"I'm not egotistical, but I'm just not giving one thought to this being my TNA Wrestling debut. Instead, I'm thinking about later this year and beyond, when there's no such thing as TNA Wrestling without my name attached to it. Eric seems like a very nice young man. I would like to apologize to him in advance. What I do to him Sunday at Lockdown is just my job," Bonaduce said.
