BOBBY LASHLEY

When I go to Japan, they don't care if you win or lose; they just want to see a good fight.

My kids are my biggest motivation.

When you get put in a position like that, to shave off the hair of the boss of the company, they're putting a lot of faith in you, and they believe in you.

WWE is not just about fighting; we're about the community.

You can scout people as much as you want. At the end of the day, it's a fight, so you got to be ready for almost anything.

When somebody makes a decision on what they think they need to do, I don't question it at all.

One thing you gotta take into consideration is that it's professional wrestling, and you know it going in. There's dangers to every profession, and our particular profession, concussions is one thing.

I was excited 'Maxim' wanted me to be in Expert Fitness.

We have to start encouraging people to step out of their comfort zones and start doing new things. Anything anybody does new, there are a bunch of naysayers.

One of the best things I've ever been told is that it's better for someone to tell you to slow down than to speed up.

If you've never stepped in a wrestling ring, and you're with me, we can still have an excellent wrestling match, because that's how good I believe I am.

Money is not it for me. I love to travel and take care of my kids and be around my children.

Donald Trump was really cool. I think a lot of people don't understand him. He brings so much media attention to anything he does. He's a proven success. I think people should listen to what he says a little more than focusing on hair.

When I went to Impact, it was me proving myself on a daily basis to a lot of different people. I mean, I had matches with Austin Aries, matches with Jeff Hardy, Bobby Roode, Drew McIntyre. I mean, I wrestled everyone. During that time, I wasn't just sitting back saying, 'Man, I hope WWE picks me up. I hope they see me. I hope to get back.'

One of my first overseas trips with WWE was to France. I walked out of our hotel, and I see a little kid walking toward me with his mom. He gets a couple of steps past me and he stops in his tracks. I see his mom do a little bit of a double-take, then he runs over and just grabs on and starts hugging my leg as hard as he can, then he starts crying.

MMA - for me, it was something that I needed to challenge myself.

Being in the wrestling business, it was a whole lot to deal with in a short amount of time. I went from amateur wrestling one minute to, the next minute, I'm traveling the world, and I'm on the road 250 days a year.

I don't spoil myself on extravagant cars or spending money on jewelry. So I save a lot of the money I have.

If people will pay to see it, I'll fight anyone in any sport.

There's no secret I love professional wrestling. It's not just the money all the time, I love wrestling, and I love fighting.

I'm a father, and that is the absolute most important thing in my life.

I have a fanbase, and I have a large fanbase, and there's a lot of people that like me, and there's a lot of people that support me, and there's a lot of people that can relate to me.

If somebody has something negative to say, I'm a very - I won't say introverted, because I'm not introverted - I'm a very, just, calm person.

I don't want to be bothered when I'm stretching. I need to focus.

A.J. Styles is great - he's a great performer - so I'm not going to take anything away from him.
