On the most recent episode of Ryan Satinās Out of Character podcast, Matt Riddle discussed the CGI doves that appear during entrance and who came up with the idea:
"Iāll give you the full story of the doves and why I think theyāre so cool. They wanted Doves to fly out. I said, āDoves? Well, Iām the U.S. Champion. Why not eagles?ā They said, āEagles are a little bit too big.ā I said, āHow about a stallion or horses running out of my feet?ā They said, āHorses are too big.ā I said, āWhy birds?ā They said, āVince really likes the birds.ā I said, āYou know what? If Vince likes the birds, I love these birds. Letās kick these birds off my flip flops everyday. Iām birdman. Letās do it.ā The fact that Vince thought they were so cool and awesome, I said, āWell, if Vince thinks they are so cool and awesome, I think thatās cool and awesome.ā Thatās where the birds came from. Iāll be honest. I donāt really argue about stuff too much. Iām very laid back. I think thatās why Iāve had so much success. I donāt politick too much. I have a good time and I work well with others."
