You can be a big fish in a small pond, but you're only going to be competing against people at that level.

I'm not going to throw in the towel a moment earlier than I think I have to.

It's a very simple answer, how to get my abs so defined. I have a very healthy diet of a lot of laughter. If you laugh all the time, you're consistently flexing your abdominals all the time.

I don't really pay attention to the news or stuff like that or what's going on in politics.

I think Finn Balor is more about confidence, a smarter version of Prince Devitt. Otherwise, they have the same core values, same techniques, and the same heart.

I really believe in the power of positive thinking and the collective power of people's thoughts spawning something into becoming reality.

I try and look at the positives in every situation.

I was big into hip-hop as a kid, and when I was eighteen, I got into dance and rave music, which was popular in Ireland at the time.

A lot of people are under the impression that Finn Balor relies on the Demon King, but that is certainly not the case.

I'm the sort of person with a very short attention span, and I lose interest in things very quickly.

When I first broke in, I wanted to be the best technical wrestler on the planet.

When kids tune in and see Jordan Devlin, Trent Seven, Pete Dunne, Wolfgang on the WWE Network, and then they see a poster at the town hall for their local wrestling show, they're gonna say, 'Oh my God, that's Pete Dunne. I wanna go see him.'

2010 was an incredible year for me. I won the Best of the Super Juniors, and went on to win the IWGP Junior Heavyweight title. That was an unbelievable achievement.

I came up in the U.K., which is a very catch-as-catch-can style, and then I somehow ended up in Japan and spent eight years there learning strong style. I got to spend some time in Mexico learning the lucha libre style, and the WWE is a hybrid style of everything mixed together.

If I'm going to draw something, I don't know the day before what I'm going to draw. It's just very much an interpretation of how I'm feeling that day and what I think is the coolest thing in my brain at that very moment.

It was a big gamble to come to WWE, and it was a big gamble to come to NXT. Honestly, the gamble paid off.

My parents have supported me everywhere I've went: U.K. to Japan, NXT.

To go from a small wrestling dojo to the Performance Center was just mind-blowing. The sheer scale - I didn't think anything like that could possibly exist.

We're all humans living on this tiny little rock, floating through space at, like, thousands of miles an hour. We should all just get along.

Just remember that when I went to New Japan, nobody knew who I was. And I've done okay.

I do enjoy a level of intensity that I bring when I'm the Demon, but it's a mindset that takes a couple of days to get into; it's not something I can do every day.

With regards to the paint, I'm normally quite introverted and shy. I keep myself to myself, and I find that when I hide behind the paint, so to speak, I'm able to let myself go more and move more freely than I can without it.

I don't really like to think too far into the future.

I started playing soccer when I was 6 years old and started lifting weights when I was 16, so it's not like I never exercised.

Everyone that watches wrestling as a kid dreams of being a wrestler for WWE.

Balor Club is for everyone.

I'm going to look forward to the future as opposed to looking back at the past.

It's almost like putting on a mask protects you from people's judgments and lets you completely flow freely, like, with all your aggression and our animosity against anything.

I worry too much about the present to worry about the future.

When you go out there, and you're in the ring, honestly, half the time you forget what city you're even in because you're so focused on what you're doing and the task at hand.

I'm not one for reading comments or reading what people say online because, generally, there's a lot of negativity.

I can honestly say it was the greatest decision of my life coming to WWE.

The crowd down in Australia is always so energetic, some of the best crowds in the world to perform in front of.

I didn't realize how much the paint was going to affect how I moved and how I walked. And it wasn't something that consciously happened. It was because the first time I'd done it was a Tokyo Dome show, I want to say in 2013-14, and I walked out there, and I was a completely different person.

I think everybody in WWE and NXT want to be involved in WrestleMania. I can huff and puff and push all I want, but that's something you just can't rush.

I quite like walking out in my sweet new Balor Club jacket, popping my collar and being Mr. Cool.

I always wanted to have sort of an alter ego.

How I feel as a person and what I support as a person always remains the same, and that is continuing to support LGBT communities around the world.

My whole career, I've been climbing or chasing or hunting something.

I can't speak of anything but greatness for Roman Reigns. He's one of the all-time greats.

Johnny Saint is someone who I studied as a kid.

When you're in NXT, you're really fighting and trying to dig down deep and chase your dream.

I came to WWE to be on 'WrestleMania' and to be in a 'WrestleMania' main event.

I'm very much in a mindset that I take myself out of anything that I'm not involved in.

The Demon character is something I draw on occasion. It's something that requires a lot of focus to tap into and really requires the right situation for me to sort of draw on that darker side of my personality.

I'm a big fan of seeing smaller guys vs. big men.

You can kind of run drills and practice, rehab behind closed doors as much as you can, but there's nothing that simulates being in front of a live audience with live TV cameras.

I always go back to my days in NXT and look at my feud with Samoa Joe. That was one of the best periods of growth for me.

I've been in opening matches of pay-per-views. I've been in main events of pay-per-views, and the same mentality is applied to both, and that is, 'To this point, this is the biggest match of my life, and I'm gonna go out there and give it everything I have.'

I'm proud to be the standard-bearer for NXT.
