“I don’t know if you all know, some of you weren’t born at time, but next year is the 30-year anniversary of SummerSlam 1992.
“I’ve been talking about this non-stop because I’m gonna make it happen one way or another.
“I’ll say it once, I’ll say it a million times, the UK is going to get a significant pay-per-view if it’s the last thing I do.”
