Can you guys tell that I cried? New York, thank you. Thank you for the love, WWE thank you, you guys are amazing, I love you, and to everybody, remember – we said it, we would not forget. Don’t forget all of those who have suffered, and that it was just this tragic, tragic moment in our history, but we have to remember to be united. We are Americans first. Unity, love first, alright? I love you, guys. Goodnight from New York.”
