A small part in a corner of TH-cam? NO SIR. We love your videos. We love your page. We love your honesty. We love your integrity. Nothing is small about what you’re doing .
i think he says it like that in order to keep staying in this state and not let success get to him because as things move now he is poised for big things just like after he won tough enaugh. now Maven is more seasoned going through life and gained qualities even if he lost some atheleticism. doesnt matter too much because he is inspiring. i think its good that he talks as he talks because he will have phenomenal success having some qualities which are VERY much in need now starting with honesty and integrity. he is tough for aproacing some subjects its very hard to speak in public to so many people and do it with style also. and after i watched him on tough enaugh and what he said, well, he is better than WWE back then he was and he is better now, sure not in showmanship and flashy things but in everything else that matters now even more than back then. he is the right man to lead WWE and its good that he has high ambition high hunger even if he doesnt say it
@@truckersforfreedom4535 Thing is Maven is probably in better shape than most wrestlers from his time. He spent only a few years getting beat up night after night. Maven is in a 2/10 pain every night while guys like Big Show are probably enduring a 8/10 pain all day every day.
Don’t minimize your place in today’s wrestling business Maven… coming from someone who was a massive fan in the late 90’s early 00’s and grew apart from it, your channel has been a major influence in reintroducing me to the product I once loved so much. Thank you brother.
Thank You Maven . My mother is a survivor of domestic violence . I LOVED watching your determination on Tough E Nough ! Watching how the Undertaker did a storyline with you. Please dont minimize your importance in the industry.
For tonight's donation. Thank you! I've been a wrestling fan for 33 years. It has brought me so much joy in my life. I wrote a master's thesis on it. There have been some dark times, with Owen and Benoit coming to mind immediately. Those days were destructive to the industry. But, now, let's be honest, no one should have been surprised by these Vince allegations. Your channel has been a revelation. You love the business and you're honest. You truly do have an impact on wrestling, because you're you. Thank you.
Super respect to you, Maven, for doing this. I am 49. I lost my mother 15 months ago. I can understand your pain; it’s never easy to lose a parent. Keep up the good work.
How can ANYONE hate this new, transparent version of Maven, genuinely the guy you can direct people to for the healthy and wholesome side of interacting with the Internet Wrestling Community. We love you Maven and big respect for donating, doing some powerful work with the hands of Man, love to see it!
Watching now and really glad you addressed this. Your words and the way you convey information is really high level and that's the only reason I personally want to hear from you. Because I respect you a lot, as clearly everyone else does too.
On behalf of EVERYONE in Fargo, North Dakota...we're enjoying a very warm winter, thank you very much! Good video and big fan since Tough Enough! Keep the videos coming!
I really love your content Maven. You are the most genuine person I've ever seen on social media, and I genuinely think you make the world around you a little bit better
I wonder if it's difficult for him to fullfil the fan expectations and always be a perfect role model. I've never seen him say something negative out of emotion, he always is calm and collected and seems to hold no grudges.
Tried staying awake for this. It was 2am start time in the UK. Stayed up until 1.40 and passed out asleep lol watching it morning after. Love the content!
You’re so humble man, and that’s why I enjoy watching you. You never pretended to be someone your not or hyped up your career. You pulled the curtain back on a business that we all enjoy. Keep moving forward Maven, your doing a great job
As a victim of sexual assault, I truly appreciate you giving back to women who have gone through it. Thank you for being proactive in the change we desperately need to see ❤
@DANNYBEEGAMINGG girls who go to Dubai the going rate was 15k American some girl literally posted what those Arab dudes wanted to do western girls and the rates. To be fair I ain't even mad if I got offered 50k cash to be pissed and shit on I'll probably fly over there 2
I grew up watching you and the other amazing guys in the WWE. You guys gave me an escape from reality growing up and I cannot thank you enough. You definitely had a huge impact on me and others I know personally. It gave me the courage to be a small time nobody wrestler in towns near me and I get the same look from people that I was giving you guys. Again, thank you so much. And with you coming out with this makes you very real and humble.
Thanks so much Mav for doing this. One of my best friends since 6th grade took her life in June of 2011 due to being raped by her commanding officer in the Navy. I was in the Army at the time & my NCOs refused to let me go home to get closure. They had no good reason for it, they were just being hateful to the new private because they could and because I was a new private, I didn’t know how to fight it. Then I turned suicidal, ended up with PTSD over it all, and was medically retired out after blowing my knees out. I have arthritis from my back all down to my feet on top of mental health issues. So a lot of the same physical problems you have actually (chronic pain all the time). I am now a 100% disabled veteran. I wish I could give more but I am on a fixed income as most of us disabled vets are. So this is something very near and dear to my heart. I actually missed the livestream because I was having nightmares about her passing. It has been almost 13 years now and that pain never goes away. So this is very near and dear to me. I also have a BA in Sociology from Georgia Southern and volunteered for the battered women’s shelters in Savannah. The stories are truly heartbreaking. Much love and respect Mav.
