First of all,

Um, this is really kind of hard to talk about in the sense that I wasn't well liked in my whole life.

People had a lot of friends.

I was always popular in sports, kept on my teams.

And then you go into this new organization where you're not very well liked and you didn't really understand why.

Well, come to find out later, I got this guaranteed contract.

I have my wife flying everywhere I'm flying.

So I'm not hanging out with the guys, not going to the bars.

I'm not staying up and doing things with those guys or hanging out with guys.

And I'm with my wife all the time.

And then I started realizing that no one really wants to work with me.

And you're kind of an outcast.

And it's the worst feeling in the world.

So is this, is it jealousy?

You know, part of it is, I guess, you know, when you think about Stone Cold Steve Austin and Mick Foley just came in months before me for an opportunity.

Next thing you know, I'm the first guy that gets this not only guaranteed contract,

big signing bonus on top of it.

How did you negotiate this guaranteed contract?

Because I believe it was the first one that Vince McMahon had ever given out.

Right.
