How do you build a story that people care about? "It's like watching a movie. You can go to a movie like some Hollywood blockbusters that they spend $200 million on, but it's shit because it's just all a bunch of effects and set pieces, there's no characters that you can relate to, and the plot isn't good. And then you can go see another movie that maybe cost $500,000 to make, but it's one of the greatest movies of all time, because you connect with these characters that you're watching, and that's what wrestling is. "It's all based on that. I tell everybody in the business, the young guys and girls that come in, like it's work on your character and connect with the audience. If you can do that, you'll always have a job. Not just in wrestling, but in show business.
