NXT Stand & Deliver card order

I felt like this [contract signing] was an insult to the women's division, which has run circles around these guys for months now. It's a joke having this go on last.

NXT Stand & Deliver main event

Last year me and Ethan Page opened Stand & Deliver and now this year we're closing Stand & Deliver, so it's a lot of pressure behind that.

NXT booking criticism

When you don't have another TV show before your premium live event, you should not be ending a go-home show with confusion and a question mark when it comes to deciding a number one contender.

NXT brand perception

NXT is a third brand. The wrestling that we have on this television show is rivaled with not only the other brands within this company but other companies out there in the world.

Backstage creative process

It happens a lot more than you think [that creative plans change due to injury or other factors], and I do think that people try their hardest to pivot as best they can.

NXT roster competition

I think the women on the roster are incredible... every time one of us has to follow them there's a heightened level of like, we have to follow that. So let's make sure we can. We got to keep up.

Career highlights

I have two pinch myself moments: working with Ricky Steamboat and my match with Sting, his first match back after eight years.

NXT Stand & Deliver expectations

I'm going to go 92, A-. That's a pretty high grade for a pre-show expectation. This is going to deliver and man, it has the potential to exceed that number.