Hey brother, I'm sorry to hear about your friend, that's terrible and I hate that she had to go through that and that you weren't able to get closure... (not too good at writing this sort of thing, but felt I needed too!) Now, thank you SO MUCH for your service, I'm sorry for what you had to go through in there, and the negative effects it has left you with all these years later. You keep going brother, you keep on keeping on, I may not know you but damn do I appreciate ya!
Look at how you articulated the trail of devastation left by that one evil act (and complicity/sheer cruelty of others), it's heartbreaking and blood boiling at the same time, beyond words, thank you for sharing your story and your bravery
It's almost unheard of to get leave for the death of anyone other than the death of a family member. Your NCO's didn't hate you, you seem to take everything very personally, and at your own detriment. Congrats on the degree and helping women, but it's time to be a victor and not a victim.
@@themobseat the problem is that nothing was going on. Like literally nothing. We were stateside, no deployments were scheduled. My 1st Sergeant and commander were irate as fuck when they found out what happened. 1st sarge literally said “we aren’t in the goddamn mountains of Afghanistan! I don’t care if it was his fucking dog, let his ass go home!! What y’all did was hateful and y’all are getting reprimanded. Now we got a serious fucking issue going on in this company because y’all are fucking shitbags.” He tore them a new asshole and my Commander did too right in front of me. It was some awful shit. They had no excuse to do that to me and I did take it personally. They did it to just fuck with me because I was brand new. Then years later they all got their asses in serious trouble with IG over claims of racism and had a one way ticket out over it. The mess hall was 98% black. Cliques formed and there were a lot of issues that went down. With that situation I largely ignored it all although when they interviewed me and made me give a sworn statement, I didn’t hesitate to throw them under the bus like they would do to me on a regular basis. They didn’t take care of their soldiers and were just fucking sorry. My dad was an NCO in the 1980s and was fucking appalled by the bs that they were doing. NCOs jobs are to take care of their soldiers but a lot of those people refused to do so, even when it meant they would get in trouble. I don’t take a lot of shit personally but that was a very unique situation. I am doing better though now. Figure if the worst that happens to me is night terrors and insomnia coupled with depression and anxiety, I done a lot better than most. I consider myself very lucky and thank God every single day for what I have even with the scars I have from it all. Just wanted to clarify that because yes, next of kin does matter, when you are deployed or there is some shit going down, but that wasn’t the case at all and we had 65 goddamn cooks in there. They didn’t need me there that badly. Something else that both my 1st sarge and commander reiterated because they would often get angry that they never let any of the cooks out of the mess hall for training.
@@geedee1264 we had some pretty toxic leadership back then. I hope the Army has cleaned house a bit, they were working on getting that cancer gone when I was in. I would read it in the Army Times about how the top brass were working hard on new promotional standards and changing the PT test to a Combat one. It seems some of those changes have occurred. I haven’t been in since 2013 and I couldn’t tell you what is going on in there, but I have heard it has gotten a lot better from friends of mine who are still in. The problem was in 2005 they let a lot of people in that should never have been allowed in to begin with. HS dropouts and felons. Pretty much anyone due to severe recruiting issues. Some of my NCOs would even brag about their criminal records as if that got them some sort of Mr badass award. I went in during a very bad time. That being said, I wouldn’t change a damn thing because God has blessed me immensely and I have a great life now. I just got some scars like a lot of people do. All I can do is work towards a brighter future and not dwell too much on the past. I just wanted to share this story to explain why what Mav is doing is near and dear to me. I hope someone finds this inspirational that there is light at the end of the tunnel and I am living proof of that.
I found your TH-cam last week and every day I have been listening to your videos. I love that you just tell us what you have on your mind. I also saw this thing where this guy talked about how you are doing everything correctly on your TH-cam page. I think you are doing great and you are more than just a "small corner". Also when it comes to donations, every bit counts and you should be proud of yourself for contributing. I liked you in WWE, but honestly I have more respect for you now since I have learned more from your videos.
Can't thank you enough for this channel and content. I remember watching you compete when I was in high school. Amazing to finally get to know the man behind the talent.
Thanks for everything maven, you’re a shining beacon in the wrestling community and I’m glad you’re getting the respect you deserve and thanks for doing this to help victims of abuse
Grew up watching you , glad to see you still using your name for good even if you are not in wwe. You have a good way of speaking and makes the listener wanna listen. You would make a great speaking role in wwe or eleswhere on the mic.
I found your channel about a month ago. I think I've watched all of your videos since. I've always been a Maven fan and this channel has only made me a bigger Maven fan. I love how thoughtful and genuine you are. Keep up the good work and keep putting out these great videos Maven. You're a bigger figure in the wrestling community than you think. I also didn't know that Stevie Richards had a TH-cam channel. I went and subscribed immediately! Can't wait to watch his videos. Was a big fan of him as well. I can't donate a lot but I would like to help anyway I can. This kind of shit sickens me to the core. Anyone who takes advantage of someone just because they see them as lesser... It sickens me. I'm happy to hear that you're doing your part in this change. And I'm happy to play a miniscule role in it as well.
