. NO CHANCE you are saying?
