The year is only a couple days old, so folks are in a reflective mood. The Superstars of WWE are no exception, as these Tweets from some of the wrestlers who came up through the company’s Orlando-based Developmental system about starring on Raw from Tampa tonight (Jan. 2) show.

Others with a positive message about working hard and pursuing your dreams (with a reminder those inspirations are coming via a cocky heel champ):

Also, I'm good...but you knew that already.
And leave it to the Hugster to just miss a friend who’s now on a different brand:
