Nowadays everybody knows who’s going to win because somebody is going to say something and before the match even starts, they know who’s going to go over. You know, the fans already know who’s going to win the belt three months from now. The fans will know who the next person is they’re going to push.”

Nowadays you go to shows and everybody, they got their mother, their kids, their girlfriend, all in the dressing rooms, you understand me, and that really bothers me. … The sacredness of the business is gone and I hate that.”
