I think that's something that I definitely looked at, I was inspired by, and something that I've tried to do in my own stuff.
The Miz, it's him, it's Cena, it's all these different guys, they might not know anything that they're going to say when they go out there, and then it's literally all impacted by how the crowd's reacting and what they're doing.
