He graduated from The Woodlands High School in 2001. Mitchell played four years of varsity American football in high school, and received a full scholarship to Northwestern State University. During his freshman season, however, he was expelled for getting into a fight. Mitchell then spent two semesters at Blinn College in Bryan, Texas.
In 2007 he and his girlfriend, Torrie Wilson, started a business together, called "Officially Jaded", a fashion boutique. The couple began dating in mid-2006. Mitchell has since said that he feels that he was prevented from becoming successful in WWE when he began dating Wilson, as he "was a young, fresh meat WWE guy who 'didn't deserve' the most beautiful diva". The couple separated in 2011.
As a professional wrestler, Mitchell suffered numerous injuries, including damaging a disc in his neck and injuring his knee, as well as breaking his nose three times within one month.
