You know, every morning that I wake up...I realize that being World Champion is a gift. And let me be the one to tell you I'm loving every minute of it!

I wanna be remembered for my hard work that I've done for over 25 years. Winning championships, making money, being a star, all the luxurious things...they don't count. What counts is being able to open up a path for the new generation to come in and continue to innovate and evolve. I'm just very happy to be a pioneer.

Every day that I bring this World Title home with me, I realize it's a gift. It's a blessing. And this? This has been the biggest, the BIGGEST ride of my life.

I just want to say one thing...Thank you Eddie!

I'll fight anyone, at any time!

If there's one thing I do know, it's that I'm living my dream. Estoy viviendo mi sueño! I feel like I'm on top of the world right now.

I pinned Kurt Angle two weeks ago in that tag match...so...I think I've proven that I can hang with the Olympic Hero.
