KearnyHub.com featured an interview with TNA star Abyss today to promote their house show this Sunday in Kearny, NE, where he will face Matt Morgan. The article noted that The Monster's Ball veteran actually has a master's degree in marketing and sports administration from Ohio University. Despite his mask, he noted that fans usually recognize him based on the tattoos he sports. In regard to the physicality of the business, he commented, "It's an athletic event, and what we're doing in the ring takes a lot of athleticism and it comes with a lot of risk. We can be hurt badly at any time, and guys do get hurt all the time. But on the other end, it's also that element of theater, that element of drama that kind of adds to it. That's where the entertainment value kind of comes in to play. So, I think it's definitely a mix of both."