Maven, I love how authentic you are, please never stop doing this. I agree with you, I want wrestling to be talked about because of... well, wrestling. Thanks for helping the victims 😄
Hoping you make it back to Virginia at some point for a meet and greet. We miss seeing you in the ring. Maybe WWE will reach out and have you come back at least as an announcer.
Damn, it's so cool seeing you help out Stevie. I subscribe to him and he put out amazing content. So much fun to watch. You and him have one of those channels where you could easily scroll to the first video and watch them all in order and have a great time doing it. Awesome stuff man. Great stream tonight!
This one is for shelter. Thank you for postivity, Maven. As on of the guys in showbiz (as rapper/musician named Agyaani Music ) and wrestling/sports entertainment fan for 2 decades, i understand that show must go on. Let's do something postive let's go.
@@IamRohanAswani I should have clarified.. i can see how that looks like im being jerk .. no disrespect to you. Any amount someone gives out of the kindness of their heart is admirable.
Maven you are extremely inspiring and overall awesome. I have not stopped watching your videos since I discovered you. I’m hoping to meet you someday! Thank you for doing such an amazing thing for such a great cause. You are truly what the world needs. From Stockton, Ca. Angelo
I absolutely love your videos Maven! You’re so real and honest and have such a great insight on everything wresting. Thank you for putting these videos out for all of us.
Thanks for supporting this cause, my wife has unfortunately been affected by this cause. I appreciate you and your videos, many will be affected in a positive way by this movement.
I just subscribed to your channel. I am a 48 year old wrestling fan. I grew up in Fort Worth Texas and being the youngest of an already wrestling fan family I have watched wrestling my entire life. Starting with the local Von Erichs then progressing to the NWA in Atlanta and the WWF. Your insight into the business is fascinating and I appreciate your work.
Yeah this guy is awesome the way how he talks is genuine it's just so cool he talks to you like a real friend tells you it straight up love this guy maven true friend there
Dude, I really think that vou are a lot more important than you think you are. You have such a great voice and I know that there is a really great future for you. I really love and have appreciated your work over the last year or so and you just keep getting better. I know a lot of people can see your unique talent for storytelling and genuineness that is so needed nowadays so I'll continue to pray for you and I'm so positive there are big things coming for you!
I love your channel bro, and I look forward to every video. Great stream tonight it's so nice to see a genuine person on TH-cam tell their stories and be genuine throughout, keep up the good work bro 👊🏽
I have been a fan of wrestling for over 50 years, Adrian Street Razor Ramon and Gray the Hammer Valentine our my favorite, I actually saw Greg Valentine years ago and got his autograph. I just discovered your you tube channel and it has really impressed me. Keep up the great work and God bless you and your family.
This guy is so level headed and I'm here for it! A genuinely nice guy that has humility and not a goody two shoes. Just subbed. I'll donate to the women shelter as well
Legend Maven, you spoke with alot of respect and class, you have a global audience and alot of developing minds watching your content, so any positive light and great messages/charities you can share will lead to other people being kinder in the future. Keep it up man! Also on the subject, it is important we let the businesses know our stance, no tolerance for people preying on people due to economic background or any other reason.
Loved the video Maven, I've been subbed to Stevie Richards channel for a while. Watching his heath journey and his videos on how he breaks down past and present moves showing safe and unsafe work in the ring.
Woah! As a Nova Scotian, it really made my day to hear one of my favorite wrestlers not only acknowledge my home province, but to speak so highly of it. You should totally make the trip up here, we're actually a sort of hot spot for famous people looking for vacation spot cause of how easy it is to move about freely without being hassled.
I just found your channel yesterday and been going through your channel and came across this Livestream. As a survivor of every kind of domestic abuse, thank you for everything,💜
About to give this a watch but before I do. I just wanted to say how much we all love your videos Maven. You have reignited many peoples love for WWE. Me personally I watched WWE up between 2005-2012. Watching these videos made me realise how big a fan I was and still am… You haven’t even been on TH-cam 1 year yet and you already have 250k + keep going man.
Loving your channel Maven. Been waiting for this stream to drop, unfortunately couldn’t watch it live because of work but I’ll watch it now. Looking forward to hearing your opinion on the matter. 💯👌🏻
Not a small part in the corner of youtube Maven. You are on my main page every single day and I never miss a video. Old or new I am always watching. Thank you l
Maven, please understand that your are truly special. I’m not even a wrestling fan. I’m a hardcore MMA fan and found your content. I must say I enjoy your content extremely. You can tell how genuine and naturally entertaining you are. New fan for life here sir. Thank you for your time and honesty.
I hope it isn't true but if it did happen I wouldn't be surprised by some of the stories that were told by the wrestlers who worked for Vince said some days he was nice and some days he was cool and btw maven you were my hero back in the day got me into wrestling I was 4 years old when I first watched your hardcore title win I was cheering keep in good health man
This is the first time I've commented on your videos. I started watching your videos on TikTok a few month ago. I'm interested to hearing what you have to say. You are easy to listen to and you are a genuinely nice person. Thank you for making videos about your experiences and thank you for sharing them with us.
