Wyatt, carrying a lantern, slowly comes to the ring. Wyatt says he’s grateful, and he’s very nervous. He says he never thought this would happen. Wyatt says he’s just being his genuine self. Wyatt is tearing up as he says he lost a lot in the last year; he lost his career, he lost his self-confidence, he lost people who were close to him, and he lost his way. He notes that he thought that everything he did in WWE was meaningless, but he was wrong. Wyatt says he went out into the world, and fans showed him that he made a difference in their lives. He says people would tell him he saved their lives because they were in a bad place. Wyatt says the fans were there for him when he was down, and the fans saved his life.
