Personal life

In early July 2006, a man named James Wilson claimed that Doane and his fiancee, Mickie James were in a car when he approached them for an autograph. According to Wilson, James was friendly and signed his poster but Doane grabbed it and sped off, tearing the poster and causing him to fall and injure his shoulder. As a result Doane was charged with assault, battery, and vandalism. WWE officials offered Wilson autographs, but he refused and said that he wanted money from Doane.

Doane has a signature designed tattoo on his upper bicep.
