“Like most of the movies I have participated in before, it’s not a far departure from my actual self. TJ is a Special Forces, hand-to-hand combat expert.”

I think if Donald Trump won, I would move to Canada.

The cutthroat part of it is that professional wrestling has no union. There are a number of people that are taken advantage of on a daily basis.

I believe that it was a testament to the change of power from the company to the fans because the more the fans ate it up, the more the company gave them what they want.

I am always a competitor and my wife and son have never seen me wrestle.

At the end of the day you go out and do your job and follow your directions.

Adam [Sandler] is a good basketball player, so he is a natural athlete, he worked with Sean Salisbury to make his footwork and delivery smooth, and he did a great job.

Georgia Dome was a pretty big eye opener that I had something kind of going in the right direction. It seemed like a movement, and I was greatly appreciative for the chants and the signs.

I’ve known Mark Hunt for a long time, and I’ve known Brock [Lesnar] for a while. I think that it’s a very interesting match-up. I think it’s good on the UFC for making that match-up.

I had never imagined myself doing [wrestling]. Once I came to the realization that it was a possibility, I just tried to concentrate on what I thought people would enjoy.

I am busy right now with my family, let alone all my other projects. It’s an opportunity if it presents itself.

Sometimes my natural instincts take over and I just go overboard.

You wrestle one night, get up the next morning and fly out to the next city.

I really don’t have a favorite team.

Pardon me, not to sound elitist, but I wanted to put something together that I would enjoy. I thought at that time, what satiated me, what interested me, what intrigued me.

I shaved a lot off of a lot that I saw in that I like to be less is more and make everything count and not give anyone anything extra. I was what you see is what you got. It was organic. I came up with the persona. The persona is me, coupled together with a lot of my interests.

At this time, the only thing that would get me back in the ring is something that would positively impact those in need. If selling out another major event would allow me to bring a ship full of supplies to hand out to those in need, I’d say that would be very significant.
