For me to have been one of the ample to take him on and show him the way, I'm just glum that he trusted me. A lot of guys fights with just listening and understanding that maybe the guy that's done it longer than you can bellow you something. He put that trust in me, and I think it has paid dividends.

It's not just talk, it's not just chatter, it's not just country making comments on the internet. Everything I do within that ring and everything I do on Friday and Sunday nights is on a different quiet than everybody else. That's why they're not talking around Raw. They're all talking about SmackDown and what we do. We lead the bill at this point.
