Former WWE star Maven recently took to an episode of his Ask Me Anything show on his YouTube channel, where he talked about a number of topics including Goldust (Dustin Rhodes) prepping him to take the Shattered Dreams maneuver.

Maven said, โ€œI can tell you, I remember the very first time I had to take the Shattered Dreams I can remember gold dust or Dustin prepping me during the day exactly what to do and how to take this move. Youโ€™re, in essence, sitting on the turnbuckle and when he comes in, rares back, and delivers the kick, the sheer viciousness of this move is actually in Dustinโ€™s approach, itโ€™s in how he sets you up. Itโ€™s in how you look helpless sitting there, like youโ€™re just filleted wide open just waiting to be kicked in the family jewels, but once Dustin delivers the kick he actually kicks by the bottom of the turnbuckle. Iโ€™m not gonna say you donโ€™t feel anything, you do. You feel something but nothing, and I mean nothing, compared to if he were to kick you that hard without hitting the turnbuckle first. More than anything, youโ€™re feeling the vibration of it. Of course, heโ€™s a professional, he knows exactly how to administer a kick to the marbles without separating the marbles.โ€
