Why Johnny Why?  That is the question he has been asked.  He has been very open.  Aleister, you talk about a path but Johnny says he is on a path too.  Johnny says this is the path he took the night they met.  The path to Tommaso Ciampa was the path to right the wrong and be the one to beat Tommaso for the title.  You got in the way.  It is collateral damage.  It is nothing personal.  You walk around here like you own the place.  Black Mass anyone without anyone batting an eye.  Johnny says he is the good guy.  He is the hero at the end of this story.  Johnny says he does one thing that people consider evil and everyone freaks out.  Johnny says he is the same.  He fights for what is right.  Sometimes, you have to fight a little dirty.  You might want to kicks his face off and that is fine.  Johnny says he accepts that and maybe he deserves that.  After everything he has been through, he is not afraid of Aleister.  Johnny says he lives in a dark place and he is not afraid of the dark any more.  Johnny says he is starting to like it.  Johnny asks if that looks familiar because that is the same spot he left you laying.  At War Games, he leaves you laying again.
