Nothing is more exciting than WrestleMania or SummerSlam. The only thing I can compare it to is the Olympics, and the only problem is with the Olympics, I can't remember a damn thing. My mind was so focused, I can't remember who I wrestled, I can't remember the match, I can't remember receiving the award. It was my dream I always wanted to come true, and when it did I was in a state of shock. It wasn't even that I was happy I was relieved. People don't understand how hard amateur wrestlers work. Put it this way, if we're ever in a bar and we're having a few drinks, stay away from us, because amateur wrestlers are the baddest dudes on the planet. I've seen 118-pound wrestlers beat up pro football players. They're just intense, mean sons of [guns]. Any pro football will tell you that amateur wrestlers are tough bastards. It's because of their training, they're animals. If you're an amateur wrestler, you're stupid enough to abuse your body. The training is not training it's complete and utter abuse. You train until you're exhausted and ready to fall on your face, and that's when the training begins. Pro football players don't do that.
So what pro sports star would make the best pro wrestler?
You know what, Deion Sanders would be a tremendous pro wrestler, I'd love to have that son of a [gun] in our company. Charisma, I'd take any athlete with charisma. Jeremy Shockey would be one of the biggest bad guys we've ever had. Brian Urlacher would be a Stone Cold Steve Austin-type guy. Warren Sapp would be tremendous because of his charisma. T.O. would be awesome.
See, I think it's T.O. I think he was masterful this summer.
He caused a negative impact on football, but what he did was he made a spotlight out of himself. That's what wrestling's all about. T.O. would be perfect for wrestling.
Would he be a good guy or a bad guy?
Oh gosh, he'd be a bad guy first, then he'd be a good guy, because he's so damn arrogant. Ray Lewis would be great too. Actually, I want you to put this in your column: I would love to take on Ray Lewis at WrestleMania 22. Make sure you put the word out. Tell him I want his [hide] at WrestleMania 22. I think he's the most dominant player in the NFL and I'm the most dominant wrestler in the WWE. I think that would draw huge, huge pay-per-view buys.
