During a recent appearance on WWE El Brunch, WWE Superstar Otis commented on teaming up with Chad Gable in recent months and how his attitude has changed.

According to ‘Dozer’ himself, the ‘old Otis’ is not gone for good. He said,

“This is my first winter living in Minnesota without the beard, so the whole double chin and my neck was freezing. It’s a cold winter. When it was minus 30, it was like, ‘Oh, the beard is gone.’ I’m outside playing with my dogs and they’re having fun because they have the fur and are playing in the snow. Definitely missed the beard when it came to winter. I didn’t think about that until it happened. It’s a lot cleaner, a nice to have a little bit of scruff here and there. The beard, I see pictures of me back in the day with the beard and I’m going, ‘Man, that thing was bushy.’ I guess I never trimmed it. It was not exactly very clean, good looking beard. I definitely miss it for winter. Right now, it’s all simple. The old Otis, here and there, when it comes to the crowd, basically, it’s a lot different to be a hated man these days in the ring. At the same time, that’s what the Alpha Academy does, get under people’s skin. The old Otis, he was a good man. Carbs, sodas, barbeque, a nice lady by his side. Right now, it’s just all business. I think he’s just gone away by the side. I wouldn’t say I miss him, but I wouldn’t say he’s ever going to be gone away.“
