Thank You For Support In Competition

     Well, I have to really really thank my FAMILY, FRIENDS and also FANS for the tremendous support I received while preparing for my first MABBA Bodybuilding Competition on Saturday, March 23, 2013.  My patient gf Amanda for all of her support.  Ian Birchall, Darren "The Bomb" and Christ Turcotte, you were all a big help and a huge reason why I was able to get into good condition after suffering the back injury.  Along with that I must also thank Elite Sports Injury Clinic's Olivia for helping me make the recovery as well.

     I HAVE TO NOT FORGET to mention SHOWTIME SPORTS SUPPLEMENTS, Darryl Landry and Ivette Landry along with Mike Asiedu for all there advice, knowledge, training and support!  They really are the most selfless people I have met in bodybuilding so far.  Thank you for lending an ear and shoulder during the meltdown points, lol.  I appreciated all of the advice and it helped!
     Everyone who goes through this knows how much of a mental strain it can be.  So for everyone I mentioned thank you for that support as well, in helping me stay confident and strong.  Pretty easy to not give up or quit when you have that kind of support.

     I had a lot of fun this past weekend and met so many nice people involved with MABBA.  The camaraderie I experienced back stage was pretty awesome to experience and see.
     Thanks to Chris V Linton for taking the time with me for the photoshoot with your busy schedule.  You made it really easy and comfortable to be in front of the camera.  Also Redan Miranda for your photoshoot as well, again it was fun and I looking forward to seeing some of the final pictures from each shoot.  You both have a good eye for photography.
     OH!  I have to thank Rod Sylvia for the baking after the show.  Nothing can beat home made Reese Peanut Butter cups!  Grandmother also baked me some as well...I am so set for these!

     I apologize if I left anyone out and please know when I say I appreciate all of my family and friends' support, I really truly do.  NONE of it went unnoticed to me!

     In the next two weeks I will hopefully have some pictures to put up of the show and the photoshoot, here are a couple links to see pictures.  One from Muscle Insider Magazine and one has some shots from one of my shoots:

“TWITTER INTERVIEW QUESTIONS” - @thejoncutler

http://www.twitter.com/thejoncutler

Last week people were asked by @Hot_Wrestlers to submit questions for Jon Cutler to answer, here they are:

1) What's your favorite type of workout you do daily? I suppose for me its just getting my butt to the gym and being physically active…lifting weights, skipping rope, whatever it takes

2) Do you spray tan, or regular tan? Regular tan, never liked the look of spray tans much. Kind of look orange on some people and who wants to look like a carrot.

3) What age when u decided u want to become a wrestler? Hmmm, well some would say when I was like 4-5 years old. When I actually decided to take a shot I was 20 I believe.

4) How is the life after the many months not wrestling? Well, not as banged up so much but pains still there. A little simple…definitely miss the fans and entertaining the crowds. That rush when you come through the entrance is like no other.

5) Other than wrestling, what are you passionate about? Good question, probably bodybuilding or fitness in general and educating youth. Can’t forget the Winnipeg Jets either.

6) What are your plans for your post-wrestling career? You know all I said was it’s my last match, I never said the word “retire” *wink*. Lol, I am still deciding on that right now.

7) What words of motivation would you bring for your fans? If you want something, go for it. You will always have people say negative things…but it’s mostly because they wish they had taken a shot at their dreams. Use it to fuel the fire and motivate you.

 8) Do you still have these killer body & massive thighs? Lol, never thought of myself as having that…and massive thighs, lol…well after playing hockey my whole life I don’t think those are going away anytime soon. Can anyone help me buy jeans?? It can be so frustrating.

9) Did fans still notice you or know you when they see you? Yes, I suppose surprisingly to me, people do. Even when I look like a bum after the gym, I was still recently seen doing some shopping.

10) How is your view to the current WWE product? I am happy for a lot of my bro’s who are now on the mainstream roster and television. I still like to bug my buddy David (Otunga) that I have him on tape saying he is my number 1 fan, lol.

11) What you think of the current product the WWE have to offer for the divas? Being a diva is not just about image anymore. More and more it’s apparent that you really have to be tough and be able to kick some butt to be a diva.

12) Who are the divas with the most potential down there from your point of view? Not sure if you meant current roster or developmental. But for current…Natalya is great and my fellow Canadian Rosa Mendes is still a favorite of mine. Honestly the talent with the diva’s is high and has come a long way.

13) Would you ever pose nude? Lol, now who the heck would want to see that…honestly, lol.

14) Do you still have your trunks? Yes, I still have my gear…somewhere anyway.

15) When yes do you use them sometimes as swimwear? No, just wear the gear for my matches. Recently read a “wear your gear to work thing on Facebook”. I didn’t think that would go over too well at most places, lol.

16) Anybody wanted to buy them from you? Surprisingly to me I have had a couple emails and requests asking yes. Guess the boots are pretty stylish.

17) We know that you quit with wrestling, but would you do some very light fetish wrestling with wearing a speedo? Lol, again…come on who would want to see that. Probably better chance though of me getting back into mainstream wrestling…hope that doesn’t disappoint.

18) Does people/fans came up to you and wanted to massage your body still after the wrestling? I may, at times, have had an offer or two. One thought, free massage…lol

19) Would you wear a tight speedo and do a photoshoot while getting payed for this? I suppose that would not be too new to me. Being in fitness, I would not discount the possibility as I have needed to for sponsorships. Speaking of which, time for a cheap plug of http://www.showtimesupplements.com/ or join the facebook group here http://www.facebook.com/groups/showtimesupplements/

20) Who did you most enjoy wrestling in FCW? It’s hard to say, I had some fun rivalries and matches there with guys like Eric Escobar, Ken Kennedy, Yoshitatsu, Justin Gabriel, David Otunga…just to name a few. There was a lot of talent and good times while I was in FCW.