Thanks for covering Maven. I always enjoy how you tell things straight up. I also want to second how nice Stevie is. I've met him a couple of separate times at indy shows/conventions and he's always been the coolest guy. Once he talked to me and my friends about the business for like 15 mins and when we went to pay for a picture he told us to forget it an waived the fee.
You aren’t a small part Maven. I haven’t cared about Wrestling since I was 15 over two decades ago. But I recently got back into WWE specifically because of you. Your ability to tell stories and share the passion about the hobby is infectious.
Thank you so much for doing this Maven. I really appreciate that you took your time to get your thoughts together before speaking on this. It’s such a difficult subject and it has been discouraging to see how some fans and even former wrestlers view and value women. True colors shine through in situations like these and I’m glad to find out you truly are a decent person
I’d love to see you do wrestling reviews Maven, the way you tell stories and explain your thoughts is something I consider to be magical. Whether it’s old ppvs, todays show or your own matches.

I knew this vodeo was coming. I am very happy that you expressed yourself how you needed to for us. We all know this was very hard for you. Love ya bro.
Dude you are amazing, I love how intellectually you sound when you speak. I can tell you speak from your heart in everything you say. I'm actually kind of new to the channel, But oh I have memories of you when I was in 6th grade rooting for you on tough enough 🖤👑🖤 much love brother keep your head up and I'm going to keep supporting your channel I love these stories and you're so good at telling them
Yo maven, i stumbled upon your videos without being that much of a wwe fan but your content made me like them. I saw that apart from a wrestler you are a teacher too. You seem like a caring person that wants to help others who also addresses his own mistakes when he made them. People don't often do that. Maven content is top notch for youtube these days. It's real and honest!
@@FullMetalXVI think considering her to be a victim actually hurts actual victims of sexual assault. I know victims of sexual assault and they were never a willing participant. They didn't consent and come back the next day for more as long as they were getting money.
I recently lost my job, and of course right after purchasing my first home 😅 so I won't be able to donate.. Maven I'm running out of ways to describe how awesome you are! Keep up the great work, we're rooting for ya 👏
Maven you have been such a positive energy to the wrestling community and I really want to thank you for that. It's been much needed for years now and this has quickly become my favorite channel period. Keep up the fantastic work and God bless ❤️
I haven’t watched wrestling since like 2007 but I’m a huge fan of this channel. Brings me back to the old days. Thanks maven!! Never stop! You are made for this, such good content all the time.
I was low key waiting to see how long it took for this video had to come out , figured maven had to do this video it is too important , love the content maven god bless my brother
Just recently found your channel and it's quickly becoming a favorite. Nobody else is doing anything so personal. Don't get me wrong, I watch Taker and a few others podcasts but I like how personal and honest your channel is. I've been a wrestling fan since maybe the 70's or whenever my uncle would watch it. Those were my real life Supermen. The wrestlers, not the management, were my heroes from all organizations. Keep making gold
Thank you for this Maven, you're doing amazing, it blew my mind reading the documents and made me sick. I'm happy to see how we're trying to come together and make sense of this situation
We need more humans like you on TH-cam---- Everyone keeps praising you for being so great and amazing, but you're human I get it. I admire your honesty and how you seem to be at peace right now. I love it.
Sir, the very fact that you do not ask for subscribers and likes like 99% of youtube creators, you already had my respect, now I love the hell out of ya! You have reignited my love for wrestling and the business, can't wait to see you in the rumble! If not this one then the next, love you mave
I felt the same way regarding the allegations, surprised and not surprised. It's a disgusting and absurd situation, but this live stream was great and it's a healthy way to address everything coming out. Keep up the good work brotha!
Maven Maven MAVEN!!!! I truly cannot thank you enough for your content. You are so genuine it shines through. Feel like your apart of the family!!! Lol. Keep going my friend thank you for what you do. You’re a great part of this community. Thinking of you and your mom too seeing it was her 20 year anniversary of her passing. My mom means everything to me so sending you mad love my good sir. ❤️
I stumbled upon your channel yesterday, and started binging shortly after. I'm more and more impressed with you after every video of yours I watch. Opening up publicly about trauma and coming forward with allegations such as these, especially when levied against someone with money and media influence like Vince, is often an incredibly difficult thing to do. This is why it's important to not minimize or be dismissive of those who are brave enough to step forward. On the other hand, the idea that a person is innocent until proven guilty is the cornerstone of the American justice system, and, alongside being tried by a jury of one's peers, is absolutely critical in keeping that system both fair and more difficult to abuse or corrupt. The delicate balance you've struck between these two ideals once again demonstrates your thoughtfulness and ability to think critically about complex and nuanced subjects, as well as to discuss them with class and decorum. In short, even though I haven't really watched wrestling in a couple decades (long enough ago to have learned about you through your TH-cam channel rather than on TV,) I'm glad the algorithm served me a video about something I haven't been into in a long time, and that I took a chance on a video by a former WWE star I'd never heard of.
