Buff Bagwell Reveals He Is “Seven Months Clean” After Battle With Addiction

Wrestling veteran Buff Bagwell is “clean” after spending years of his life battling with substance abuse.

Bagwell has spent years dealing with addiction and in addition to working with WWE Hall of Famer Diamond Dallas Page, entered rehab last year.

Speaking to “Wrestle Binge,” Bagwell spoke about facing addiction and revealed that he has been ‘clean’ for over half a year. He said,

“I’m seven months clean, which is the most important thing, man. My sobriety at this time has been an eye-opening thing for me and really, really been life-changing for me. My recovery too. Motivational stuff is what I wanna do. I want to give back to those people that I remember were digging for me, and I wanna show them there’s a way out of this mess of addiction and there’s a way out easily.

“If I can do it, anybody can do it. I really believe that with all my heart. Paying back is the key. But at the same time, man, I’m seven months clean. With that said, I have got a new thing coming up in April and after that, I’m going to be back in the ring again.”

The five-time WCW World Tag Team Champion also expressed his desire to be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame.
