2hrs before this PPV starts, Vince McMahon calls me in his office (I thought I was in trouble) he said, “You’re going over tonight”, meaning I was going to win. I was shocked. 3 months later my career crashed hard but that negative eventually became my positive. #grateful 🙏🏾 https://t.co/0MDBSPiH2M