Haven't watched wrestling since attitude era, but my interest and nostalgia in professional wrestling and WWE has been rekindled since discovering your channel. Love your content brother!
I've been watching your videos, I appreciate your point of view tremendously. You have a very smooth way of talking about stories etc. You are a positive energy I think Wrestling needs regularly, I believe you've got an element of magic. Laughter is contagious, and it gets everybody involved, just like wrestling strives to do each night. signing off; you are doing wrestling a great service, you are a legend sir. Both in and out of the ring I'll cheer for you!
A small part in a corner of TH-cam? NO SIR. We love your videos. We love your page. We love your honesty. We love your integrity. Nothing is small about what you’re doing .
i think he says it like that in order to keep staying in this state and not let success get to him because as things move now he is poised for big things just like after he won tough enaugh. now Maven is more seasoned going through life and gained qualities even if he lost some atheleticism. doesnt matter too much because he is inspiring. i think its good that he talks as he talks because he will have phenomenal success having some qualities which are VERY much in need now starting with honesty and integrity. he is tough for aproacing some subjects its very hard to speak in public to so many people and do it with style also. and after i watched him on tough enaugh and what he said, well, he is better than WWE back then he was and he is better now, sure not in showmanship and flashy things but in everything else that matters now even more than back then. he is the right man to lead WWE and its good that he has high ambition high hunger even if he doesnt say it
@@truckersforfreedom4535 Thing is Maven is probably in better shape than most wrestlers from his time. He spent only a few years getting beat up night after night. Maven is in a 2/10 pain every night while guys like Big Show are probably enduring a 8/10 pain all day every day.

Maven, you are BLOWING UP.
Don’t minimize your place in today’s wrestling business Maven… coming from someone who was a massive fan in the late 90’s early 00’s and grew apart from it, your channel has been a major influence in reintroducing me to the product I once loved so much.
Thank you brother.
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank You Maven . My mother is a survivor of domestic violence . I LOVED watching your determination on Tough E Nough ! Watching how the Undertaker did a storyline with you. Please dont minimize your importance in the industry.
I agree!
same here
Was waiting for this
For tonight's donation. Thank you!
I've been a wrestling fan for 33 years. It has brought me so much joy in my life. I wrote a master's thesis on it. There have been some dark times, with Owen and Benoit coming to mind immediately. Those days were destructive to the industry. But, now, let's be honest, no one should have been surprised by these Vince allegations. Your channel has been a revelation. You love the business and you're honest. You truly do have an impact on wrestling, because you're you. Thank you.

Well written! Makes me happy to be a wrestling fan knowing other fans are being just as passionate about this.
Hello, sir what grade did you end up getting on your masters thesis?
I wrote a paper about "kayfabe" being a modern example of folklore!
Super respect to you, Maven, for doing this. I am 49. I lost my mother 15 months ago. I can understand your pain; it’s never easy to lose a parent. Keep up the good work.
How can ANYONE hate this new, transparent version of Maven, genuinely the guy you can direct people to for the healthy and wholesome side of interacting with the Internet Wrestling Community. We love you Maven and big respect for donating, doing some powerful work with the hands of Man, love to see it!
Love you Maven, always been a fan since day1. You proved that a "regular person" can achieve their dreams. Sorry i missed the live.Thanks!
Watching now and really glad you addressed this. Your words and the way you convey information is really high level and that's the only reason I personally want to hear from you. Because I respect you a lot, as clearly everyone else does too.
On behalf of EVERYONE in Fargo, North Dakota...we're enjoying a very warm winter, thank you very much! Good video and big fan since Tough Enough! Keep the videos coming!
“You don’t say…”
Do you have that stupid accent just like the tv show ?
I really love your content Maven. You are the most genuine person I've ever seen on social media, and I genuinely think you make the world around you a little bit better
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I wonder if it's difficult for him to fullfil the fan expectations and always be a perfect role model. I've never seen him say something negative out of emotion, he always is calm and collected and seems to hold no grudges.
@@MavenKHuffmanMaven I wish you where in WWE again.
Tried staying awake for this. It was 2am start time in the UK. Stayed up until 1.40 and passed out asleep lol watching it morning after. Love the content!
You’re so humble man, and that’s why I enjoy watching you. You never pretended to be someone your not or hyped up your career. You pulled the curtain back on a business that we all enjoy. Keep moving forward Maven, your doing a great job
Ayy! I'm from/still live in Nova Scotia. Was not expecting the NS shoutout but that was awesome. Thanks Maven and keep up the great work!
As a victim of sexual assault, I truly appreciate you giving back to women who have gone through it. Thank you for being proactive in the change we desperately need to see ❤
lol suuuure you got assaulted
It’s all accusations. She received so much money from vince for consensual fun.
@@paulwoodford1984 you clearly haven't read the court documents. who lets someone defecate on them consensually?
Do u want to get a second assault
@DANNYBEEGAMINGG girls who go to Dubai the going rate was 15k American some girl literally posted what those Arab dudes wanted to do western girls and the rates. To be fair I ain't even mad if I got offered 50k cash to be pissed and shit on I'll probably fly over there 2
Hope I'm not too late to donate a little for the cause. Love the channel dude, keep it up.
