He said: "I want to approach this from a real mature standpoint because I like Ronda Rousey, what she's done in MMA is incredible."
"We watched her growing up, snapping arms. I have a lot of respect for Ronda Rousey. Every time I've met her, it was very amicable. So when she's saying that, I don't think it's a personal attack on me by any means. I don't feel she's coming after me. I feel she's maybe using me as an example to express her dissatisfaction with maybe how she was treated in the WWE. But I can't speak on that because I don't know how she was treated.
"I don't think she's a hater. I think she might be unhappy with how her run in the WWE went, but I don't know anything really about that. All I know is how I work and the facilities and time that I've been given to make my matches as best as possible. I think the WWE recognises that when I put on a good match, which will happen every single time I perform, the outcome and the reaction of the fans are immense. It fills the audience.
"I think I've proven my value, both in and out the ring, on the mic, wrestling. The impressions that I'm delivering the company are second to none."
