But when that happened, it was, and now that we're here in Vegas, she's like, “Dude, I found a tarantula in the garage.” I'm like, well, did you kill it? She doesn't worry about things like that and she's been with me for so long, she's my rock, she makes me a better person. The fact that she can still put up with all of this and deal with the craziness of everything I do truly makes me a blessed man.” (H/T Wrestle Talk)