I grew up watching you and the other amazing guys in the WWE. You guys gave me an escape from reality growing up and I cannot thank you enough. You definitely had a huge impact on me and others I know personally. It gave me the courage to be a small time nobody wrestler in towns near me and I get the same look from people that I was giving you guys. Again, thank you so much. And with you coming out with this makes you very real and humble.
That's so cool man hope you're still wrestling
Thanks so much Mav for doing this. One of my best friends since 6th grade took her life in June of 2011 due to being raped by her commanding officer in the Navy. I was in the Army at the time & my NCOs refused to let me go home to get closure. They had no good reason for it, they were just being hateful to the new private because they could and because I was a new private, I didn’t know how to fight it. Then I turned suicidal, ended up with PTSD over it all, and was medically retired out after blowing my knees out.
I have arthritis from my back all down to my feet on top of mental health issues. So a lot of the same physical problems you have actually (chronic pain all the time). I am now a 100% disabled veteran. I wish I could give more but I am on a fixed income as most of us disabled vets are. So this is something very near and dear to my heart. I actually missed the livestream because I was having nightmares about her passing. It has been almost 13 years now and that pain never goes away. So this is very near and dear to me. I also have a BA in Sociology from Georgia Southern and volunteered for the battered women’s shelters in Savannah. The stories are truly heartbreaking. Much love and respect Mav.
Hey brother, I'm sorry to hear about your friend, that's terrible and I hate that she had to go through that and that you weren't able to get closure... (not too good at writing this sort of thing, but felt I needed too!)
Now, thank you SO MUCH for your service, I'm sorry for what you had to go through in there, and the negative effects it has left you with all these years later. You keep going brother, you keep on keeping on, I may not know you but damn do I appreciate ya!
Look at how you articulated the trail of devastation left by that one evil act (and complicity/sheer cruelty of others), it's heartbreaking and blood boiling at the same time, beyond words, thank you for sharing your story and your bravery
It's almost unheard of to get leave for the death of anyone other than the death of a family member. Your NCO's didn't hate you, you seem to take everything very personally, and at your own detriment. Congrats on the degree and helping women, but it's time to be a victor and not a victim.
@@themobseat the problem is that nothing was going on. Like literally nothing. We were stateside, no deployments were scheduled. My 1st Sergeant and commander were irate as fuck when they found out what happened. 1st sarge literally said “we aren’t in the goddamn mountains of Afghanistan! I don’t care if it was his fucking dog, let his ass go home!! What y’all did was hateful and y’all are getting reprimanded. Now we got a serious fucking issue going on in this company because y’all are fucking shitbags.” He tore them a new asshole and my Commander did too right in front of me. It was some awful shit.
They had no excuse to do that to me and I did take it personally. They did it to just fuck with me because I was brand new. Then years later they all got their asses in serious trouble with IG over claims of racism and had a one way ticket out over it. The mess hall was 98% black. Cliques formed and there were a lot of issues that went down. With that situation I largely ignored it all although when they interviewed me and made me give a sworn statement, I didn’t hesitate to throw them under the bus like they would do to me on a regular basis. They didn’t take care of their soldiers and were just fucking sorry. My dad was an NCO in the 1980s and was fucking appalled by the bs that they were doing. NCOs jobs are to take care of their soldiers but a lot of those people refused to do so, even when it meant they would get in trouble.
I don’t take a lot of shit personally but that was a very unique situation. I am doing better though now. Figure if the worst that happens to me is night terrors and insomnia coupled with depression and anxiety, I done a lot better than most. I consider myself very lucky and thank God every single day for what I have even with the scars I have from it all. Just wanted to clarify that because yes, next of kin does matter, when you are deployed or there is some shit going down, but that wasn’t the case at all and we had 65 goddamn cooks in there. They didn’t need me there that badly. Something else that both my 1st sarge and commander reiterated because they would often get angry that they never let any of the cooks out of the mess hall for training.
@@geedee1264 we had some pretty toxic leadership back then. I hope the Army has cleaned house a bit, they were working on getting that cancer gone when I was in. I would read it in the Army Times about how the top brass were working hard on new promotional standards and changing the PT test to a Combat one. It seems some of those changes have occurred. I haven’t been in since 2013 and I couldn’t tell you what is going on in there, but I have heard it has gotten a lot better from friends of mine who are still in.
The problem was in 2005 they let a lot of people in that should never have been allowed in to begin with. HS dropouts and felons. Pretty much anyone due to severe recruiting issues. Some of my NCOs would even brag about their criminal records as if that got them some sort of Mr badass award. I went in during a very bad time. That being said, I wouldn’t change a damn thing because God has blessed me immensely and I have a great life now. I just got some scars like a lot of people do. All I can do is work towards a brighter future and not dwell too much on the past. I just wanted to share this story to explain why what Mav is doing is near and dear to me. I hope someone finds this inspirational that there is light at the end of the tunnel and I am living proof of that.
