People don't realize what a hard job commentary is. It is so hard and one of the hardest jobs in the industry. I would never say never to anything, but I would need a lot of reps to be good at that job.

For many many years, the MMA world shunned on the pro wrestling world. They shunned on us for getting action figures and whatnot.
The word dream match is thrown around quite a bit, and I mean if you think about it. There's all these possibilities, like what if Edge could face Roman Reigns or Seth Rollins? Or, a guy like AJ Styles.
When I left I knew I was gonna go back to WWE. But I needed to go because whatever I was doing wasn't working. I needed to take a chance on myself and get better. The only way to do that was take some risks and go somewhere.
It's kinda like Hulk Hogan whereas any time Hogan walks into a room, he's got that distinctive look. Everybody, whether you're a wrestling fan or not, you know who he is. Chuck has that same thing. Whether you're an MMA fan or not, he'll walk into a room and everyone goes, 'Oh, that's Chuck Liddell.'
I always said when I was wrestling that you have tunnel vision because it's all consuming. It's hard to focus on anything else other than what you're doing. When I stepped away from that, I wanted to have my hand in a lot of different pots.
For me, whenever I got into this business, I wanted to be the very best that I could be.
I always had aspirations to be the champion. I never gave up.
I never wanted to be one of those guys who hung on too long.
If I had a nickel every time someone asked me if I was going into the Hall of Fame, then... I could buy a lot of stuff.
I've pretty much accomplished everything I've ever wanted to do, except main event WrestleMania, and let's be honest - how many people actually get a chance to do that?
It's strange to think that one day you're wrestling, and the next day you're not.
The cool thing about this business is taking the knowledge you've gained that people have passed onto you and then you pass it along to the next generation.
I am in my own hall of fame, that's all that matters.
The cool thing about wrestling fans is that they're so passionate.
Wayne Gretzky is the greatest hockey player of all-time, I don't think there is any debate about that. If you look at the records he holds, they'll never be broken or touched. He wasn't the biggest, wasn't the fastest, and didn't have the hardest shot, but no one saw the game developing the way he saw the game develop.
The wrestling equivalent to Wayne Gretzky? That's Shawn Michaels.
If you're a Maple Leafs fan, you hate the Canadiens. I'm not a Canadiens fan at all.
I really enjoyed my time on ECW actually.
When you wrestle on television, you're always fighting for time and the enemy is you're never getting enough of it, you're looking, trying to get more.
With ECW, I had a lot of time for matches. I could go out there and do a 20-25 minute match, where normally I'd get to do a 7-8 minute match.
I had worked with The Shield quite a bit, live events and things like that so we had good chemistry in the ring.
Wrestlers are very protective and care about what we do and we're always fighting for credibility.
Every time I step foot through the ropes, I try to entertain and put on the best match possible.
I think I have a little bit of a chip on my shoulder, but I think that's good.
I think that if you challenge yourself, then you're going to get your best performances, and every time I go out there, I challenge myself to be better than I was last time.
My favorite Wrestlemania moment is Wrestlemania 2000 in Anaheim. Edge and I won the tag titles for the first time, and back then, we didn't know if we'd ever get the chance to win them, and it was our first real high-stakes match.
I felt like when I retired, I was still one of the best in the world and competing at the highest level. I think it's best to bow out and have people remember you at your peak.
I retired when I was 40. I started when I was 19. I never wanted to be a guy who was a shell of his former self and have people say, 'He's not as good as he used to be.'
The 'Edge And Christian Show' is evergreen, I guess.
TNA has been great as far as allowing me to have more input creatively on my character and the direction of my character and promos.
My biggest fear, the only fear that I have is failing. I hate to fail at anything that I do and that's really my only fear in life, to be a failure.
I don't want anything handed to me, I want to work for everything I have... that's the way I've done everything in my life.
I was obsessed with 'Top Spin' for some reason, and I wanted to be the best in the game. I think at one time on Xbox Live I was ranked about 60th. I just couldn't put that one down.
I did go to TNA when I left WWE briefly in 2005 for three years. When I went there, it was solely to prove to myself, even if it was on a smaller platform that I could carry main event matches, programmes, and promos and be the face of a show. I needed to do that. I needed to gain that confidence and go back and be able to do it.
I needed to bet on myself. And if you're willing to bet on yourself then sometimes it works out and if you believe in yourself and your abilities that will be the case.
Obviously, it's unheard of for anybody to come back from this type of injury that Edge had.
Guys like The Revival have this chip on their shoulder and I think that's what you have to do.
There wasn't a huge focus on tag team wrestling when it was Edge and Christian v The Hardys v The Dudleys, but we forced it. We went out there with something to prove every single time and forced everyone to see that we needed to be on the show every week.
Wrestling used to be land of the giants and I think MMA has opened he door for smaller, more athletic competitors to climb up the card in wrestling and be top draws and main event.
The goal was to have matches that would stand the test of time.
One day, I was flipping through the channels and I happened to flip the channel onto wrestling. I had never seen it before; I didn't know what it was. I was hooked instantly.
One of my earliest memories was watching Ken Patera and Big John Studd cut Andre The Giant's hair. That was the first thing that had a serious effect on me emotionally. I was just moping around the house all day. I couldn't believe they did this to Andre The Giant.
It's cool to talk to the fans and get some one-on-one time and shake hands, sign autographs, take some pictures and have conversations with people.
Growing up, 'Mean' Gene was the voice of my generation.
Coming from a wrestling background with WWE, I know how much the fans love WWE. They come out every time we're there and there are huge crowds and they're always so gracious, and are some of the best fans anywhere in the world.
Without sounding too full of myself, with wrestling I felt like I was one of the best in the world and I competed at a very high level for a long time.
Tag team wrestling is what put myself, Edge, the Hardys and the Dudleys all on the map. It made us into WWE superstars, and without that, I don't think that my singles career would have gone to the places it went to.
For me, tag team wrestling will always hold a special place in my heart and I do wish it could have been highlighted more.
