“Now it can’t be said, I don’t want to crack on ‘big’, it’s just to say that there is mutual respect. He hasn’t come since my Forever ROH Championship. I might let him go for a few months or something before I decide to go after him. But you know what? In the eyes of moralists, it is worthless, no matter how cruel.”
