In an interview about the book, Bautista claims "I do not want to tell my story except to be honest," and that "you have to go through three sets of lawyers: Simon & attorney attorney, WWE lawyer, my lawyer. can be sued for the simplest. "One source of controversy is the mention of a book about Chris Benoit, who is almost completely removed for double murder and suicide. Bautista replied, "I love that person, I hate what he does, but it does not wipe it out of my life, I struggle to keep him there and happy they do it." When asked about his ex-wife, Angie, he said: "[We] have really gotten close again, which we really have not had for years.I really learned a lot about him, and he learned a lot about me from reading "He really sees things from a different perspective from reading a book. So it must be therapeutic ".
He has many tattoos, including a large dragon on his back, a red Kanji on the upper left bicep that says "Angel" in recognition of his ex-wife, Angie, the signature design on the upper right bicep, and the small sun on his stomach. which circles his navel. He also has tattoos on his sleeves of Filipino and Greek flags.
