For years, Tucker Knight competed in WWE as one-half of Heavy Machinery until his release from the promotion in 2021. Speaking to KPTX, Knight, real name Levi Cooper, reflected on his time as a WWE Superstar.
\"It was a cool way to spend my 20s. It was a really special thing to do. I mean, it really is an artform. They [WWE] encompass a ton of stuff. You\'re a live-action stunt performer.\
One of Cooper\'s favorite perks from his time in WWE is that he was immortalized in action figure form. Though his days in WWE are over, Cooper still owns his action figures which have proven popular with his children.
\"These [figures] were the most surreal stuff. Honestly the coolest part is I get to see my kids play with it. They call it \'Toy Daddy.\'\
Cooper\'s children would play a huge role in him ultimately leaving pro-wrestling following his WWE release.
\"Traveling before I had kids was 95% fun. But after I had my daughter, it became really difficult emotionally. I wasn\'t prepared for how difficult that was going to be.\
Today, Cooper is using his amateur wrestling experience as the coach of Skyview High School\'s Wrestling team in Vancouver, British Columbia. While his days appearing on WWE programming may be over, the former Superstar is pleased to continue to be an inspiration to youngsters.
