I haven't really thought much about anything more because I was approached to do a job. (...) I was brought in to do a job tonight and that's what I'm here to do," said Cormier. "I'm not worried about anything else. I've always been a fan. I've got friends here. I've got enemies here. I've just got a lot of things that tie me to this company and I like it. (1:01:50 - 1:02-14)
