Duct tape, are you serious? Really? Duct tape, thatโs something Hornswoggle would doโ
Even when heel Batista was trying to be serious he was unintentionally funny.
Hornswoggle recalls the time Big E hit "breaking point" when Swoggle was bullying him:
"I bullied Big E a lot. I always bullied Big E. I wasn't bullied growing up, I'm very thankful for that. I wasn't bullied in WWE, people didn't wanna mess with Fit (Finlay), that's just why. So I was like the closet bully at times.
"I picked on Khali a lot. I would just poke and prod, and poke and prod, until he got his hands on me, then, 'Nope, I'm good for today!'"
"Big E, riding, I poked and prodded, and he actually texted Woods and Kofi, 'I don't know if I can put up with Dylan (Hornswoggle) anymore. He just keeps bullying me. He won't stop.'
"So they were finally like, 'Just put him in his place.'
"I always had a backpack with all my stuff, my entertainment stuff, laptop, stuff in it. We were walking into a building, was bullying him that day, and he just walked in behind me, and he booted me, from the backpack. Boom!
"And I, as Kofi describes it, I Superman'd, and I landed right on my face, and my backpack hit, and E didn't even say a thing. And I literally got up, I look at Kofi and go, 'Breaking point?' He goes, 'Yeah I think that was his breaking point.'
"And I literally walked up and said, 'Yeah I deserved that.' And he goes, 'Oh yeah you did.' I would like to say it stopped, but it didn't stop. It was never mean-spirited."

Former WWE star Hornswoggle gets emotional thanking Stephanie McMahon for always being there for him โค๏ธ
"I want to thank you for being my number one supporter. In my time with WWE, and post, you have been my number one supporter. Whether it be in-ring, whether it be outside the ring, whether it be book stuff, you've always been a person to just give me a pat on the back and go , 'Hey, you're doing okay.'
"I don't think you've told many people this, so I'm gonna break it. I was doing the storyline where we were kind of brother and sister, and I was going through a breakup at the time, and I was going through a bad spot in my life.
"It was in Milwaukee, and I remember you pulling me aside, and you going, 'Hey, I know you're going through a lot right now, but this and everything you're gonna do is really gonna help take your mind off it.'
"And you going to bat for me with Be A Star stuff. That's all I wanted to do, was help with the Be A Star community and ambassador stuff.
"And you just being someone I could go to, when, in this crazy entertainment world we work in and live in, there are people, but at times you feel that... you're not being blown off so much, but you just need an ear. And you were always that. And you were always one to respond to me immediately, if not immediately, pretty fast, as crazy busy as you've always been. That is something I really take to heart.
"(Our relationship) has always been something that I've never taken for granted, and I've always been very, very happy for. You did a tweet about the book and you didn't need to do that. I was fully out of the company at the time."
