His Impact Grand Championship Tournament Finals Match with Drew Galloway at Bound for Glory:

“Aside from the issues Drew and I have had which we’ve demonstrated, it has been exclusive to say the least… I am fully aware of what Drew is capable of. I’m fully aware of the athlete that he is. I believe he also knows what I bring to the table as well. This is a match… It is the chance to be the first at something. There will always be the “next champion” but to be the first is something that is very, very cool. You can always be the new champion but not too many opportunities come around to be the first champion. This is a way to cement your name in history and be part of something really cool. There’s three three minute rounds, there’s judges. There’s a different psychology that goes into it but it is also great. “

The changes in Impact Wrestling backstage:

“The changes going on here at Impact, it is already being felt. Just look at the stuff Matt Hardy is doing… Just look at how the show is being presented – And look at the talent! There is a lot of talent in this company. And, as the weeks go by, I think it is going to only become more apparent. Bound for Glory, a pay per view that is coming along at the same time as major changes within the company. We’re not necessarilly playing by the same rules that the industry has set for so long. We’re just presenting our product in a unique way and we’ve got the best athletes in the world going at it. It is only going to get better. It is only going to stand out more, I assure you.”

The freedom of working with TNA:

“Without a doubt. The freedom that I’ve gotten here and in return the loyalty that I already have for TNA because they gave me that freedom because I realize how valuable that is, it is a win-win situation for everyone. I think that is only going to continue. Is every relationship perfect? No. but, I’ll tell you what. The general direction that the company wants to go. The performers, the management… There’s a lot of people on the same page and there’s a lot of people working for the greater good.”
