Now, remember guys are jumping ship.
You'll see one guy on raw one week and next week he's on nitro or something.

So they had to completely change my, my character.

Whatever they're going to come up with is going to be great.
I mean, they made the undertaker.
They made all these great characters, right?
I remember they flew me in for, um, um, to talk about what they're going to have me do.

Mark Merrow?
I go,

He goes, can you do a Tarzan yell?
