“Yeah, most likely not. And I am in such a very good scenario the place I can say that proper, like I’ve a enterprise, I’ve 10 staff. My guys and I, we go to work each single day making an attempt to do our present, we’ve got a merch enterprise that does nicely, like actually every thing I’ve mentioned in promos is true, proper, so it is, I’ve a… I am in a really fortunate scenario for every thing that I have been in. And I perceive that lots of skilled wrestlers aren’t, proper, so I am in a scenario the place I do not say I can decide and select, but it surely actually is that if if one thing will get pitched to me that I am not 100% cool with, I’m very a lot in a scenario the place I could possibly be like no, no, it is okay. I admire that.
“We’ll see if one thing else occurs down the street and I simply, I am not. I am unable to learn, like I am not a very good reader. Okay, I’ve actually by no means learn a ebook in my whole life and that’s not one thing to brag about. Clearly I do not assume children ought to do this. I’ve gotten actually far in life not doing it, but it surely’s simply not one thing I can do, it isn’t my factor. I am extra of a visible and like I can hear issues or. So everytime you hear concerning the script or something like I do not assume I am, I am that good of an actor, that I may pull that off, so I do not assume it would be good for them. I do not assume it would be good for me.
“So it needed to be a call that will get made the place it is like, ah, that does not appear to be the proper factor for me. Though I do know that on the present time by the best way and we’re coming for that ass by the best way, that the rankings are increased on these reveals, we’re coming for that as if on Wednesday nights I wish to let all people know that’s the aim, that although that could be a greater platform in the meanwhile, it does not really feel like that’d be good for me or for them to be part of.”

“I am speaking to all people. I like Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, I need, if I am part of it, and I imagine within the group of individuals behind the scenes. And I really like the group of individuals which might be there [at NXT], I just like the roster, I just like the locker room, I just like the in ring motion, I believe it is f****** superior, like I believe there isn’t any purpose why we won’t go for every thing. Now, I am not alleged to say that, clearly, and there is solely been a pair issues that I have been instructed like please, if you are going to say that may you reword it in a style, however that is simply the best way I’m, like if I am coming into one thing I wish to take over, together with in NXT.
“I’ve all the time been that approach, I am hated by lots of people for that purpose, however I wish to come for everyone. And I obtained lots of respect for everyone to love I believe it is good that there is extra wrestling, I believe it is good as a result of for me, by the best way, Tuesday nights earlier than Mac soccer began like, g** d***, I want there was wrestling on like there’s when there is not wrestling on tv. Like me and my spouse, we’re very bored, okay. I’m a wrestling watcher so I get pleasure from that there is extra. However I believe the mindset, my mindset, I do not know if that is echoed all through all people at NXT, however I wish to take over all people. I believe NXT needs to be the premier model and every thing.”
