Can you do inter-gender matches? Ronda Rousey and our match at Wrestlemania – sure, it can be done. Women don’t need a man in their match to steal the show.

We’re bringing a focus on wrestling. We’re bringing an emphasis on wrestling matches and action taking place in or around the ring.

When you’ve won a lot of matches you know how to play the important moment – you have a great feeling on court, confidence. You know what you have to do, when to go for the shots or when to play solid. It’s really clear in your head, and you trust in your hands.

Guys like Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal know how to win matches, they don’t need to have as much confidence as other players.

I produce the most exciting matches with pretty much any person on the roster. Pick any guy on the roster, and I can tell you a match I had with them that people can still remember.

What hurts most is whenever I am leading, and then I lose the match, it is disappointing, and there are so many such matches.

I watch a lot of Kevin Nash’s matches. I use a lot of his stuff. I definitely use a lot of his mannerisms.

WrestleMania has to have 7 or 8 matches that have value in order to sell that show because people are coming from around the world to see it. When you sell 100,000 tickets, that’s not based on one match. There’s a lot of interest in a lot of matches.
I want to be a champion. I want to be a long-reigning featherweight champion. I want to be known in the history books: my name everywhere as a champion. And then, later on in my career, when I start getting good, then I can start doing the exhibition matches for money and stuff.
I’m not a big fan of watching my matches.
With Ajax and Liverpool, you win about 80 per cent of matches.

I always do my utmost both in training and during matches.

I know if I’m doing the right things and if I do the right work, I’ll win those long matches, and the success will come itself. This is not something I think of on a daily basis.
My greatest point is my persistence. I never give up in a match. However down I am, I fight until the last ball. My list of matches shows that I have turned a great many so-called irretrievable defeats into victories.
I’m proud to have played 14 matches at the World Cup with the number ten shirt and to have scored eight goals.
Maybe, one other match better; but if you look at the tournament as a whole, I played very high quality tennis for seven matches and raised my game when I needed to.

The scouts are watching matches and we have a huge amount of data we purchase and a pyramid approach in terms of delivering that information to our chief scout and his team who are assessing it.
The Premier League is guided by this dynamic: ball lost – ball recovered – ball lost again. That makes matches unpredictable, teams must be objective and behave like that because that’s what excites fans.
Excitement was there because I had the realisation of having matches that weren’t always TV matches, that weren’t always strict on timelines or storylines and more so focused on the wrestling, different opponents I hadn’t worked before and a lot of one-on-one matches.
The most important thing is definitely success on the tennis court. I know that if I win matches, everything else will fall into place, and the money and sponsors will follow.

As a kid, I used to see how Sachin Tendulkar used to win matches under pressure for India in Sharjah or other places. So I was always keen to repeat the same in similar situations.

One match that really sticks out for me, there’s a bunch of matches with all the guys that I worked with. For me, when I got in the ring, I approached it as being real because I was a real character. I didn’t have a gimmick name; I didn’t have a gimmick finish.
Back in the day when I started on the independent scene, guys would not watch women’s matches, and if they did, they would do it to make fun of us.

Well, the memories were obviously – every match is important, every point counts, especially the last sort of 18, 20 years when the matches have been so tight.
I think fans always want something new, but they want somebody who can deliver – to go out there and really entertain them and have good matches.
I’ll take all my matches against WWE’s best matches, I’ll put it up against Ring of Honor‘s best matches, or whatever promotion you want, and I guarantee people will be more entertained with my matches than theirs.
The secret of having a successful promotion is having an awesome promotion with wrestling matches that people like.
There is always pressure in all matches in the World Cup. This is when you must go beyond your capacity as a competitor.
The regular things in my life now – training sessions and playing matches – will all fall away. That will leave a big empty space and it will need to be filled.
In the Premier League you know you’ll play a certain amount of matches so you can always think ‘I’ll put it right next week’ if you lose.
I do think that a school day that matches the work day makes a lot of difference for working families, but the big driver of this effort is education. Period. We have a lot of students not gaining the skills they need, and it is pretty clear that school does not offer enough time to get that job done.
I have a bunch of storylines that I could pass to other performers or especially all my knowledge that I have when it comes to building matches, to creating an exciting finish or telling stories in the ring.
I think the fact that Brock Lesnar is not on the road 52 weeks a year, is not on ‘Monday Night Raw’ every episode, is not performing 300 matches per year… I think that dictates to the public, ‘Brock Lesnar is special.’ That an appearance by Brock Lesnar in an of itself is newsworthy. It’s not commonplace.
I had the pleasure of learning how to wrestle long matches and use psychology.
Spanish League is very tough, especially away matches.
Everything matches black, especially black.
You are born with a voice. And in a way, you don’t choose what you want to sing. It’s the quality of your voice that matches a certain repertoire, and that’s what you’re going to sing.
Soccer matches should be something special, something people eagerly look forward to, something that brightens life.
I played over 130 matches, including four finals, so there have been many great moments.
My aim is to play Test matches. For me, there is a different feel of Test cricket as it tests your character. You come to know about your mental toughness, and most importantly, there is another level of satisfaction as a player.
Football officiating is so subjective – much more subjective than any other sport. But the more I watch – and I watch too many matches – the more impressed I am with referees.
When you get older, 10 matches a year are enough.
When I was leaving WWE, I’d started becoming interested in applying parkour to the matches and using the ring environment in fun, new ways.
I watch a lot of old-school wrestling, and one of my favourite matches is my dad vs my step-dad at Starrcade ’85, Magnum TA vs Tully Blanchard. In that match everything looked so aggressive, everything was so real, and it looked like a brutal fight.
A lot of my intensity in wrestling was due to my mental preparation before the matches. I got myself into a different world.
Getting 20 wickets in test cricket will win you matches and that will be the focus.
I think Kohli is magnificent in a run chase, I have to say. He has won so many matches for India.
Innovation in an existing company is not just the sum of great technology, key acquisitions, or smart people. Corporate innovation needs a culture that matches and supports it.
Obviously, I love Boston. I love the passion. It kind of matches my personality. The fans, I almost feel like they’re just as passionate as me.
Politicians wishing to set a better tone should have the discipline to avoid televised cage matches.
OK – we like to say how a striker creates space and influences matches in other ways, but let’s not pretend: at the end of the season, the best striker everyone talks about is the top scorer.
We are at a point now where people respect us and respect our work – the guys want to sit down and watch women’s matches.
Definitely I feel with more matches, I’m the type of player I win a match or few matches, then I get confidence right away and then I play better and better.
It’s not always about wins and losses, but winning two Survivor Series matches is something I will never forget.
Fortunately for me, I discovered Ring of Honor. And I saw guys who were much smaller in stature but were putting on these amazing matches that I had never seen in WWE before. So I thought, at the very least, I’d love the chance to be able to wrestle in a company like that someday.
After your career, you go to matches, and you see so many unnecessary goals because a person is just looking where the ball is and not his opponent. Well, a ball alone has never scored a goal.
What everyone wants to see are exciting football matches where fans get behind the team that they support.
Ivan Koloff was great. I had a lot of great matches with him.
Sometimes players can have some ups-and-downs after they have done well and then lose a few matches in a row.
