And a lot of fans, if I understand what you're trying to say here, sort of feel 'Are you kind of disappointed that you lost two times?' No, I'm not. I look back and say 'Wow, great opponent in Triple H. Biggest stage and platform of them all.' You know, wrestling fans remember me wrestling there. I don't think they're walking away thinking it sucked because I should have won. Maybe for a minute. But more so they'll remember that I was at WrestleMania.

Nick...

"You don't need to make it with WWE to be a successful wrestler. We're trying to change that perception and prove otherwise. The last few years, we've done better financially than a lot of guys in the WWE. No one knows that, but it's possible to make a living without them. It takes a lot of hustle, but it's possible."

Matt...

"Could we handle the WWE? We don't know. It's never been a real enough thing for me to even to know. Maybe one day will come and then I'll know how I feel about it. But if they want to make money, then the WWE is missing out by not having us. We are a proven draw without the WWE machine behind us."
