A joke bombing on stage doesn't bother me, especially if it's intended to bomb.

It's difficult to differentiate between a story that's humorous and clever and one that actually makes people laugh out loud.

I remember the first time I smelled B.O. was at a cross-country meet. But it wasn't unpleasant, in a strange way. That's what you got when you worked hard.

I think people know by now that I do my own writing.

Maybe I should have taken it easy on the smaller shows especially, but all in all, I have no regrets.

I think you can always learn lessons by the guys who came before you.

It's funny: wrestlers and comics bond over remembering their best shows and their absolute worst shows.

Without knocking Impact Wrestling, your contribution was largely limited to what you could do in the TV show. WWE is a bigger company with a bigger infrastructure and a lot more ways to make a contribution.

Back in 2004, Vince McMahon basically told me to consider WWE to be my playground, and that I could come and play any time I wanted to.

I cannot look back and say I did everything I wanted to do in TNA.
