I have no intentions of getting in a UFC cage at all!

The whole Demon character was designed for people to hate me more and to be scared of me, and it kind of backfired in the sense that people kind of like it now.

I want to be part of the growth of NXT.

I spent a lot of time in Japan. To me, I felt like my career was kind of marooned out there. I didn't realize the extent of the reach that New Japan had in America and around the world.

I've always got a couple of tricks up my sleeve.

I grew up watching wrestling my whole life, so to get the chance to step in the ring that I've watched on TV so many times is a dream come true.

I've seen a lot of different training schools and dojos, and the sheer level of professionalism at the Performance Center and the state-of-the-art facility just knocked me for a six. It really blew me away.

I've been put into a lot of situations that could be stressful. That's really helped me mature, both as a performer and as a man.

I don't do well in social environments.

People won't believe this, but I don't really like being the center of attention.

The dojo system in Japan is something very unique. It prepared me not only for wrestling in the States and around the world, but it also prepared me for how to handle myself as an adult in the real world.

I'm not a very emotional person.

When I first went to Japan, I was wrestling under my real name. The Japanese people have a great amount of difficulty with the letters f, r and l. So three out of the six letters in my first name they couldn't say. It was a bit of a mouthful for those guys.

I'm normally a really humble guy.

I don't see why we should alienate anyone, regardless of sexual orientation, nationality, religion, ethnicity.

Ireland has always been a nation of great athletes from the past: in the nineties, we had Sonia O'Sullivan and Steve Collins.

You can only get better by challenging yourself.

I still can't believe I'm a professional wrestler in the first place. That hasn't sunk in yet. I'm sure I'll look back when I'm 50 or 60, if I make it that far, and think about everything that's happened.

I love retro culture. I love retro games; I love retro music.

To see a hacker actually hacking is not the most interesting thing visually, and it's pretty boring as an actor: a hacker taps on her keyboard. There's really not much more than that.

I mean if anyone's comfortable being famous, they're a psychopath.

I do ride my bike a lot.

For me, I need to listen to music in the morning, and after, it's kind of like a shower, you know what I mean? It's kind of getting rid of everything. I always play music after I act. It's not a conscious thing, like, 'Oh finally, I need to do this,' it's kind of a constant need.

It's going to sound cheesy, but if I have family and friends I don't really care where I am.

Well, I kind of did the math in my head when I was like, 9. I was like, 'Well, if I want to make films' - because I want to be a director - 'I could just go on a film set and learn there.' And then I ended up falling in love with acting and the set and making friends all the time. And so I've just been doing that ever since.

I love being Canadian.

I'm good at reading people. If I wasn't an actor, I would be a psychologist.

My whole thing is having the perfect balance. Let's say I go to school. I have a day at school. That's the perfect amount of reality. Then I go and play music with my band. Then I go home and hang out with my family and my pets. I think that's the perfect amount of reality time.

I'm definitely not eager to grow up, but I do like some adult stuff.

I wanted to do something in film. I wanted to make my own movies. Something clicked in my brain, like, 'Oh, I can physically act! I can go on open casting calls and audition for something.'

My dad is a screenwriter, so he always used to watch movies for inspiration when I was a baby. I would watch movies with him, I guess, in the background.

When I was younger, I acted in some Shakespeare stuff; I did one Shakespeare camp.

I don't take the Internet and social media very seriously. I've grown up around social media but to me what happens on the Internet just doesn't feel real.

I love acting, of course, and I would still love to keep acting, but I want to try my hands at so many things.

I definitely do have a persona onstage. I definitely am a completely different person, but I'm still having a lot of fun and there's a lot of acting that goes into it. But I haven't been playing many shows when I'm working on acting as much because it's tiring, number one. And number two, it's hard for your mind to makeup what it wants to do.

I love learning on set, it's the best acting school ever.

If I lounge around for too long, I get really bored. I have to be doing something.

Meeting Ryan Reynolds was really cool, and Blake Lively.

I've been asked to school dances.

I don't want to be mean to people. I try to be as nice as possible to everyone.

I was raised in a household where kids' opinions were just as valued as adults and I think that was important for me.

Honestly, if acting never worked out, I would have done music.

Everyone wants to be funny. Maybe not everyone, but to an extent.

People deal with death differently; some even laugh at funerals.

Sewer rats are really gross.

Okay, I like the Clash. I like Tears for Fears. I like A-ha.

One day I'm going to open up a club or a concert venue where it's all ages and really fun. That'd be awesome.

The biggest thing for me, I hate going to concerts where no-one's moving. Everyone should be dancing and having a good time.

I love doing both animation and live acting.

I think if I'm with a friend group, I try to be as funny as possible, and I don't always succeed, obviously.
