“Pro wrestling is so physical and taxing and just hurts your body; it's very aggressive entertainment.”

“The Wyatt Family was a very special thing. The 3 of us came together at a perfect time. It was a perfect storm, and that rivalry with The Shield in 2014-2015 was a magical time.”

“If Okada, if a Tanahashi, Michael Elgin, The Young Bucks, if they want to have a ,the place they can find me is the WWE. I'm going to be busy making my way to the top of that food chain.”

“Early, I wanted to fight against things: 'Oh, I feel like a background dancer here in the back of the Wyatts.' Man, looking back now, I wish we could still be doing that. I'm on TV every week, plenty of TV. You've got to look at some of the positives of the situation.”

“I want to be Intercontinental Champion. I also want to be a tag-team champion.”

“There were times in my career when I felt like I was serving several different masters, and for me, that wasn't beneficial.”

“Professional wrestling is a beautiful yet cruel mistress. She will treat you well and treat you horribly, but outside of my family, it is my one true love.”

“Obviously, I'm not a Neanderthal. I do do laundry. I am a human being.”

“I've tried to make it a thing where they, somebody in WWE, needs me or wants me there. And if I do my job well, it becomes a thing, and I just try to make it a reality, I guess. And I'm just trying not to get released.”

“My wife loves to tell me that I love to tell people, 'Oh, I never thought WWE would sign me. I never thought I'd be on TV. I never thought I'd be a champion. I never thought any of those things were remotely possible.'”

“The first run or match with The Shield always stands out to me - our matches, our wars.”

“In my singles run, I would have to say my ladder match with Dolph Ziggler in Cleveland for the Intercontinental Title was probably a career highlight for me. If throwing that pretty boy through a ladder isn't fun, I don't know what is.”

“The Bludgeon Brothers are the Bludgeon Brothers. We don't care if people think we look like Kane. We are impactful and get the job done.”

“I went to high school every single day in an all-male Jesuit school at McQuaid with short hair, no beard, suit jacket, tie.”

“I am dying to be a world champion, a single's world champion.”
