Just put out the best product you can and you&#8217;ve proven you can. Focus on that. Now this is weird coming from me right? The guy who challenged Vince McMahon. The guy who gave away their finishes &#8230; but here&#8217;s the difference. I was actually competing with them. I was going head-to-head. Real head-to-head. Like, my show started at the same time his (Vince McMahon&#8217;s) show started each and every week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Shut up and wrestle.<\/p>\n<p>I have a few things to get off my chest today on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/83Weeks?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@83Weeks<\/a>.
