"AJ gave me so much and he was complimentary and has opened the doorways to allow me to not only make a lot of money but to inspire the next generation. I'm extremely grateful for that and I'm so just thankful that I can be in a position where so many guys have come up to me and said, 'You're the reason I got into wrestling.'"
