"That time-honored tradition... that is the biggest bunch of bullsh*t I've ever heard. It almost goes against the grain of every territory, and really even in through Hulkamania days and the 90s... what do you do to a legend? You protect them. You make up for their shortcomings in the ring... you kind of respect and take care of the integrity of the business.""The most important or valuable customers that paid, on average, 850 bucks for one guy... they weren't there to see anything other than John Cena’s last match. When you have the entire arena chanting the things that they chanted, and them saying, 'oh yeah, this is the exact desired reaction.' Maybe it is. Maybe that is the desired action going to... but time-honored tradition bullsh*t, that that's silly.""Why do I think it was the single dumbest finish? Because I think it is a direct slap in the face of our industry. Never give up. Do you know how impactful it is if I'm in a room full of bankers or TV executives... and I can look them in the face and a non-wrestling fan and say, 'Do you know who holds the record for the most Make-A-Wish visits in the history of that organization? It's a professional wrestler. Yes, it's John Cena.' His whole mantra, hustle, loyalty, respect... Never give up. And you're gonna get this bullsh*t that we got to get heat on a heel in a time-honored tradition? Conrad, it's the silliest, most ridiculous argument that people are throwing up.""Gunther, he got some heat. There's no doubt about it... But when Hunter came through the curtain... and they booed the shit out of him, it's almost as if, like, he got that ref heat. And ref heat don't draw money. It never have and never will... Sure Gunther is going to get some heat, but the real heat out of that match was on creative and that doesn't draw money."
