Below are some highlights from the interview.

On being in the “Elimination Chamber” match:

“I feel terrible, to be honest,” Reigns told ESPN as he walked to the locker room. “You go through your training and you go through your developmental, but nobody teaches you how to wrestle in a structure like the Elimination Chamber or Hell in a Cell. These aren’t things that you learn to do when you’re coming up. They take their toll on you.”

On the negative reaction that he receives from most fans:

“I just do me,” Reigns said. “There’s a lot of situations where you just have to learn by fire. You get thrown into the deep end and you have to learn how to swim. For me, I just try to take it in stride and go out there and do my thing and handle it how I have. That’s the only way I can really respond is going out there and being me, and that’s the truest way to do it. I’m not going to change me to please other people.”

On facing Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania:

“It almost makes it old school when no one knew what was happening because people know how dangerous Brock Lesnar really is. They’ve seen in him in the Octagon; they’ve seen the savage he can be. It’s an honor to be in there with someone so legitimate. That just shows how much passion he has for our business, to bring his career, his reputation, his accolades and all he has achieved in MMA and put it on the line here.”

They also discuss validation from UFC stars, headlining his fourth WrestleMania and more.
