Jelly Roll Reveals Great Advice Charlotte Flair Gave Him

Jelly Roll has revealed the advice Charlotte Flair gave him while he was training for his in-ring debut.

Speaking to Chris Van Vliet on his INSIGHT podcast, Jelly Roll revealed that he couldnâ€t hide the fact that he was hurt while training at the WWE Performance Center for his in-ring debut at SummerSlam. He then revealed the motivational advice he got from current WWE Womenâ€s Tag Team Champion Charlotte Flair.

“Charlotte Flair told me this. It was so cool when she came back from her injury. You got to remember, Iâ€m at the PC suffering, so everybodyâ€s having to watch me just limp around. Iâ€m clearly not able to hide the fact that Iâ€m hurt.â€

“Charlotte gave me the best advice. She walked over. She said, ‘Baby, Iâ€m gonna tell you something. When I came back from my injury, it bruised my back. Iâ€ve wrestled my whole life, youâ€re fine.†And I was like, Thank you.â€

Jelly Roll Also Revealed How He Learned The Technical Aspects Of In-Ring Competition

Jelly Roll then spoke about how he was told many athletes drop out prematurely due to the intense training, and how he was taught the technical aspects of competing inside the ring.

“Iâ€ve never done nothing this physical. So Iâ€m like, dude, am I way weaker than I thought I was this whole time? And Iâ€m just like, mad soft. Then theyâ€re like, No, dude, and they started telling me about how many athletes drop out. Athletes that are getting paid good money to train there every day. So they kind of put me through that for like, an hour and a half.â€

“Youâ€re just holding the middle rope, swinging back. And theyâ€re showing you how to tuck your chin and not throw your head. You wake up the next day with a pulsating headache all the way down through your neck and spine and forehead. And they tell you exactly where the headache is going to be, and when I woke up the next morning, and they said, ‘Tell us how you feel tomorrow and the day after, if this is what you want to do.†I text them two days later and said, ‘Iâ€m all in.†They were like, ‘How sore?†I was like, ‘Pretty sore, but not sore enough to detour me.†Well, thatâ€s step one.â€
