"Whine and cry, it's filled my social media feed for over a week now, but that's what you guys do, is whine and cry when you don't get what you want," Corbin said. "But that's why all of you are sitting out there and I'm standing in this ring. Kurt Angle, he chose me as his WrestleMania opponent and honestly that's a fantastic choice. Did you not hear all of my credentials a few seconds ago? I'm the former Acting General Manager of Monday Night RAW, I am a former Golden Gloves champion, I am a former United States Champion, I am a former Money In the Bank champion, and I am a former Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal winner. And possibly after WrestleMania, actually as a matter of fact, after WrestleMania I will be your new Olympic gold medalist. So, keep whining and crying because it's not going to change what I'm going to do to Kurt at WrestleMania, and it's not going to change what I'm going to do to this guy right now."
