It's just amazing. I told (teammates) it's just a weight off their shoulders. The little (worry) that was there is gone now.

I told my coach that I've never felt so good in my life before a match in my life. We finally got one.

I can't really believe it happened so fast. I watched the tournament when I was a little kid, the whole time wondering when it was going to be my turn, and it is.

I like this place a lot. I was real nervous about how I'd react when I first came in. This isn't anything compared to some tournaments I've wrestled in before. This feels like just another Saturday tournament. (But) there's a lot of cameras and a lot of reporters.

We wanted to step it up and show everybody that we're for real. We're starting to peak, hopefully.

I worry about scientists discovering that lettuce has been fattening all along. . . .
