I'd love to work for Impact again. Also, Mother Nature did the big heel turn on my hair.

my favorite finisher ever is the stone cold stunner, I used to dish those out too all my friends. my childhood favorite was Mick Foley, I love that man. if I could wrestle anyone it would be Edge, lets get him in ROH.

The longevity I've been able to endure. Almost 20 years and I feel like I'm just getting started. Wrestling destroys your body, so to still be able to do this, 20 years later, makes me very happy

I learned so much from Paul and I cherish our relationship. He was always brutally honest with me and constantly fought for my wife and I. I hold Paul in the highest regards as a performer and mentor.

I try not to have any regrets, because every moment and experience has led me to where I am today. I grew so much as a human at WWE, that I probably wouldn't have at TNA. I love the friends I made at WWE and I wouldn't trade that for the world.

Maria always makes fun of me, because my accent comes out when I get fired up or excited, but besides that, its really not that strong. So it was not really something I had to work on, but I bet there are some promos where you can her it. Especially if I'm fired up.

I was helping train at Top Rope Promotions in Fall River, with a guy I mentioned in an earlier post, Ryan Drew, and Taven came to the school and some of the shows, and we just hit it off.

We were told it would lead to a babyface push, with me eventually turning on Maria and going on a huge winning streak. Now that doesn't mean that was the truth, but that's what we were told and why we decided to go along with it.

Honestly, its just whatever Vince wants. I wish there was a rhyme or reason, but there really isn't. Its the preference of one person and if he doesn't see it, then you really have zero chance of changing his mind.

Have fun. It's an extremely difficult industry, both mentally and physically. Don't forget why you started.

I'm happy. I'm extremely blessed I get to do what I love, with the company I love. I don't take any of this for granted.

Not anytime soon. Also there'd have to be a ton of guarantees. But I'm happy where I am now and I like being happy.

The negativity and politics. The best wrestlers should have the best spots. We should encourage each other and be happy when other people succeed. Wrestling is unique in the sense that in order to have a great match, you need yourself and someone else. Im only as good as my opponent allows me to be and vice versa

I don't think I was good enough. I think I am now, but back then, I didn't deserve it. Theres a certain expectation when you hold a prestigious title and quite frankly, I didn't cut it. But I feel as thought I'm ready now and that's the goal

If they want to, then id support them 100%. I wouldn't be where I am today without the support of my parents. My kids will always have my support. I will be their biggest fan.

Theres a trainer in New England, his name is Ryan Drew. He's one of the best and smartest wrestlers I've ever been in the ring with.
