She was able to speak with Johnson for a few moments and during their exchange he shared that he cannot wait to get back in a WWE ring. "The Peoples Champion" then went on to explain what he loves the most about being in front of the millions and millions of his fans.

“Aww look I can’t wait to get back into a WWE ring.” Johnson said. “Everybody always asks me, you know, what’s it like being in a WWE ring? And I always tell them, I always tell everybody by the way, there’s a lot of celebrities and athletes too and fans, so there’s nothing like it. There’s nothing like [being] inside of a WWE ring because there’s a certain live crowd acumen, that there’s great connective tissue that is second to none and that was always, and will always be the best part of my job when it comes to wrestling--whether I’m actually wrestling a match or just giving a promo.” He continued, “Like that connection with the audience, there’s nothing like it.”

 

 A number of superstars who will be in the middle of that ring are the talents scheduled for this Sunday's 'Extreme Rules' PPV. Check out Fightful's "events" section to get a look at the match card for the event.