Always respect your transparency, keep it up!
Thank you for donating to this cause. Here’s my contribution
I found your TH-cam last week and every day I have been listening to your videos. I love that you just tell us what you have on your mind. I also saw this thing where this guy talked about how you are doing everything correctly on your TH-cam page. I think you are doing great and you are more than just a "small corner". Also when it comes to donations, every bit counts and you should be proud of yourself for contributing. I liked you in WWE, but honestly I have more respect for you now since I have learned more from your videos.
Can't thank you enough for this channel and content. I remember watching you compete when I was in high school. Amazing to finally get to know the man behind the talent.
Thanks for everything maven, you’re a shining beacon in the wrestling community and I’m glad you’re getting the respect you deserve and thanks for doing this to help victims of abuse
Grew up watching you , glad to see you still using your name for good even if you are not in wwe. You have a good way of speaking and makes the listener wanna listen. You would make a great speaking role in wwe or eleswhere on the mic.
I found your channel about a month ago. I think I've watched all of your videos since. I've always been a Maven fan and this channel has only made me a bigger Maven fan. I love how thoughtful and genuine you are. Keep up the good work and keep putting out these great videos Maven. You're a bigger figure in the wrestling community than you think.
I also didn't know that Stevie Richards had a TH-cam channel. I went and subscribed immediately! Can't wait to watch his videos. Was a big fan of him as well.
I can't donate a lot but I would like to help anyway I can. This kind of shit sickens me to the core. Anyone who takes advantage of someone just because they see them as lesser... It sickens me. I'm happy to hear that you're doing your part in this change. And I'm happy to play a miniscule role in it as well.
Maven, I love how authentic you are, please never stop doing this. I agree with you, I want wrestling to be talked about because of... well, wrestling. Thanks for helping the victims 😄

Love the channel Maven!!! I watch every show I can! You seem very genuine and honest. Can’t wait to watch the next one. Stay well and on TH-cam!
Damn, it's so cool seeing you help out Stevie. I subscribe to him and he put out amazing content. So much fun to watch. You and him have one of those channels where you could easily scroll to the first video and watch them all in order and have a great time doing it. Awesome stuff man. Great stream tonight!
This one is for shelter. Thank you for postivity, Maven. As on of the guys in showbiz (as rapper/musician named Agyaani Music ) and wrestling/sports entertainment fan for 2 decades, i understand that show must go on. Let's do something postive let's go.

I absolutely love your videos Maven! You’re so real and honest and have such a great insight on everything wresting. Thank you for putting these videos out for all of us.
Hi Maven a big thank you for this channel. Your content is refreshing and engaging to watch. All the best to you. Looking forward to more.
Love the channel maven. I’ve been having some rough days but your videos really make the day a whole lot enjoyable. Keep up the awesome work.
Praying for ya… and so honored we can help some! 🙏🏽
Thanks for supporting this cause, my wife has unfortunately been affected by this cause. I appreciate you and your videos, many will be affected in a positive way by this movement.
I just subscribed to your channel. I am a 48 year old wrestling fan. I grew up in Fort Worth Texas and being the youngest of an already wrestling fan family I have watched wrestling my entire life.
Starting with the local Von Erichs then progressing to the NWA in Atlanta and the WWF.
Your insight into the business is fascinating and I appreciate your work.
Yeah this guy is awesome the way how he talks is genuine it's just so cool he talks to you like a real friend tells you it straight up love this guy maven true friend there
Thank you for supporting the women's shelter. 💙
🙏🏽🙏🏽… THANK YOUUU!!! This will go directly to it!
That’s real
Women get astronomical amounts of support for everything. Men get almost no supports for anything.
a womens shelter connected to wwe sounds like another trap to prey on white females
Dude, I really think that vou are a lot more important than you think you are. You have such a great voice and I know that there is a really great future for you. I really love and have appreciated your work over the last year or so and you just keep getting better. I know a lot of people can see your unique talent for storytelling and genuineness that is so needed nowadays so I'll continue to pray for you and I'm so positive there are big things coming for you!
Finally getting to watch this stream. Maven you rock. 3rd generation fan of 35 years. You are one of the best people to work. Period. Keep it up dude
I love your channel bro, and I look forward to every video. Great stream tonight it's so nice to see a genuine person on TH-cam tell their stories and be genuine throughout, keep up the good work bro 👊🏽
I have been a fan of wrestling for over 50 years, Adrian Street Razor Ramon and Gray the Hammer Valentine our my favorite, I actually saw Greg Valentine years ago and got his autograph. I just discovered your you tube channel and it has really impressed me. Keep up the great work and God bless you and your family.

Cheers Maven. Great cause brother! Ray in Australia.
Legend Maven, you spoke with alot of respect and class, you have a global audience and alot of developing minds watching your content, so any positive light and great messages/charities you can share will lead to other people being kinder in the future. Keep it up man! Also on the subject, it is important we let the businesses know our stance, no tolerance for people preying on people due to economic background or any other reason.
