My days of being a full time wrestler are over. Nothing wrong with that, that's just the general progression of your career and your life.

Fake is not a word I like to use because there's nothing fake about what I do. It's a show, it's a predetermined outcome; we're putting on a television drama, action, comedy, whatever you want to call it - but it's not fake. Fake would be if I was just about to take a body slam, and my stuntman did it. Fake would be if I was going to take a chair shot to the head, and the chair was made of rubber. I'll tell the world that it's a show, but I hate the word fake. It's such an unfair term to us.

Live events are notorious for being pressure free. Stress free. It's all about just doing the match. Doing what you feel.

If you stick around too long, people go on looking for the next thing.

It so cliché to say some guys and girls need to step up, but there can be bigger stars and bigger names when people get their chance.

When you get some success, you want more. When you get one mountain climbed, you want to climb the next one.

A live performance is the same no matter what genre it is. Wrestling, rock 'n roll, hosting, acting - it's the same thing.
