The YouTube description for the video reads like this: "We're kicking off our smorgasbord of Steve-O content with Ronda and Trav giving the Jackass GOAT a tour of their sustainable farm Browsey Acres. He's also working on some gnarly cauliflower ear. Walk along with Ronda, Trav, and Steve as they meet the chickens, goats, donkey and the newest addition to the farm – Porter the bull. Steve-O is famously a self-described "bleeding heart veggie guy," but Ronda and Trav share a lot in common with Mr. O. The entire tour features an interesting discussion on the ethics of meat and working towards a cruelty-free and healthier, self-sustaining lifestyle. GOAT Walk and more coming with Steve-O soon!"

- WWE and Seth Rollins are really pushing his new "Monday Night Messiah" nickname now. Rollins recently changed his Twitter bio and it now reads like this, "Visionary. Leader. Monday Night Messiah."

Furthermore, WWE Shop has released a new "Monday Night Messiah" t-shirt that has a religious feel to it.

Rollins re-tweeted the graphic used on the shirt and wrote, "This is my new favorite thing."
