“I would get to the arena super early all the time which actually just gave me more time to be nervous. But, there was one time in particular I remember, I was standing there in the ring, hours before doors. And, looking out at all the empty seats, thinking ‘in couple of hours, this place is going to be completely packed. And, there’s gonna be a person in every one of those seats, staring at me. Expecting me to do stuff. I gotta get better at stuff’.”
