On The Shield's recent babyface turn: "It's just how things happen. It's been an interesting transformation, I suppose. But to be honest with you, we really haven't done much different. We just started targeting different people, I suppose. By that association, the fans just started to get with us. It's been fun. It's been a side to take for sure, but I think it's something that we're all pretty excited about."
On the young crop of WWE Superstars in the company today: "I think that with this new generation of guys, you talk about the Wyatt Family, you can talk about Daniel Bryan, the Usos, you can throw Cesaro in there. There's this next generation of dudes who are hungry, man. The Shield, coming into WWE, we wanted to change what was going on. We had seen the business stagnate for a good five years at least. Just guys not coming in being hungry, and not wanting to make change, not wanting to ruffle any feathers, feeling like they're walking on eggshells. Myself, Ambrose and Reigns, we were never like that. We're all alpha males, that type personality. We all want to be the best, be number one. From the very outset, we were just going to work harder than everybody else, put on better matches than everybody else, cut better promos than everybody else, be more interesting than everybody else. We didn't really care who that pissed off. I think that attitude resonated with a lot of other guys that we came across, especially in developmental -- and they brought that attitude up here with them. It's really a great time to be a WWE fan, because you've got a lot of very invested performers who are willing to make that sacrifice, to make that change."
On Daniel Bryan's rise through the ranks: "People say he ascended so quickly, but he's been in WWE for what, four years now? And before that he was on the indies for over decade. He's a guy who, if anybody's put in the time, it's him; if anybody's had a slow build to where they're at, it's him. It definitely seems like a skyrocket, just because of all the attention the Yes Movement has gathered, the way he's been positioned over the last six months particularly. But like I said, he's worked so hard, and I'm super happy for him. He deserves it. I'm real proud of him as a performer and as a friend."
On he and Dean Ambrose helping Roman Reigns: "He's smart enough to listen. He's smart enough to pay attention and pick up little things. He's someone who's a student of the game. He played football before he got here. He didn't spend as much time doing this as we had, but it's in his blood. His family's a huge part of this business. He's just a guy who's built for it. It's just part of him. We spend a lot of time in the car and a lot of time in the ring together, and stuff like that, so if he's not learning, then something's not right. But I think it's pretty clear that over the past 18 months that we've been teamed up up here that his progression and his development has been accelerated, to say the least."
