I think what Brendan Rodgers did was right; I thought it was successful. He was able to show that he was able to change several players, prove to everybody in the team that no-one's guaranteed a spot, rest a lot of key players, and at the same time walk away with a very reputable result.
When you start out somewhere, you've got to get your feet wet. You got to find your place.
I got great opportunities on 'SmackDown' - myself and Daniel Bryan, we reinvented ourselves; we got steam behind us again on that show.
Us Irish are kind of like that: we're hard grafters. We like to prove everybody wrong.
I didn't want to be one of these superstars that just come and then just disappear.
As long as you are enjoying your wrestling and enjoying what you are doing, that's all that really matters.
I used to work for Symantec AV: I worked as their in-house IT technician, and then I worked as specialized AV support, and then I worked for Hartford Life IT, in Dublin and London. I worked in IT from '99 through to 2007.
I try to enter every match or every event with the same attitude, because to me, they're all as important as each other, and you're only as good as your last fight.
The League of Nations could've been something really, really big... it wasn't. A lot of guys were frustrated about it in a way.
The funny thing was, with IT, I was never really a tech type of person: I was better with people, good at dealing with people. I had technical experience; I knew the nitty gritty. I could never be a programmer or anything, but I knew my way around.
When I was growing up as a kid, it was always, 'Oh, you're being bullied. Well, toughen up. Get some tough skin and deal with it.' That's how we were told to deal with it, and it's not that simple.
I'd love to play Venom. I'm a huge 'Spider-Man' fan, and Venom was the character that drew me into the comics.
Every time I get into the ring, my perspective is that the other guy is standing between me and a victory.
You can never be happy; you can never be satisfied with what you have. You always need to have that want to achieve more, and I definitely want that success.
The thing about me and Cesaro is that we both have strong individual personalities.
When I became a part of Be a STAR and now with Do Something coming together with WWE, we have a much further range and bigger reach to get the message of anti-bullying and the effects of bullying out there.
Any important series like 'Game of Thrones' or 'The Walking Dead' base their product around the characters and their background.
I'm a whiskey drinker, but Cesaro is a coffee drinker.
I have a PlayStation 3, and I love the 'God of War' games because the fellow's got probably as white skin as I have.
The wheel goes round and round and comes back, and opportunities are given again. You just have to remember that.
