- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
A lot of people thought you couldn't be a top-level athlete as a vegan, but people like Mac Danzig and Jake Shields are proving that's wrong. And it's better for me as a performer.
- Diet
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My diet is very kale-heavy. It's so nutrient-dense. I stay away from fake processed stuff.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm pretty much friendly and compassionate to everybody. But not to people in the ring.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
WWE doesn't owe us anything.
- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I used to be vegan. I'm not anymore, but I don't eat hardly any meat. But it's nice for me to go to a place like Chipotle where I can get some fresh veggies, some brown rice, some black beans, and all that kind of stuff.
- Hard
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Sometimes there's cities where it's just hard to find healthy food. You just have to be prepared.
- Friends
- |
- Nov 07, 2020

- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you watch dogs play, they run and they fight, but they don't fight to hurt each other. They just play. And that's been me my entire life.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
You have to realize that a lot of life is just fortune and the ebbs of flows of what goes on.
- Great
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I wasn't a great athlete.
- Power
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
That is one of the coolest things about WWE and wrestling in general. The fans have this very unique voice and this very unique power, and in no other sport and no other form of entertainment can the fans make their voices heard and it effect change.
- Feel
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I feel like a lot of fans would like to see me with the heavyweight championship.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
With wrestling, you can't describe how that connection with an audience happens. I can't teach anybody how that happens. The bad things that have happened to me in WWE have made that connection stronger.
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm definitely an underdog.
- Nov 07, 2020
My passion is the wrestling.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think fans always want something new, but they want somebody who can deliver - to go out there and really entertain them and have good matches.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I was in high school, I started getting into Japanese wrestling. For me to watch those matches, I had to order VHS tapes through catalogues, and these tapes were, like, $20 each.
- Internet
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If it weren't for the Internet, WWE probably wouldn't even know my name. If I had to rely on 'Pro Wrestling Illustrated' to get my name out there, it would have been a much more difficult road.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I really don't know life without wrestling.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
With my history of concussions, the WWE wants to protect me, so I've had to take a lot of neurological testing.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My mind thinks in wrestling. As I'm thinking of things and my mind is being creative, it constantly keeps going back to wrestling. That's my inspiration, and to not be able to express that puts me in a spot where I almost don't know what to do with myself.
- Never
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
People have said to me, 'It must be nice to prove so many people wrong,' but I've never really cared about proving anything to anybody else.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always feel like I wasn't the best trainer, because I'm really good at teaching people stuff, but I'm not good if people aren't super psyched - if they're not like me.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I loved wrestling in Philly. It was such an exciting time in my life. That really helped me grow and think differently. It was also just a lot of fun.
- Long
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Miz and I have known each other for a long time, and we really know, like, how to get at each other's nerves.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I keep trying to convince people that I'm OK to wrestle, and I think that's probably the hard part. A lot of times I'm trying to convince myself, too, that I can wrestle. It's really hard, because the concussion issue is very subjective, and that's the part that a lot of people don't understand.
- Mind
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Wrestling is more of a creative outlet, and especially for somebody like me, I view it as my creative outlet. Not all WWE superstars and not all wrestlers view it that way, but that's how I view it, and that's one of the ways my mind works creatively.
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always think of it in terms of music. You're not always going to be a huge rock star in music, but musicians can play until the day they die. With sports, it's different. You can't always do it until the very end, and that's a hard reality of sports.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The blessings wrestling has given me have allowed me to find some new passions, but it's really hard when you've got that first love, and nothing really replaces it.
- First Thing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I first got to WWE, the head of talent relations was John Laurinaitis, who is now my father-in-law, and the first thing I thought when I saw everything that he had to do is, I thought, 'I would never, in a million years, ever want that job. You could not pay me enough money to have that job.'
- Feel
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I feel like I'm not the greatest general manager in the history of general managers, but I do OK, and I'm learning as I go. I try to just do my best with it.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think one of the things that really endeared me to people was that people got to view more aspects of my personality than most because of the different things that I did within WWE.
- Draw
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In combat sports, personalities are what draw.
- Boxing
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao was one of the worst boxing matches I've ever seen, but millions of people watched it because of the personalities involved.
- Hard Time
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm having a really hard time with this retirement thing and not having wrestling.
- Opinion
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I think whatever you have in your life, my opinion is that if you know that there's something wrong, you try to fix it.
- Exciting
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Smaller wrestlers are built for more exciting matches.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like Everton. If I'm going to cheer for that kind of football team, I'm going to cheer for Everton. But the Seahawks are my passion.
- Mind
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Every year, I say the Seahawks are going to win the Super Bowl. There's no doubt in my mind every single year. And you have to keep in mind this was well before the Seahawks were good. This was, like, 2-14, drafting-Rick-Mirer Seahawks. I would still be saying they were going to win the Super Bowl.
