"When I went out and got this tattoo. It's my mom's birthday in Roman numerals; she is the
most important person in my life and I try to make her happy every day. I wanted to have
that as a reminder in my everyday life."

"I heard the tale of Abe Assad venturing on a quest for the ultimate (pinning) move. He
traveled far and wide in search of the Homecoming Queen, the one who knows all. He

the ultimate pinning weapon. In gratitude for teaching him the move, he honored the
Homecoming Queen with a pin in the Midlands semifinals."
