Sometimes it comes right down to just the hotel you stay in or the match you could have \u2014 all the things shifts your mood barely. This 12 months, my character on the time of WrestleMania is a little more undefined than it\u2019s been in lots of a few years. Normally, I walk into Mania and I do know exactly where I\u2019m at and what I\u2019m doing.\u201d <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u201cThis 12 months, this character shift and this sea change has been happening at the identical time with Trick rising and me getting these \u2014 I&#8217;d say polarizing reactions nevertheless it\u2019s sort of began to swing all the way in which in the opposite direction now to where I\u2019m unliked and I\u2019m sort of, as a personality, saying like, \u2018What did I even do here?\u2019 It\u2019s still on this week-to-week [thing], audience to audience is all different so it felt slightly less like surefooted, you understand what I mean?\u201d <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u201cThe vibe around WrestleMania was slightly strange this 12 months with the Pat McAfee thing being added on the last minute. I don\u2019t know, there was just so many things that felt slightly strange about this 12 months\u2019s WrestleMania. Ultimately, such as you said I didn\u2019t get to do Mania last 12 months in Vegas. I missed out on it so I sort of felt like, \u2018Oh, alright, here we go.\u2019\u201d <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\u201cWhenever you\u2019re actually within the ring and also you\u2019re actually in town doing meet and greets and stuff like that, I actually prefer it. It may be a tad overwhelming sometimes but again, what a privilege to have. If I&#8217;m going to WrestleMania 15 to twenty years from now and I\u2019m not at the middle of it, then you definately\u2019re not overwhelmed by it.
