“I was shooting the Mandolin, plus trying everything in my power to be in the main event of WrestleMania, so ofcourse I don’t want all of this stuff to get out. So you don’t know what Vince is going to do, I don’t know if what he is going to change because Vince is very … I was in a storyline with Bianca, Carmella and I’m Carmella’s … who does the wine, the guy shows you the wine [sommelier] sommelier and Vince was so obsessed with me and the sommelier … oh my god, he wanted us to be together and all this stuff … so me and Sarath decided to keep it a secret.”
