Ring of Honor regular Colt Cabana explained how he got into performing standup comedy during an interview with Las Vegas Weekly. "When I wrestle, my style of wrestling is actually pretty comedic and outgoing," Cabana said. "I know I told you that Ring of Honor is a lot more athletic but I have kind of a hybrid of comedy and humorous wrestling along with the athletic wrestling.
"A promoter who had gotten Mick Foley, another comedic wrestler, to do a comedy show asked me if I would do 10 minutes at the start of the show and I said sure. We did the show at the very famous Hollywood Improv and it went over great. It was a big success. It was so successful that we’ve been booking it out as a tour and I’ve been working on my comedy as much as my wrestling now. I have such a blast doing it."

Powell's POV: Cabana, Foley, and Bruce Prichard (a/k/a Brother Love) have been performing together lately. I'm hoping they take their act to the Mall of America in the Twin Cities because it sounds like it would be a fun show. Cabana also spoke about the various injuries he's endured and explained why he rooted for the Super Bowl loser yesterday.
