Christian Cage

“I think I would have liked to have experienced the whole NXT thing.”

“I am in my own hall of fame, that's all that matters.”

“I felt like when I retired, I was still one of the best in the world and competing at the highest level. I think it's best to bow out and have people remember you at your peak.”

“TNA has been great as far as allowing me to have more input creatively on my character and the direction of my character and promos.”

“One of my earliest memories was watching Ken Patera and Big John Studd cut Andre The Giant's hair. That was the first thing that had a serious effect on me emotionally. I was just moping around the house all day. I couldn't believe they did this to Andre The Giant.”

“Wrestling used to be land of the giants and I think MMA has opened he door for smaller, more athletic competitors to climb up the card in wrestling and be top draws and main event.”

“We dreamt of that as kids growing up. Like, main eventing, being world champion, walking down that aisle at WrestleMania as the last match, as the main event, as the headliner.”

“My favorite Wrestlemania moment is Wrestlemania 2000 in Anaheim. Edge and I won the tag titles for the first time, and back then, we didn't know if we'd ever get the chance to win them, and it was our first real high-stakes match.”

“I have talked about this before, I have always been bad at saving memorabilia.”

“There wasn't a huge focus on tag team wrestling when it was Edge and Christian v The Hardys v The Dudleys, but we forced it. We went out there with something to prove every single time and forced everyone to see that we needed to be on the show every week.”

“It's funny, I do think I've been somewhat overlooked, but I've always viewed that as a challenge. Everyone else seems to get more upset about it than I do.”

“It's kinda like Hulk Hogan whereas any time Hogan walks into a room, he's got that distinctive look. Everybody, whether you're a wrestling fan or not, you know who he is. Chuck has that same thing. Whether you're an MMA fan or not, he'll walk into a room and everyone goes, 'Oh, that's Chuck Liddell.'”

“For many many years, the MMA world shunned on the pro wrestling world. They shunned on us for getting action figures and whatnot.”

“The cool thing about this business is taking the knowledge you've gained that people have passed onto you and then you pass it along to the next generation.”

“I really enjoyed my time on ECW actually.”

“I think I have a little bit of a chip on my shoulder, but I think that's good.”

“If I had a nickel every time someone asked me if I was going into the Hall of Fame, then... I could buy a lot of stuff.”

“We all get into wrestling to go out and perform for our fans.”

“You have to look at your situation, and 'how do I make the best of my situation every single night?' That's what I looked to do.”

“The 'Edge And Christian Show' is evergreen, I guess.”
