In the same video, the powerlifter also recounted the hardships he and his other half went through.
He revealed they were poor for many years and had to rely on his parents for groceries. They didn't have their own home and lived with his wife's mom.
The WWE star then explained that he would probably have become more self-destructive and toxic if he did not have his spouse by his side.
She admittedly became his backbone during the struggling period. He also mentioned he was glad he stuck by his spouse's side.
While it is not sure when Bugenhagen and his wife married, it is public knowledge that the pair are parents to at least one daughter. They welcomed their daughter in December 2015.
