It was weird, I saw the Brian Stann vs. Wanderlei fight, I thought, if I don't have another of those in me, there's no point in continuing. I never really cared about winning or losing, then don't put the product out there at all if it's going to be subpar.
You talk to people, and they don't understand our water. They come and turn on a tap and drink clean water, and to them, that's amazing.

I do actually enjoy the process of putting my thoughts down on paper and having people actually read them.
There are two things I want to be able to know when I walk into a fight, or with anything in life. And I'm not Superman, I'm not even that great at fighting. Those two things are: I have done everything in my power to prepare for this and I will not quit, no matter what.
I thought wrestling was the stuff where people jumped off ropes. So that was my experience with wrestling.