Loved the video Maven, I've been subbed to Stevie Richards channel for a while. Watching his heath journey and his videos on how he breaks down past and present moves showing safe and unsafe work in the ring.
You're so chill to listen to! I love to play games while listening to you in the background!
Woah! As a Nova Scotian, it really made my day to hear one of my favorite wrestlers not only acknowledge my home province, but to speak so highly of it. You should totally make the trip up here, we're actually a sort of hot spot for famous people looking for vacation spot cause of how easy it is to move about freely without being hassled.
I agree. Come on down Maven, we'll hit up the Cabot Trail and find a mean Surf and Turf somewhere
I just found your channel yesterday and been going through your channel and came across this Livestream. As a survivor of every kind of domestic abuse, thank you for everything,💜
You‘re a real one, Maven. You have my respect, brother. God bless you, never change!
This really strikes the right tone. Really good content on this channel.
About to give this a watch but before I do. I just wanted to say how much we all love your videos Maven. You have reignited many peoples love for WWE. Me personally I watched WWE up between 2005-2012. Watching these videos made me realise how big a fan I was and still am… You haven’t even been on TH-cam 1 year yet and you already have 250k + keep going man.
Loving your channel Maven. Been waiting for this stream to drop, unfortunately couldn’t watch it live because of work but I’ll watch it now. Looking forward to hearing your opinion on the matter. 💯👌🏻
Your content is awesome Maven. You're a great human! I wish I would have caught this live!

Not a small part in the corner of youtube Maven. You are on my main page every single day and I never miss a video. Old or new I am always watching. Thank you l

@@MavenKHuffmanHi Maven! Love your videos, keep it up bro!
@JeffWeselyan I mean are you dumb?
I want a magazine to write about this Maven's stream because this is how you put back a positive light over wrestling 🥰
Who the fuck still reads magazines
It's not a magazine it's a clip!!! Can't even escape this on my wrestling channels
Took me a second but I got there 😂
This is the first time I've commented on your videos. I started watching your videos on TikTok a few month ago. I'm interested to hearing what you have to say. You are easy to listen to and you are a genuinely nice person. Thank you for making videos about your experiences and thank you for sharing them with us.
Thanks for covering Maven. I always enjoy how you tell things straight up.
I also want to second how nice Stevie is. I've met him a couple of separate times at indy shows/conventions and he's always been the coolest guy. Once he talked to me and my friends about the business for like 15 mins and when we went to pay for a picture he told us to forget it an waived the fee.
Great initiative - and thanks for the videos.
You aren’t a small part Maven. I haven’t cared about Wrestling since I was 15 over two decades ago.
But I recently got back into WWE specifically because of you. Your ability to tell stories and share the passion about the hobby is infectious.
that's egotistical of you i don't get how one fan makes u a big part of wrestling thats not much value bruh
Thank you so much for doing this Maven. I really appreciate that you took your time to get your thoughts together before speaking on this. It’s such a difficult subject and it has been discouraging to see how some fans and even former wrestlers view and value women. True colors shine through in situations like these and I’m glad to find out you truly are a decent person
I’d love to see you do wrestling reviews Maven, the way you tell stories and explain your thoughts is something I consider to be magical. Whether it’s old ppvs, todays show or your own matches.

Thank you Maven, you really are such a good dude to follow on these platforms 👊
I stumbled upon your channel yesterday, and started binging shortly after. I'm more and more impressed with you after every video of yours I watch.
Opening up publicly about trauma and coming forward with allegations such as these, especially when levied against someone with money and media influence like Vince, is often an incredibly difficult thing to do. This is why it's important to not minimize or be dismissive of those who are brave enough to step forward.
On the other hand, the idea that a person is innocent until proven guilty is the cornerstone of the American justice system, and, alongside being tried by a jury of one's peers, is absolutely critical in keeping that system both fair and more difficult to abuse or corrupt.
The delicate balance you've struck between these two ideals once again demonstrates your thoughtfulness and ability to think critically about complex and nuanced subjects, as well as to discuss them with class and decorum.
In short, even though I haven't really watched wrestling in a couple decades (long enough ago to have learned about you through your TH-cam channel rather than on TV,) I'm glad the algorithm served me a video about something I haven't been into in a long time, and that I took a chance on a video by a former WWE star I'd never heard of.
Subscribed to your channel! Been watching for some time now I love the honesty and the inclusivity you bring out to your audience !👏🏼 Thank you Maven
Haven't watched wrestling since attitude era, but my interest and nostalgia in professional wrestling and WWE has been rekindled since discovering your channel. Love your content brother!
Now is the best since attitude/ruthless aggression era

Thanks for this stream Maven. Best of luck to you in the future👍🏻
I've been watching your videos, I appreciate your point of view tremendously. You have a very smooth way of talking about stories etc. You are a positive energy I think Wrestling needs regularly, I believe you've got an element of magic. Laughter is contagious, and it gets everybody involved, just like wrestling strives to do each night. signing off; you are doing wrestling a great service, you are a legend sir. Both in and out of the ring I'll cheer for you!
You are a awesome young man. Never change who you are
