Definitely, as an Indian, I'm seen as an outsider, and definitely, the jeers come from that. But I enjoy it; I even encourage it. Whatever noise they make when I'm in the ring, it motivates me, drives me to do better.

If I aspire to be the king of WWE, one day if I keep working at it, I will be the king of WWE.

I want to retire, when it's all said and done, as one of the greats.

I think I am the most dominant superstar in WWE.

Mentally, you can't expect positive things to start happening in your life with a negative attitude.

Getting released in 2014 was the best thing that happened to me because I got to regain my focus, regain my pride, and come back as the best-conditioned athlete there is in WWE, which ultimately led me to become the single greatest WWE champion.

We don't want to upset our fans, because that's not what we are here to do.

I behave. I lock myself in my hotel room every night.

I believe that every WWE superstar is in charge, 100 percent, of his own destiny.

Rob Gronkowski cost me the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal, and I haven't forgot that.

I had become complacent in WWE when I got released in 2014. I had become unmotivated. I wasn't driven. I was out of shape and just not focussed.

I want to be the IC Champion. I want to be the U.S. Champion. I want to be the tag team champion. I want to hold all the championships.

I haven't read 'The Secret,' but I know what it's about, just having positive energy around you and being positive, and things start happening. I'm really, honestly, a firm believer of this.

I'm really proud to represent both cultures, Canadian and Indian, and hopefully I'm making both countries proud as WWE champion.

You can't just become complacent or lazy, or then the decline happens.

I take a magnesium supplement before my workout because it prevents cramping.

I am first one in the gym, I do cardio before I have breakfast, and I am training hard every day.

There is no food in the world that gives you a better feeling of walking around with veins bulging out, six-pack abs. It's the best feeling in the world.

When I am on 'Raw' and 'Smackdown,' I try to make the best of it.

In order to succeed in WWE, you're responsible. If you put in 100 percent, you get back 100 percent.

One of my goals is definitely to motivate the youth towards sports. Whether it's arts or academics, I just want to let them know that anything is possible. To think that I grew up as a WWE fan and now I'm a WWE champion proves that through hard work anything really is possible.

WWE is growing every day, every week, and every month.

I'm an example that, in the WWE, there are opportunities for people who work hard, improve constantly.

When I came to WWE - I got signed when I was 23. When I was on 'SmackDown' roster, the main roster, I was 24. I wasn't ready for those responsibilities. I wasn't - I wasn't seasoned enough as a wrestler, as an in-ring performer.

As long as I can remember, I was a WWE fan. I wanted to grow up and be a WWE superstar just like my favorites.

MMA, cricket, or anything, you cannot just coast. Every day, you have to wake up hungry.

Even in WWE, you believe it when it happens. Because anything can happen in the WWE at the last minute. Things happen, things change, and decisions are made.

At the end of the day, I write down an 'L' or a 'W,' whether or not the day was a 'Loss' or if it was a 'Win.' It really bothers you to have to write down an 'L.' An 'L' looks like a day I ate a lot of junk food, or I didn't work out when I was supposed to or train when I was supposed to train, or if I felt that I had a bad performance in the ring.

One of my goals is to become a WWE Hall of Famer.

Obviously, in WWE, everyone is on top of their game.

Personally, I am hoping being champion will increase the WWE Universe in India because I know that Indian fans are really passionate, and I want to be WWE Champion in India.

Why can't I beat AJ Styles? I beat AJ Styles in the past before.

When I originally debuted in 2011, I was on 'SmackDown.' At the time, they were separate from 'RAW,' so I feel at home on 'SmackDown.'

I don't eat any junk food.

Being part of 'Raw 1000' in the same ring with Undertaker and Kane leading an army of young hungry wrestlers was amazing.

If a situation came about something that would offend someone culturally, I would definitely speak up. WWE would want us to speak up because negative press is not our goal.

I was really into sports, playing track and field, amateur wrestling, volleyball, and soccer. I was a very active kid and teenager.

Two months before I re-signed with WWE, I decided just out of nowhere that I will start dieting, to work on my body and train harder. I started focusing more. Two months later, WWE called me back to re-sign. That was not a coincidence but the universe telling me that I am ready.

The secret to my success is persistence.

My rise in WWE was kickstarted by my physical transformation.

I'm Punjabi and speak Punjabi fluently and know all the Indian customs and everything.

I'm from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and my family is Punjabi.

I learned Punjabi before I learned English in spite of the fact that I was born in Canada.

There's a huge Indian population here in Toronto. Also, Calgary, Vancouver, Winnipeg, Edmonton - Canada really is a great multicultural country.

It is an honor to represent the people of India every time I step into the ring.

You can actually eat very clean at Chipotle. They have white rice, they have brown rice, and they have chicken. I stay away from the guac and the sour cream. I just get lettuce, double-meat chicken, and a white or brown rice.

If you eat every two hours, your body doesn't really hold much fat, and it actually speeds up your metabolism.

The first thing I do when I wake up is cardio on an empty stomach. I'll just drink water, or maybe I'll have a black coffee with no sugar, and I'll do about 25 minutes of cardio, six days a week.

In Birmingham, England, I had a match with Tyson Kidd, and Mick Foley was at ringside and delivered a socko to me at the end of the match. That was another one of those moments that, if you told me I would be in the ring with Mick Foley giving me a socko, I wouldn't believe you.

I have a very positive outlook. I set goals for myself, and I write down my goals.
