WWE.com interview

Christian talks to WWE.com about departing from the company and what he has planned after leaving.

My contract came up on Oct. 31 and we negotiated back and forth a little bit. But it wasn’t about the money for me, really. There were some other things that were going on that helped sway my decision. It wasn’t a contract dispute, if that’s what you want to call it. It was a number of different things — I’ve been on the road with WWE for eight years straight, and it takes a toll on your body when you’re going 250-300 days a year.
