"I went into this thing, win or loss, I wanted to make that statement. At the end of the day, I know I'm destined for greatness. Going [up] against a guy like Cody Rhodes, WWE champ for a reason. I might not have made it through, [and] I might not have beat Cody Rhodes but I shot from the low go and I hit rim on that. They could've picked anybody, there's a room full of them, but [they] came and they picked me second in the first round because they know that Carmelo Hayes is Him."
