I think at WrestleMania you definitely want a singles match and not have to share the spotlight with other guys.
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.
People are entitled to their own opinion as far as what a WWE Champion should be, but the fact is that I am WWE Champion and that's a fact. It is what it is.
It's really all about getting the people to believe in you and the harder you work, the better you become.
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.
Do everything in your power to make sure you achieve your dreams.
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 had a lot of starts and stops as far as my career is concerned, but I think what I am able to do is to put things into perspective.
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.
Anything is possible for anybody if they work hard enough.
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.
