“Obviously, there was the chamber that happened, but I remember after that – MSG show, I’m on it, I don’t know what I’m doing. Go to the locker room, there’s the card that shows all the matches from bottom to top. At the very top, it has ‘WWE Championship Main Event: Brock Lesnar vs. …..’ and it’s just blank.
“I’m just standing there, and I’m like, ‘Man, why do they gotta do this?’ I’m the only one whose name isn’t on this list and I had to be here. And I’m the only one in this locker room that doesn’t have a match. That night was great, man. The match was quick, but it was great. That experience alone, and also, not only with Brock but with Paul Heyman. It was great and an awesome moment. I can always say I main evented MSG with Brock Lesnar for the WWE title.”
