So I really go I need to be able to have the freedom that I could go to Mexico, I could go to Japan, I could go to Germany, I could go anywhere, and then not have to be like, well, it has to be based on someone else&#8217;s schedule. Scott D&#8217;Amore was begging me. He&#8217;s like, three years, two years, six months. And I mean this in a very positive way. He goes, \u2018Dude, you&#8217;re gonna love it here. Wait until you see the locker room. You would be a huge piece here.&#8217; And, I mean begging. \u2018Give me something about where you&#8217;re related to this company that we can use, and it&#8217;ll help you and help them.&#8217; He started having a couple of people text me. He had [Bobby] Roode text me, which is pretty great. Well, we&#8217;re buddies, but it was just like him texting me out of the group chat like, something important is happening. It was really funny, and I was like, All right, I&#8217;ll give it a shot. I go eight dates, so that way I can still travel the world and go test myself. One day in, it&#8217;s not even fake, it&#8217;s real. I&#8217;m like, Oh, this locker room kicks ass. Everybody is open to creative ideas, and they&#8217;re really looking for some little spark just to keep rocking and rolling along the way. The really funny thing is, the first taping I was at, I&#8217;m like, man, everyone&#8217;s so great. Locker room&#8217;s ridiculously nice. I know some people. I just see everybody and I go, Yeah, man, I&#8217;m so mad. I&#8217;m gonna stay here. One taping in, and one taping in, Scott D&#8217;Amore is out, my boss, who said, here&#8217;s what we&#8217;re gonna do, here&#8217;s what we&#8217;re gonna do, he&#8217;s out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On whether he was close to joining AEW:<\/b> &#8220;I wasn&#8217;t. I love so many people there. I&#8217;ve had a couple of conversations with Tony in the past, and I rooted for those guys every step of the way. AEW being a thing helped a bunch of people out, worst-case scenario, with negotiating and setting up their career for years down the line. I go if this ends in two or three years, it helped a bunch of people out and put some other people on TV, and they&#8217;re rocking and rolling and doing their thing. I watched every Wednesday, because I have to talk about it on Thursday. And it&#8217;s another one where I gotta watch wrestling. It&#8217;s like kind of a joke, but I&#8217;ve like come to learn all the people on the show and watching what they do. I don&#8217;t know if I could do all the stuff that everyone does. Their top circle, the whole show, really, it has so many different moving parts and pieces to it that I don&#8217;t know that I could, from my old style. I can adapt to anything, and I have been, and I even watched. The 2025 version of me still applies some different things that I wouldn&#8217;t have done a few years ago. But I don&#8217;t know if in a 35-45 minute match, if it wasn&#8217;t with me and Bryan Danielson or Jon Moxley, those guys where I know what they&#8217;ve done, and I can move around and do some things, but it&#8217;s like, if it&#8217;s remembering a sequence like I&#8217;m getting 30 guys in Contra every two minutes, I would be more vacant in the match, instead of like feeling the emotion and just remembering it. I go, I don&#8217;t know how they do it, but when it comes to those pay-per-views, they blow the roof off, and it&#8217;s incredible. And I just really thought with TNA, I go, I will never, ever be Kurt Angle. He&#8217;s just my hero, but I know that he did something special with going to TNA and I go, maybe, just maybe, this guy that a bunch of people, most people, seem to respect and have been waiting to see what I can do, maybe me showing up here and being involved could be another spark that does something, because they&#8217;re already getting talked about and making some moves, and they&#8217;ve been a insane brand for years. But I go, maybe, just maybe, me being there makes this a bigger and better place by 1%. Then, falling in love with the locker room and everyone behind the scenes, I just go, this is the fit. I wasn&#8217;t going to go anywhere. I didn&#8217;t want to. A couple dates for somebody and a couple dates at AEW, 100 percent I would have done that. But I just go, I need to travel the world and be able to sleep at night knowing that I can go, because I talked this sh*t for 15 years. &#8216;No one&#8217;s better, no one can follow me.&#8217; Sorry about the booking, but that&#8217;s not my call. And it&#8217;s like, now it&#8217;s like, back it up or don&#8217;t. And I had to, and I would have gone almost anywhere for a few dates just to check it out, but TNA was the fit. I would have watched their progression from the outside if I wasn&#8217;t there, but I&#8217;m rooting for all those guys and girls.