Quotes from Pete Dunne

The old style of British wrestling is a lot different than the American style, and that's what I was trained in. It's a lot more technical; it's something that even someone that young has the capacity to start learning.

For me, I've wrestled since I was 12 years old, so I've never had time off or been injured.

I thought I could go and make a bigger name for myself on the independents and possibly in Japan, places like that.

Obviously I'm really busy, fitting in WWE stuff and appearances like this now, all the events I've done and the SmackDown tours, then travelling. I've just been to Singapore, I've been to Canada... all over the world.

I've always had the mindset, even on independent shows, that even if the audience knew who I was, I was treating it as if they didn't. Every time I want to teach them who I am and show them what I'm about.

Trent Seven wouldn't have let me even go to a try-out wearing socks.

I was getting loads of tweets from people saying that Shawn Michaels had talked about me on Chris Jericho's podcast and then I got to meet Shawn Michaels when I was over in Florida.

When I started wrestling, WWE was a light at the end of the tunnel that no-one thought they could ever get to. Especially being British, only one or two people ever got there.

For myself and Tyler Bate to go out there and show what we can do in front of an audience that probably isn't that familiar with what we do, I'm grateful.

I personally haven't heard anything, but WWE haven't exactly been quiet about the fact that their aim is to do a full time UK brand show. They have been quite open about that from the start.

I can carry a brand. I did it in the UK with an entire brand basically built around me, and my in-ring work speaks for itself.

A lot of people ask do I want to do NXT, or do I want to do main roster. I would love to be able to start something new and build a UK brand that we can all be proud of.

In the UK brand, I would personally like to have a continued rivalry with Mark Andrews, he's always my favorite opponent and if I could do that in different stages with WWE then I would be really happy.

You won't see many flashy, fancy moves off me but you will see a gritty, hard hitting style, that you won't have seen before from many other people.

I'm lucky to have this career where I haven't spent time nailed down to one brand.

I've been able to travel the world and represent WWE, and have that stability of being part of that one company.

From my standpoint, I feel like I'm at the start of my career, I'm only 23-years-old but I have been doing it for 10 years.

I think I'll always be homesick. Even though Orlando is amazing and the sun's always out, I'll always miss Birmingham. I don't know what it is.

I'm an advocate for being full-blown vegan. That's my ideal way that I would love people to live, but the key to it is eating as little processed foods and a more whole foods-type diet as possible.

I've been vegan about, I think it's like three or four years now. So when I first went vegan, I remember saying it's a lot better and feeling like it. I've been vegan for so long, though, that I can't really remember how much of a difference it would make.

I don't worry about making enemies with what I do. This is all just business to me.

happiness isn't to be pursued, it is to be enjoyed. Like life.