- More
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I've lifted weights ever since I was a teenager, but I started going more towards the Olympic weightlifting style, which is clean and jerk.
- Country
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My brain is - essentially, you take any college football player in the country, because I have had multiple, multiple concussions. I had 10 documented concussions, four post-concussion seizures and so, but, with that said, my brain is no worse than your average college football player's brain, right?
- Father
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My health is 100% more important than coming back to wrestling. Being a good father is more important than going out there and expounding on my belief that doing more hammerlocks in wrestling is good for the business!
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
One of the wonderful things about wrestling, to me, is that you can protect people who have had head injuries.
- Dad
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I would read a lot about how to be a dad. I had never changed a diaper before we had Birdie.
- New
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I would define the new aspects of fatherhood like this: It is 75 percent amazing and 25 percent demoralizing. I think any new parent can understand exactly what I'm talking about.
- Pain
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Seeing your baby in pain and seeing them crying and that sort of thing, and you're tired, and you can do nothing about it - that's, like, one of the most demoralizing things I can think of.
- Great
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The best parenting advice I actually got was from Shane McMahon. He was great with me when Brie was pregnant and all that. He said, 'When you have that baby, make sure you take care of Brie first.'
- Journey
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I was very good in school, and my parents really would have really liked me to go to college. Instead, I went on this random journey to go be a professional wrestler.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
A lot of people don't understand how hard the girls on 'Total Divas' work. They're on the road, the same as the rest of us, and then when they get home, they've got to be filming this whole time.
- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My biggest concern with the whole deal with 'Total Divas' and with WWE - and, you know, they want you to be engaged with social media and all this kind of stuff - I don't want to live my life to entertain other people.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love wrestling, and I love the entertainment aspect of wrestling, but the rest of my life, I just want to be able to live and enjoy my life. I don't want to be living it essentially for other people's entertainment.
- Live
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't want to live my life to entertain other people. I have other things that I'd like to do.
- Grow
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
If you want to grow a beard like mine, the only thing I can tell you is that you have to have patience. You just have to let it grow.
- Know
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
For some reason, the fans got behind me, and I don't know exactly why that is. I wasn't supposed to main event WrestleMania XXX, but the fans were so vocal about it that the fans had no choice but to put me in the match. I've had a lot of lucky breaks.
- Look
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have to look at my career as 'it was what it was,' but I do wish there was more of it.
- Loved
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Part of me wants to stay involved in wrestling, because I love it. But the thing I loved most about it was the wrestling part of it. I didn't get into it to be famous or to be a TV star: I got into it because I loved the act of wrestling.
- Environmental
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm into environmental and ecological issues, so maybe that is an avenue to go down.
- Only
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a terrible actor. I would suck in films! The only way I would do well is if I was playing myself, which is what I did in my career.
- Being Used
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I went from being a guy who was sparingly being used on television to being the World Heavyweight Champion and the focus of a lot of the storylines on Smackdown.
- Eating
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I have no problem with people eating meat. I would just like it, for the people who do eat meat, for the animals to be treated better. To be treated humanely. Cows in pastures living the life that they're supposed to live. I have no problem with that.
- Like
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like having a bunch of different experiences. I don't want to do just one thing for the rest of my life.
- Love
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I love wrestling, but to wrestle just one style for the rest of my life seems like it would really hold me down creatively.
- Good
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like going to Japan where they treat it like a real sport. I like doing the entertainment stuff with the WWE. I really like doing the small venue stuff, like Ring of Honor, because everything is so intimate. There's different feelings and different experiences, and you have to be good at different things to do all of that.
- More
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
WWE was an opportunity to wrestle in front of thousands - in 2013, I did 227 matches, and almost all of them were in front of more than three or four thousand people, with a high of 70,000 plus. It was an incredible experience to be part of that.
- Flying
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't do really well in cities, which is crazy given that we're flying in and out of these major cities every week.
- Nature
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I get this anxiety in cities and places like that. When you grow up in kind of a small town and when you grow up around a lot of green and trees and nature and that sort of thing, sometimes I think it's a little mentally disconcerting to be around this concrete.
- Because
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
One of the autobiographies I really liked was Bob Dylan's. It was interesting because he didn't do it in a linear fashion.
- Over
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I spent a lot of time over in England wrestling at Butlins holiday camps for Brian Dixon and All Star Wrestling.
- Live
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I always try to live in the moment.
- Perfect
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Wrestling is different to me. As I talk to other wrestlers, wrestling seems a little different to me than it does to a lot of them. To me, it's about an artistic performance and about honing my artistic performance in pursuit of these minute moments of perfection. These little encapsulations. And none of them are ever perfect.
