Forbes interview

Interview0 Comments

Busted Open interview

Interview0 Comments

Mangus talks to Busted Open Radio about TNA using social media and focus.

People think because that they watch a few DVD’s that document one part of history and how the business went and they are able to predict what’s going to happen in a completely new set of circumstance and I tend to ignore it and I don’t really give it much thought. These are basically the people that throw something out there with no filter because they are nobodies and I’m not trying to knock anyone.

Mancuso tells Shape Magazine about her biggest competition on the slopes.

Lindsey Vonn is queen of the downhill, so if she’s skiing well and healthy, she’s the one to beat. There’s also Tina Maze from Slovenia. She had an incredible season last year. We were always neck and neck in my best event, the Super-G. That’s the girl to beat for me.

 

MLW.com interview

Interview0 Comments

Konnan talks to MLW.com to talk about Michael Hayes’ heat in WWE.

I was a huge Michael Hayes fan, Freebirds fan, when I was growing up, when I used to watch him in Atlanta. Every time I’ve seen Michael, he’s always been very cool with me backstage. But having said that, I will say this, he does have a ton of heat with people. I do know a couple people that told me that if they got fired they would kick his ass before they left the company. And I just found out today that he did get mega heat I guess for having drinks with Rosa [Mendes]. So much so, that he might be replaced. Boom.

You would never have known that she was going out with Prince Harry. She didn’t talk about it. She’s a fixture on the London nightlife scene populated by the rich and aristocratic.”She went to a lot of events, but that’s because of who she was. I wouldn’t say she was a party girl as such. She was always up for fun, but I wouldn’t say she’s out doing shots every night of the week.

Heck, I knew at first glance what a talented young man he was. He came in good, for heaven’s sakes.

He knew it was going to be a long road for him, and none of those things bothered him. He had a fantastic attitude absolutely every day, day in and day out.

Career Girls interview

Interview0 Comments

In an interview with Career Girls, Gouw says she looks for three things when deciding to invest in a start-up company. The first is the person, the entrepreneur, and their passion and drive, as well as their “domain expertise” and what they know about the space.

We really want to back the person who wants to make that successful for the long haul.

The second is whether she believes there is a market and a need for the product. The third is about the product – how unique it is, and how technically difficult or technically different it is, and whether the customers love it.

Albinism interview

Interview0 Comments

Nyong’o shares her experience coming to America. She reflects on how important it is to her to see herself as Black now that she is in America, after studying albinism.

Albinism in particular was an interesting subject because they’re the one group of people that unify all races. Having come to the United States was the first time that I really had to consider myself as being black and to learn what my race meant. Because race is such an important part of understanding American society.

There’s a little added to it, especially with dos Santos being the type of fighter he is and how good he is. We’re two of the best guys in this division.

Daily Star interview

Interview0 Comments

Guerrero talks to The Daily Star about what Eddie would think of the current WWE product.

I don’t think he’d like it too much the way it is now, because it is hard for a young wrestler to get that seasoned experience. You can disguise it all you want with explosions and pyro and entrances, but when it comes down to it in the ring, it’s you and that other person. That’s it.

Dustin is better than he’s ever been. Cody now gets to mirror and travel with Dustin. To get an education from a great in-ring performer who is also a cult character is rare. To have that teacher happen to be your brother is an amazing learning process.
