And I just think what it is, is sometimes when you get so close to something, you start to not see the forest for the trees, okay?

Like you start getting caught up in the moves and caught up in the spots and trying to like build, I don't know, excitement or whatever.

And excitement is part of the game.

It's just one tool, okay, in the toolbox.

But really, the game is making people feel things.

That's the game.

The moves are the tools and the mechanisms to get people to feel things.

And at its core, when you're doing these moves, the concept that underpins it all is that this is a struggle between two athletes and two fighters, and this is important to these two people.

And I almost feel like that super simple concept, which is supposed to underpin the whole thing,

that kind of gets lost when you start getting too technical about this spot or that spot or this move or that move, and you start to kind of miss the point.

And, you know, the higher up the totem pole you get in WWE, you start to see and maybe, you know, maybe there's a chicken and egg thing.

Maybe it's because I see it that I started to rise higher and higher up the totem pole.

But in order to get there and stay there, you have to be able to see the forest for the trees.

You have to see what the real thing is and its struggle and its feelings.

And it's and that's all it is.

And, and the, you know, the moves, you know, I'm not saying anything revolutionary here.

I'm sure you've said this a million times on this show, I'm sure.

But like the moves are, those are our tools to tell the story, but the story is the thing.

And the struggle is the, is what underpins it all.

If it's not a struggle, if it's too clean, if it's too easy, it's like, well, you know, I don't know.