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On a possible WWE return:<\/b> &#8220;Maybe, but I really love what I&#8217;m doing. I really, really love what we&#8217;re doing as a company, and what I get to do on my free time, plus with the company. So, sure, possibly something. [But it would still be with TNA?] Yeah, and that&#8217;s fine. I&#8217;ve said this since they started talking together and making things public about everything with WWE&#8217;s relationship. I said, if I can help TNA get something, I will be there. If it&#8217;s to go to NXT and have a match, I&#8217;m not interested. I&#8217;ve done everything I could possibly do in NXT, and if it&#8217;s to do something with someone that I worked with, like Randy [Orton] or Cody [Rhodes] or Seth [Rollins] or something, I would be open to it if it helped TNA do something, or make a stride, or just get some kind of box checked to help us out. But otherwise, I will be cheering along on the outside.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>Why not NXT:<\/b> &#8220;I don&#8217;t think there&#8217;s anywhere for me to go there. I was the champ, and if I went there and was in a battle royal and lost, what am I doing? That doesn&#8217;t help TNA get on the map somewhere. Now, if it&#8217;s come fight our champion, and because of this, we&#8217;ll have someone come to TNA and do something. Please use me to negotiate, because I want what&#8217;s best for TNA, and there&#8217;s some things there. But for the most part, I would much rather NXT, especially what NXT is, let&#8217;s get Leon Slater there. Let&#8217;s get some people who are young, up-and-comers, who get a piece of that. And then maybe the eyes of the boss of instead of just Shawn Michaels, maybe Triple H goes, &#8216;Who the hell is this guy? Who is this girl? Oh, my God. Okay, we can bring them up and do something with them.&#8217; That&#8217;s what I would much rather see. We have an insane talent roster, guys and gals that some I&#8217;m just getting to know, but some I&#8217;ve been locked in and following, and that would be great for them. I don&#8217;t think me being there helps TNA. And if it does, you bet your ass I&#8217;m there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>On the infamous Iron Man match with Seth Rollins:<\/b> &#8220;This was at the time where, no matter what you think of Roman [Reigns] now, he&#8217;s amazing, 11 out of 10. But at the time, he was being forced on people to constantly be the guy, and he&#8217;s great. But just at the time, he was force-fed nonstop. Vince [McMahon] goes, &#8216;This is gonna stick one way or another, whether it takes six years or ten or whatever.&#8217; They&#8217;re like, God, we&#8217;re so sick of this, the same guy every time he&#8217;s in the main event, and he&#8217;s out. They go, God, I wish the guys fighting for the Intercontinental title would be out there. I wish Seth would be in the main event. Wish Dolph would get it. We got it. We got a shot. Finally, against the boss&#8217;s maiden wishes, we&#8217;re going to main event this pay-per-view, Intercontinental title is in the main event. It&#8217;s an Iron Man match. Seth, who you love, Dolph, who you mostly hate, and are good wrestlers. The guys that you are begging for, the workhorse guys, to get a shot. All the stars align. Vince still says no, and we talk him into it. We&#8217;re main eventing the show, and like three minutes in the crowd just starts doing the clock. I just put a hold on. I&#8217;m like, man, what is happening? And they&#8217;re not even doing the clock right, so it&#8217;s kind of screwing me up. Then I missed something, because they&#8217;re going, \u20187,6\u2026&#8217; and it&#8217;s like 10 or something. I&#8217;m like, what? It&#8217;s not even a countdown. It&#8217;s just the time. And then a third of the way through, they go, \u2018Don&#8217;t worry, don&#8217;t worry, we&#8217;re taking it off the screen.&#8217; I go, \u2018No, no, don&#8217;t do that.&#8217; They take it off the screen. So the crowd just starts going &#8217;10, 9\u2026&#8217; every 10 seconds. It&#8217;s not even every minute now; they&#8217;re doing it every 10 seconds. So now, instead of the last 10 seconds of every minute, it&#8217;s every 10 seconds. They&#8217;re just counting down. And now I don&#8217;t know what time it is, and now, most importantly, they&#8217;re not paying attention to the match. I go, man, that&#8217;s on us to get them back. We tried, and it wasn&#8217;t my best night, because I was a little out of it, because I was trying to do something on the fly that would change. But I&#8217;m trying to express that to Seth, while we&#8217;re going to these pieces that we got to get to every certain amount of minutes. And it&#8217;s just yeah, the crowd, internet crowd, live crowd, they begged for a shot for the IC title, for Seth, for myself, anything but Roman, they got it, and Vince went, \u2018See I was right, you&#8217;re all wrong.&#8217; And then it was out. So thanks a lot.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-977110094\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\"
