Kurt welcomes us to the call.

<b>Q. </b>At WM 19, when he [BROCK] did the shooting star, what went through your mind?

<b>A.</b> I wasn't sure if he was ok to go, I asked him and he responded, kinda, and we got to a standing position and we got to the finish and save the match, which could have been a disaster. Him landing the way he did was scary, but added to the match I feel. Anything can happen in wrestling.

<b>Q.</b> I think a lot of people are concerned with you for getting back into the ring. How will this be different, when you said you will be unleashed and not held back.

<b>A.</b> I never had the time to heal in the past. I will wrestle when I can go 100%, if I feel that I can't I won't wrestle, it is simple. Dixie has laid things out, and I will wrestle when I can and when they need me. I am a new name and face for TNA, and I have to be at the important events, but I will have time to rest and heal. I just can't go less than full bore, whether I have 5 or 10-years left, I will give the fans what they paid for.

<b>Q.</b> We heard that you were frustrated with WWE, would you elaborate?

<b>A. </b>I wasn't getting rest and the proper medical care. I was being buried into the ground. They would promise time off and then say I had to perform because others went out with injury. I felt I had to do it and they needed me, but also I was treated unfairly. They knew my history of injury, but they also put me out there when I needed the time off. I also had to do all the media appearances. I wanted to cut them to when I was on the road, not as extra days. I was very unhappy.
