Roman Reigns vs. CM Punk feud
I would not be remotely surprised to see that happen [Roman Reigns showing footage of CM Punk's UFC losses on the Titantron]. That'll be fun.
WrestleMania plans
I challenge the powers that be to make Nick Aldis and Drew McIntyre have a grudge match at WrestleMania. That would be freaking awesome.
I think it's a perfect undercard match, him [Jacob Fatu] and Drew McIntyre. I think it needs to be a stipulation.
NXT Stand and Deliver plans
I'm looking at Stand and Deliver. That's what's coming after Vengeance Day. That's our WrestleMania. There are two titles available. Maybe I take one or maybe I'll just have a feud with whichever girl wants to step to me.
NXT development
I wanted to come to NXT because I wanted to train. The facility is incredible, the coaches are incredible. I have Shawn Michaels every single week giving me advice.
NXT career
I won it [NXT Women's Championship] four months after my in-ring debut. That's the fastest anyone in NXT has ever won a championship.
NXT career trajectory
I've been in NXT for not even a year and it is my show... I'm looking at Stand and Deliver. That's our WrestleMania.
NXT Vengeance Day match
I wouldn't say I'm comfortable [in a street fight]. I'm uncomfortable because I'm going to hurt her. I'm probably going to hurt myself hurting her.
Career philosophy
I'm a strong believer in that [earning your dues]. I don't think you're above anything. And I think humility does pay off.
