He said there are many things he wishes a DVD could come out with deleted scenes because Tough Enough was success for the USA Television.

Jack asked what was Stone Cold like? A.J. said he was very intense and when in the ring he was his trainer. When he drove for the first time that was the first time they had contact with him.
