“He's a big mark for him. You should see the text messages he has about him,” said Giovanna. “He says, ‘You need to push them!’ The whole “Shorty” thing should have never even happened. He should have — Kurt always says, ‘Do not talk about height. Do not talk about age. Those are the two things you don't talk about. When you do that the fans will remember that, and that's what the main focus is.’ He should have been carrying, he should have taken the title, you can make a small guy into a giant guy if you build him up, look at Rey Mysterio. So Kurt is a big mark for him.”
