Page is now on a mission to help kids with reading disabilites.
He's written a book and has started an organization called Bang it Out for Books, and has teamed up with the Kid's Book Club, and Scholastic Books. They donate money from Page's autograph sessions at schools around the country to buy books. Page feels strongly about helping kids read. He has a common reading problem called Dyslexia, and had a fear of reading in public. He is the only pro wrestler in history to ever be invited to the White House lawn and help with the President's Easter Egg hunt and read to the kids on the lawn.
