What kind of moron would go to work for half the amount of money, when they could sit at home and collect what's written in a contract?
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.
At the end of the day you go out and do your job and follow your directions.
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.
Free agency screws everybody's allegiances up. Whether it be football, baseball, hockey, basketball, whatever it may be. It's really hard.
The fact is that I made a stand a number of times in my career, and I did it because I knew I was right.

At the end of the day, when you are in the front office, your tenure is dictated by the people surrounding you.
I think it's widely known at this stage that I am willing to put past differences aside and make some money and do the right thing for the fans. If it happens, it happens. It's all good. If it doesn't, I truly am not going to miss a beat of my life.
Luckily I stayed in shape due to wrestling.
Sometimes my natural instincts take over and I just go overboard.
