Actually I'm doing it because it helps promote my book. I work Monday through Friday... I don't need to go wrestle definitely, but it does help promote my book and it gets me out there to an audience that cannot be denied. Plus I found that I love it. Now I did something wrong, you see all my caps and gowns, I'd given away to charity. All my trunks, I've given away to charity. I have no boots. I had decided that I'd already wrestled my last match. I have to admit, I'd like to apologize to anybody who saw me in January, that I did wrestle but I was not properly supported.

The feeling I have right now, getting ready to go to Detroit to play for a world championship ... it's just tremendous.
