We're really greedy when it comes to titles. We want every championship - the women's title included.

Anybody out there who has had a situation where they've had to struggle - when they want something so badly, but they can't quite get it - I am living and breathing proof that if you endure, if you push yourself, if you strive to be your best, no matter what, if you keep on working hard, then good things can happen.

I get inspired from all different kinds of places - cartoons, comic books, movies and things like that.

As far as the community involvement is concerned, I don't necessarily think that being a babyface or being a heel really affects that because, at the end of the day, people know that we're entertainers. We're very forward about that.

Any type of Royal Rumble or battle royal I always look forward to because I usually get to do some pretty cool things.

I was never going to be the one to get recognition because of my looks.

There are guys who are way taller than me, weigh a lot more than me, are stronger than me, not faster than me but all other aspects people get recognized and looked at and opportunities based on how they look. I've been fighting that battle my entire lifetime.

It's so important to have representation for all races on TV. All people, from all walks of life. So when other people look at the television screen they can see and identify with that person doing great things.

I want to be the true champion of the people, and I take a lot of pride in having that role.

Fox is huge and for WWE to be on Fox, it's an honor for us to be there.

A lot of people always say, 'Oh, people down there in NXT' or 'Down there' as if it's... yeah, it's like a farming system for WWE, but they've done such a great job over the years making their own brand.

The Wyatts in general are just really entertaining, in a strange type of way.

Don't let the reasons why you don't accomplish your dreams be because of you or a decision that you made. Do everything that you can possibly do to achieve that dream.

Anytime somebody shares a personal story with me during autograph signings and someone comes up to me and shakes my hand and says thank you and I'm just like, wow. The fact that I can have an influence over somebody; it is heartwarming, it is the goal.

There's a lot of people who think that I am happy all the time.

I've been on the other side where I know that a bad day at WWE beats the best day at Staples.

I know how it feels to sit on the sideline and watch a spot that is supposed to be yours taken.

It's always important for people to be able to watch WWE, especially because it's a global product, it's important for people all over the world to be able to look at the screen and see somebody who looks like them doing great things. And in turn, that inspires them to do great things.

I take a lot of pride being a beacon of hope for people who haven't achieved what they wanted to achieve even though they've had to wait a very long time to do it.

My goal is to be the best champion possible and to do that I have to go against the best.

Even before I became a WWE Superstar, I was told I was never going to make it because I wasn't big enough. You know what I mean? I wasn't strong enough, I wasn't 6 foot 8.

The performance centre is unbelievable, I've had a chance to go there on a couple of occasions in Orlando as it's only about two hours from my house, and I was completely blown away.

One of the matches that is pretty dear to my heart is when I took on Chris Jericho at Night of Champions in 2008.

Myself, I always tell people that if you're not getting better you're only getting worse, and every day I try and be better than yesterday.

It is one thing to tell people in theory that you can be whatever you want to be, but it is another thing to tell someone that they can be whatever they wanted to be because somebody that is just like you did it.

I honestly believe that if you are able to entertain and interact with the crowd, it doesn't matter what ethnicity you may be.

People always say, 'Oh, there haven't been many black champions,' but on the other hand, there are a whole lot of white people that never won a belt either.

With Punk, I consider him to be like a brother to me. He's one of the guys who took me under his wing when I first came. So we've been able to maintain a good relationship. And there are very few people in the business that you can call true friends, so I consider Punk to be that and more. So yes, 'road wife' is the term we used to sum that all up.

For me personally, I'm going to continue to do what I do in the ring.

I'm just so proud to be champion and to have the support of my peers and my fans.

It was a very real thing, not a storyline thing when Randy Orton didn't want me to get to a certain point in WWE.

When I was training before I was even signed, I was listening to the Damian Marley CD 'Welcome to Jamrock,' and I got the idea one day in promo class to cut a promo in a Jamaican accent and everybody in the class went wild. That was the character I played from that point on and it kind of stuck until it didn't.

A lot of times when teams break up, it's to do better as singles competitors than they're doing as a group.

I've always said that 205 Live is one of the best-kept secrets in WWE.

Jamaica actually had a pretty big influence on my life.

I'm really into music.

I realized a very long time ago, that I was never going to be the guy who, 'Oh, you look so big, let's push him in the main event and see,' or, 'Oh, this guy's got the best physique ever, let's put him in the main event and see.' It was always going to be the hard way.

I'm lucky and blessed to have so many tag-team championships.

Never in my wildest dreams did I set the goal to be the longest-reigning tag-team champion.

To be honest, I've always been a guy who looks at everything with a pretty positive outlook.

My goal is always about getting better.

Ever since I was a kid, this is all I've ever wanted to do. I used to pretend to be a WWE superstar.

I'm living, breathing proof that you can be anything you want to be.

E and Woods are incredibly talented individuals that I am so blessed to have been grouped with these guys. To have met these guys in life, to have met such great guys that I call my family.

I didn't expect to become the guy who people look to do something cool in the Rumble in terms of avoiding elimination.

Playing video games, as funny as it might sound, it's a very important part of our day. Our schedule is so hectic, chaotic, demanding that we need an outlet. We need ways to express ourselves and let our energy out.

My dad is actually from Ghana in West Africa, and I was actually born in Ghana, too, and came to the United States when I was two years old. It's always football over there, soccer, but becoming a Massachusetts native, you can't help but get sucked into all the sports.

When I come to a baseball game, I appreciate the athleticism of these top-tier athletes. When they come to our shows, it's the same thing.

WWE is all about doing things that have never been done.

I always want to go up against the best competition, I want to have as many championship matches as possible.
