- He says he's seen screenshots of the new TNA video game but has not played it yet. Says it looks awesome.

- He was asked about AJ Styles and his promos. He thinks AJ feels comfortable around him and they goof around backstage. He says he thinks AJ is getting more confident and says he's 'unbelievably talented' in the ring. He says he's sure Christian vs. AJ will happen down the line.
- When asked what he does to call a match, he said he likes to go out and feel the crowd. He says you work with it and see what happens. He says it depends on the performer and what they are comfortable doing.
- He was asked about TNA creative. He said everyone is adjusting to the new two hour format. He says he thinks the shows have been good and once the characters get more established people will really get a feel for the product.
- He was asked about the next milestone for TNA. He says he would like to see TNA PPV's go on the road more often. He says he likes the Orlando crowd but said when they go on the road the crowds are so much hotter. He praised the Atlanta, GA Bound For Glory PPV as a very lively crowd.
