>[On Mitsuharu Misawa] . I knew that I could always be a WWE Superstar if I put in the effort and gave it my all but I don't think I could have ever been a professional wrestler without Misawa-san. There were a lot of younger guys in the back who were huge fans of his from watching tapes and all that so it really rubbed them the wrong way that creative put me with him when I'm just this reality TV guy but I learned so, so much from him. I was so green back then, greener than the gear he wore, and after every match where we teamed up he would make me do like a hundred squats and he would take a seat right there playing his Nintendo or PSP or whatever he had and would just play his games until I did however many he told me to do and then he'd give me a towel to wipe myself off and explain all the things I messed up on and demonstrate what I should have done. He was the best.
