NXT is very special, and everybody who turns in for Unstoppable is gonna see that.

I always strive to receive the loudest reaction that I can; whether that is being booed out of the building or being cheered.

People ask me how I am such a good heel, but I don't know; I just try to be me and go and do what I need to do to get the job done on any show that I am on and achieve the work that is set up in front of me.

It is pretty daunting - the Cell has been responsible for some amazing matches, but it can also lead to some pretty real injuries, so that plays into your mind.

From the time I was 11 until I was 23 and met my wife, wrestling was all I cared about. It was an obsession, and that's why I think I ended up making it. There was no other option for me.

I think healthy competition is great, and I think WWE would agree.

NXT really built some momentum and became something pretty special.

To be clear, NXT is a great place to be at, you know what I mean? ... Obviously, everybody aspires to be on Raw or Smackdown. That's why they sign with WWE, because they want to be able to perform on that stage and at Wrestlemania and Summerslam.

I was in NXT for six months, and it was some of the best times I've had in my career.

All I really care about is my son.

Everything I do really is for my family.

I wrestled in Detroit many times before getting to WWE.

I think when people don't respect wrestling, it's because they're misinformed.

Fortunately, in the WWE, the security staff is very dedicated and very professional. They know what they're doing.

You don't want to be too hesitant and not give everything you could give.

The crowds have always been known to be pretty loud and wild in the South.

There's a lot of people out there who are just miserable in their own lives, I guess, and just trying to make other people miserable as well to bring themselves up. There's no shortage of that, that's for sure.

When I was a kid and went to shows, my favorites were Live Events. You really see a performer's personality on Live Events than on TV.

I was drafted way later than I should have been, and all that shows me is people don't see my true value.

I would like to be champion - that is everybody's ultimate goal - but my one goal at all times, whether on Raw, Smackdown, a pay-per-view, or a live event, is to make people walk away and remember what I did.

I don't feel like I'm a character; I certainly don't feel like I'm a gimmick. I am who I am.

I've been part of so many pay-per-views, and I've been in the ring with John Cena and Dean Ambrose and Randy Orton and Chris Jericho and Roman Reigns... all the top names. And I've been Intercontinental champion twice.

I want to be remembered.

I look up to Tye Dillinger.

I'm not as extreme in real life as I am in the ring or on television.

I'm a lot happier on RAW. I actually can't overthink how much better I think I am on RAW than I was on Smackdown. And I don't really know the reason why that is. I feel like I look more at home here, and I feel like I look like I belong here. It's pretty obvious that RAW's the place for me.

Everybody wants to get the MITB contract; that usually means at some point they will become champion. That's a big deal; that's what everybody strives for.

Jim Cornette and I have never really seen eye-to-eye.

A. J. Styles is an incredible performer; very spectacular.

I have never been a SmackDown guy. I never felt at home at SmackDown.

My wife, she's been with me for 10 years. She saw the ups and the downs, and she saw so many people tell me I would never make it to WWE, but she never doubted it.

I think if you look at NXT, the one guy who seems like he would belong in a WrestleMania main event is Nakamura because of the aura and the buzz that he gets. He is able to grab the attention of people who don't really know who he is right away with his mannerisms and entrance - by the time he gets to the ring, you are kind of hooked.

I was never a WCW fan growing up, so I was never a Goldberg fan at all - and I've told him that.

I hope that Ring Of Honor could one day sell out Madison Square Garden when WWE is not in town.

I've always believed in myself, quite frankly, and believed in my abilities.

I wasn't in NXT for very long, but what I learned there was very valuable once I got onto the main roster - how to communicate to a larger audience, stuff like that.

I went from beating John Cena in my first match to winning the Intercontinental title to defending it at WrestleMania.

I've been a top guy since I walked in - since I beat John Cena in my first match.

I don't have many particular beliefs, but I do believe in people who we've lost. I'll speak to Owen Hart; he was a big influence on me as a young wrestler, and when he passed, I felt a great sense of loss. Ever since then, I just talk to Owen Hart before every match, and I ask him to be with me and make sure I don't get hurt.

The way I look and the shape I am in, I've had so many people tell me, 'You'll never make it because of the way you look.' But that never stopped me - it may even have motivated me a little.

I don't think I'm a loud mouth.

It's not hard for me to stay humble. I think there is always somebody better than me, so that's what keeps me humble. A lot of people could learn how to stay humble.

I have dreamed of being a champion in WWE, and there's nothing I won't do, no length I won't go to, in order to keep it that way.

A big reason why I signed with WWE in the first place was because my son wanted to see me wrestle in WWE, and he wanted to see me wrestle John Cena.

Whether it's the NXT title or the United States title or the Intercontinental title or the World title, if I have that title, then that's the most important one.

I went into NXT with no expectations. That's what I was told when I was hired - have no expectations, just do the best I could - and that's always what I've done for the last fifteen years. That's what I did, and you know, it's obviously working out pretty good.

When I'm on, people watch; people pay attention.
