Former WCW star Marcus "Buff" Bagwell" posted a video on YouTube to address his recent arrest. The Georgia Gazette's arrest report claims that he was recently arrested for a DUI but Bagwell said that he is on day 446 of sobriety.
Bagwell said that it's hard to deal with emotions when you are no longer using substances and that now you are "forced" to deal with it. He said that because he's clean, his temper has gotten out of control and he's had "a couple of setbacks" during the DUI program because of his temper.
He added that when he traveled, he didn't log where he was when he was at the Dallas airport and his temper got him into trouble and that's when it got out that he relapsed, when in fact he did not and what happened was that "it was a DUI court sanction." He continued, "I'm really having to deal with my temper for the first time in my life and it's really tough."
Bagwell said "I may be going to jail for my temper" but he did not relapse and he is still clean and sober. He thanked Diamond Dallas Page, Steve Yu, and the team at DDP Yoga for helping him get clean and back in the gym after dealing with a 20-year addiction. "