21) Does someone like you had some groupies when you still were active as wrestler? Hmmmm, well I suppose that would be more of a poll or question for everyone else. I definitely had fans…but groupies…not sure I invoked that kind of reaction from people but hey, weirder things have happened.

22) Any plans in working with a wrestling promotion as creative head near you? I have not really thought about it just yet…guess it would depend, I do miss the creative aspect. But mostly I just miss the fans!

Thank You and The Next Step

Since my last match back in September I have been getting so many emails of support and questions from people. The support has been tremendous as always, yet it seems it can keep surprising me just how much I receive. In the most sincere way I want to thank everyone. I even thought after my last match I would lose some of that support, but to my surprise again, that was not the case.



I was feeling I should say a few things and give a couple answers to questions I have been receiving. Again, the support that is shown keeps amazing me.



To start I really want to thank everyone who has supported me over the 10 years I spent in the sports entertainment business. From day one I felt very fortunate to continuously get so much support and appreciation for my passion in wrestling. The one thing that kept me going I would definitely say was just that support I got. It is the biggest aspect that I find missing, getting to talk to the people and fans at the shows. To hear the crowd show their appreciation for what you enjoy doing while at the same time feeling the same appreciation for them coming to watch the show.



I was fortunate to get to do a lot of things in those short 10 years. Travel and meet so many interesting and nice people through that time as well. I consider myself lucky getting to travel all over Canada, USA and recently in 2011 to Japan. Of course getting signed by World Wrestling Entertainment and getting to perform in front of millions of people on RAW really set the bar high for all of those experiences.



It really showed me after appearing on RAW and getting signed that all those people who said “That will never happen” or “That’s just a dream, not reality”, that they simply were fuel to my passion to succeed. If there is anything I can pass along to everyone is just that, that people can do whatever it is they are passionate about and set there minds too. There will always be those people who say you “can’t” do it, but if you use them properly, then they can be one of your biggest driving factors when attempting to reach a dream or goal in your life. Live your life for you, live for your dreams and do not stop until you get there.

I miss many of the fans and friends I made during my time with WWE. I also miss many of the fans and friends I have made over the years I spent performing independently as well. There are some connections that I know I will keep through the rest of my life and am grateful for those connections I made.

The reason I chose to close the door and start down a new path in my life was made from a personal decision. Along with that decision, I felt that I had accomplished all I was going to be able to. In my mind it was originally more than I thought I could possibly attain. The funny part though, in a lot of ways, it was not good enough in my own mind or as far as I thought I should have got as well. I wish I could give you a better answer than that, for those who asked “why are you stopping wrestling?”


It makes me feel so good when people say “you should still be signed” or “you are so entertaining, it sucks you are stopping.” Receiving so many emails like that from people just make me realize a bit more just how many people supported and do support me.

What is next for me is another question I receive a lot. I don’t have a good answer for you there though at this time. I am still figuring out this next path and have contemplated bodybuilding or continuing with fitness modeling as well. I continue to have great support and sponsorship through Showtime Supplements which is real nice to have. As for 2011, it was such a roller coaster year and I guess its going to take me a bit longer to figure out where this new path is going to lead. Though I know opportunities will continue to present themselves the more driven I am.

I wanted to make sure that no matter what path I take or where life leads me that I made sure to thank each and every one of you who have supported me so greatly. Rest assured I am not going to fade away and disappear. Through my website, twitter, facebook I will make sure to keep all of you supporters informed as to what is coming next for me.

So I want to wish everyone a Happy Holiday season. Please, do not drink and drive and make sure we all have a safe holiday and New Years as well.

In my most humble way, THANK YOU EVERYONE for your continued support and see you all in 2012!

Smash 15 in Japan, one word…Awesome

I was recently in Japan for the first time to take part in SMASH 15, which was their 1 year anniversary show. What a positive experience it was for me. From the moment landing in Japan I was treated with nothing but respect, a respect to the degree I even felt I did not deserve.

As part of the show, there was even a press conference held for those of us on the card for SMASH 15. Again, everyone treated us with so much respect that I was honored to be taking part in this show and to even have been invited to Japan.

Meeting the crew of SMASH was an honor for me and again, everyone was really nice and very respectful (do you see a theme here?). The show included people like Tajiri, Sabu, Ultimo Dragon, Funaki, Akira Nogami, Kushida and that is only naming a few of the great and talented people on the show for that night.

The show started with a heart wrenching and much deserved remembrance of all the people affected by the Earthquake/Tsunami tragedy that struck Japan.


My opponent that evening was Akira Nogami in the opening match of the night. It would prove to be a tough match and skilled opponent, as I ended up losing the match. Akira has put in many years to the wrestling business and still continues to give a lot to it. To say it was an honor to be able to take part in a match against him would be accurate.

I just want to thank SMASH for the opportunity of coming out and working for their company. Also, to the SMASH fans and everyone in Japan, thank you for the tremendous and generous support and respect you showed me. I hope to be able to perform for you again, it would be an honor.

Please continue to help and show your support to those in Japan that need it. One organization that you can give to is Red Cross: http://www.redcross.ca/article.asp?id=38380&tid=001

Here are a couple of website’s for SMASH for those wishing to check out more on this fast rising company:
