I didn't get hugely famous really quick. It was a slow, gradual process, so I was able to sort of grow into myself and figure out who I was and what I wanted without the glaring spotlight on me telling me who I was.

Major success feels a bit like a coronation. Like I'd become a king. I was one of the most famous people in the world, loved and hated in equal measure. I couldn't see anything bad with it. It made me a happy person.

I'm the man that made wrestling famous.

I've had to deal, a lot, with my own sense of intimidation at meeting famous people - especially actors, but really any famous people.

It is more interesting to be compared to someone famous, because it lets you gauge what perceptions people have about your appearance.
