You know, he wins it and then maybe defends it, you know, once every month at a pay-per-view, but now I’m at the exact opposite. It’s so fun just giving something because like I come from skateboarding background and all this stuff where it’s like a lot of my traditions are that opposite of what a pro wrestler, you know, so it’s like, why not just do something completely opposite?”
