Mike Santana has brought positivity to his balcony.
In addition to the latest booking updates, Mike Santana’s social media followers can also expect to see weekly photos from atop his New York City balcony. As Santana provides followers with a glimpse into the view below him, he is also providing a spotlight to his vast collection of mugs, many of which feature empowering quotes.
During a recent interview with WrestleZone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard, Santana opened up about the motivation behind these inspirational posts.
“I have no idea [where the idea came from]. I did it one time, and then people were like, ‘This is cool.’ I have so many mugs. Then my grandmother started getting me mugs. My daughter gets me mugs all the time. So I was like, ‘Okay, well, let’s make this a thing.’ Like you said, I’ve always been one to share positivity and motivation as much as I can,” Santana said.
“The internet and that [Twitter] app in general just always spews so much negativity. So, let me be a little speck of positivity within all that mess. I rarely respond to trolls and stuff like that. There’s no need. I’m the type of person, I’m not going to give energy to someone that I’m probably not going to see in person and confront in person, so it’s not even worth wasting my time. Social media to me is a tool to market yourself, a tool to get things out there. Everything else is just crap.”
Santana confirmed that his grandmother, who supplied him with some of the mugs, has also been following this chronicle on social media.
“It’s funny because my grandmother gets me a few of them, and she goes on Twitter or whatever. She’ll look at which one I’m having today, and she’ll text me. She’s like, ‘Oh, I remember I got you that one or whatever.’ Coffee mugs all day,” Santana said.
