It made me believe, hell yeah, I could be the face, Uce.
Jey made it clear that becoming World Champion isnt just a goalits inevitable in his mind. Yeah, I want the title, he declared. Ill take it off of anybody, just give me the shot. Gunther, whoever it is, Cody Rhodes, we can run it. Im telling you, Im gonna get the big one. No one believes that, just like they doubted me the whole time. Its all good. Im used to that. Its just fuel to the fire. But Im gonna get that, Im gonna get it. Im putting it out there right now.
