In the scene, Randy the Ram cries, exposing to his daughter the emotional place he is in. The emotional burden of a family was more difficult to face than the physical pain of wrestling, so he left her, and threw himself entirely into a career that required no emotions, only physical strength and endurance. Now, he confesses, he is a broken hunk of meat, and he doesn't want to be alone.
