Early Four Horseman is absolutely terrific.

I honestly keep to myself often and I keep my circle small.

Because I love making people mad. It is my favorite pastime.

I'm honestly offended whenever someone says I'm being harsh.

I'm a good person and that's what I am at the end of the day.

I had a full-ride football scholarship as a middle linebacker.

March 15th is the most important day of the year. It's my birthday.

I do things my way. I don't do things to make people happy or appease them.

I'm as old-school as it gets in this modern era. I'm the last of a dying breed.

Once I saw Roddy Piper I knew exactly what I was going to be doing when I grew up.

Anybody who knows me knows I'm a handful, I'm aggressive, I'm loud, I'm obnoxious.

I look at it like this: I'm being myself, everybody else in my industry is faking it.

So, I couldn't care less Joe Manganiello's opinion on anything I have to say on Twitter.

I've had fans try and jump the guard rail. I've had fans key my car. I've had fans try to stab me.

For some strange reason a lot of people in my age demographic don't want to listen to veterans of this sport.

I'm a once in a lifetime professional wrestler. I'm something that people are never going to get to see again.

I was at House Of Hardcore for Tommy Dreamer. Good guy, great guy, great eye for talent - that's why he booked me.

Personally, I would miss a wedding. I would miss childbirth. I would miss a bar mitzvah just to see me talk at all.

Just let me give you a regular, good old-fashioned body slam in the ring. You won't be able to walk for a week. I'm a superman.

I do not need anybody telling me how to do my thing. I do not care how great they are, if it is somebody I respect, I will listen.

The fact that these fans don't understand that a ring is comprised of steel, metal beams, wood, and a thin sheet mat, and that's it.

I am AEW born and bred. I will be AEW until I die. This is my company. This is where I started. This is the company that I'll end in.

Nothing I say is harsh. What I do say is the truth. If people have a problem with that, they need to realize that's on them. That's not on me.

I've never talked about being Jewish in a promo ever. But my name is just so blatantly a Jewish name. It's not like my name is Maxwell Jacob Smith.

Jon Moxley - great performer. I'm sure he's a nice guy. But at the end of the day, I think people are sick and tired of him, you know, being the captain of the ship.

I've always loved old school wrestling: Tully Blanchard, Arn Anderson, Ric Flair, Sting, Hot Stuff Eddie Gilbert. To me, that's the golden age of professional wrestling.

Let me tell you something about Joe Manganiello - I don't care, dude. The most impressive thing that you have on your cinematography is that you got beat up by Spiderman.

What I care about is making money. What I care about is making waves. What I care about is going down as one of, if not, the greatest professional wrestlers to have ever lived.

It might be okay for somebody else on the roster to sit on the sideline but it's not okay for me to be. I'm the franchise player, I'm the guy on both the microphone and in the ring.

Shawn Spears, he is a scumbag. He decided, after years of friendship with one of the greatest men to ever live Cody Rhodes, to waffle him with a chair. No one should be laying a finger on that man, he is a saint.

Right now, at the age of 22, I'm making a living off of this and I'm building, not only just my brand, but I'm also building myself bell-to-bell. I'm building myself when that red light's on and I want to keep doing it.

The future of AEW is Maxwell J. Friedman, without a shadow of a doubt. I am going to be the face of this company. At the tender age of 23... people think I'm great now? They don't know the half of it. I mean, my career's only just begun.

For those of you who aren't aware I am Jewish, the name might have given it away, and there were no other Jewish kids on my football team, so it was an adjustment for me because the kids didn't exactly love the fact that there was a Jewish kid taking their spot.

What I care about is making sure that when the people watching me put their head to their pillow, I'm the last thing they think about. Not because I hit the coolest moves, not because I'm putting my body on the line for their entertainment, but because I'm captivating.

There were people that grabbed you just by talking, and that's what I loved about professional wrestling when I started out. That's why I'm already so good. That's why people literally hang on the edge of their seats when I have a mic because they want to know what I'm going to say.
