He said, “As you’ve probably seen or heard throughout the last few years. I want to apologize for my behavior, both professionally and personally.” Clark also added, “I take full accountability for my behavior over the last three years of my life. I want to apologize to the WWE organization for any unwanted attention. And negative press that I brought to your brand and your product. I want to apologize to the WWE fans and The Velveteen Dream fans,” he further apologized to the entire WWE firm. 

He added, “I want to apologize to Paul Levesque. Paul, you are such an understanding and patient man and leader and getting the opportunity to work with you and to learn from you. Also, I want to say I’m sorry to Shawn Michaels. Shawn, it’s still beyond me that I’ve been having the opportunity in this lifetime to learn from you.” Acknowledging his mistakes, he expressed remorse and gratitude for the lessons learned, addressing Triple H and Shawn Michaels. 

During the apology video, Clark extended apologies to his family and friends, including Tehuti Miles (Ashante Adonis), emphasizing that no one else should bear the burden of responsibility for his mistakes.
