He sits down with Chris Van Vliet in Orlando, Florida to talk about his return to WWE and why he didn't come back as Tye Dillinger, why he left AEW, why he didn't return at the 2024 Royal Rumble, being previously known as Stan and being superkicked by Shawn Michaels at Cyber Sunday 2006, the accidental chair shot on Cody Rhodes that led to his nickname of "The Chairman", how being a dad has changed things, his wife Cassie Lee and if she intends to come back to wrestling and more.
