This kind of ties in with the other post, but is an entire interview with Cabana published by the Huffington Post today:

Colt Cabana has one of the most unique jobs in the world: comedic pro wrestler. When he's not busy dishing out punches and bodyslams for rabid crowds, he's making them laugh with his patented brand of slapstick. And this week, he's got to perform in front of one of the most intimidating crowds in the world: the Gathering of the Juggalos, the yearly summer music festival hosted by the notorious hip hop act, the Insane Clown Posse. Thousands of fans with painted faces will be heading to the sweltering heat of Cave-In-Rock, Illinois, for five days of Faygo soda, nudity and illegal substances -- and it's Cabana's job to play the villain as a marijuana-hating police officer.

The proud Chicago native has developed a eclectic resume; he's a onetime WWE superstar who has carved out his own independent path (but he's still best buds and former roommate of current WWE Champ C.M. Punk). When Colt's not busy earning the ire of Juggalos, he's got an incredibly full plate: he hosts the Art of Wrestling, a long-running podcast considered the "WTF" of the wrestling world; he runs the "so bad it's good" $5 Wrestling, an MST3K-style show; films the WWE-parody web series "Creative Has Nothing For You"; and he fights around the world, competing for the NWA World title one week and flying down to Tijuana to get spun around by Mexican luchadores the next. And on top of all that, he still finds time to ice down injuries and hit the Chi-Town stage doing stand-up and improv.

The Huffington Post spoke with Cabana to find out how one becomes entrenched in the Juggalo entertainment family. He revealed what its like to have bodily fluids hurled at you, how one balances comedy with fighting and explained why wrestling is an artform that can entertain everyone from the Juggalos to the Japanese.

Love colt, dislike the fuck out of punk. Colt should be ashamed to be part of someone who is now king of the things he hated on in his infamous "pipebomb"
