When you're wrestling, it's such an amazing sport. I love it. I loved that I came from that background.
When I first came into the WWE I enjoyed working with Candice Michelle, a girl who was a model and seemed to live a carefree life and worked really hard to become a WWE Diva.
I'm a professional wrestler at heart, and I miss it.
You can't just learn wrestling overnight.
I wrestled 23 straight years all over the world.
Savio Vega kept pushing me, pushing me, as he was teaching me, too, how to be a heel and things. And how to... 'Let's just try this tonight: just, we'll lock up, you'll go behind me, rub up and down my chest.'
I was always a fan of wrestling, right from the time I was nine or so. But eventually I decided I wanted to do professional wrestling myself, not just watch.
First and foremost, that was always my passion: I wanted to wrestle, but unfortunately, it took me down a road that I can't do that anymore.
At one time, I wanted to be a WWE wrestler. I still do. I want to go in the ring once and mess around and jump off the ropes and do a Stone Cold stunt.
I actually use Randy Orton as an example to my son because he wants to start training in January. My son is a big kid - he's 6'1", 205 - and I insist that he must watch and learn from Randy's style.
I couldn't really get a grasp on wrestling at a young age. I knew it was what my parents did, and they fought people. It scared the crap out of me, so I thought, 'No, I can't do that. I'll get beaten up!'
Know what is in your heart. But definitely go to school and learn as much as you can, and if wrestling is still what you want, find a good wrestling school and kind of learn as much information about it as you can. If I did it, this tiny thing, anyone can do it.
I was the first WWE developmental talent. When I moved to Connecticut to start training, I had no idea what wrestling was other than what I saw as a fan.
Leo Burke was an unbelievable trainer. Him and Tom Prichard. Tom Prichard was not a big guy. And I learned a lot from him.
I got into wrestling when I was four years old.
I would have to say that Canada definitely produces the best wrestlers; I don't know why. I think Canada is a big wrestling country, and there are a lot of guys who are interested in wrestling in Canada.
I was an amateur wrestler, which I loved. It was my passion, but I started really late; I was a junior in high school when I began.
We have regularly won medals at all tournaments and I think after 'Dangal,' the craze for wrestling increased among the girls.
Wrestling is very physically demanding. You can be in great shape and still not be in ring shape.
If you're in the WWE, it's like show business boot camp. You learn a little bit about everything as far as show business is involved.
I was a fanatic about wrestling when I was a kid.
I spent most of my time wrestling looking up at the lights.
Why can't I beat up John Cena?
From what I've read, CM Punk is like a sponge when it comes to training.
I'd love to teach Roman Reigns how to work. Just kidding.
