Steve Austin Show interview
Young is a guest on the Steve Austin Show to discuss TNA, improvisation and learning to wrestle.
I learned super quick. I did backyard wrestling when I was a kid. We didn’t wrestle in the grass. We built a ring out of an old trampoline and my dad had a friend who was a welder so we had poles and ropes and a full six sided ring so I could already kind of do a lot of the moves.

Ray talks about his singles career in TNA:
In the tag team world I was used to being in extremely high profile matches all over the world. So to become a high profile singles star I’m already used to the pressure and I’m able to channel that pressure into my performances. The only difference is now it’s all on me; it’s all on my shoulders from a total performance point of view. In a tag team match if you need a break or a breather you can always look to your partner and tag out but as a singles wrestler you can’t do that.

Raj Giri interview
Hardy talks about the advantages of wrestling in TNA:
I think TNA is a great place for newer guys to go, especially get some TV exposure to work TV for the first time. I think it’s a great move for TNA to get their TV program out where it’s in front of a different audience besides just the Impact Zone in Orlando. It’s just one of those things. TNA is in a growing process, they’re in a learning process. I think they’re going to make missteps along the way, but I think if TNA can continue to improve and continue to get better it’s really important because the more places we have to be, somewhat of a competitive level between brands,

Devon speaks about working with the young talent in TNA:
It was so easy because these guys wanted it just as bad as anyone else did.
