WWE.com interview
Triple H talks to WWE.com about WWE TLC and CM Punk.
I didn’t happen to see C.M. Punk’s promo Monday night because I was a little bit busy creating the biggest match in WWE history. That being said, C.M. Punk says a lot of things; he runs his mouth a lot. It doesn’t make a difference to me. It’s irrelevant to me. He can say whatever he wants. I’m not phased by it. All I care about is C.M. Punk shows up and does his job.

There are so many people who have not been where you have been. They’ve not been there with the roar of the crowd so loud and you have that look on your face where you know the place is going to go bonkers!
The Art of Wrestling interview
Austin is a guest on The Art of Wrestling to discuss WWE, podcasting and making money early on in the business.
My whole existence running up and down the road, making 15-20 dollars a night. When they told me they were sending me back to Texas. I thought I got fired. They said, “No… we’re gonna turn you heel and put you against Chris (Champion).” I was guaranteed 100 dollars per night. I thought I was making superstar money.
The Art of Wrestling interview
Storm is a guest on The Art of Wrestling to discuss his wrestling career and his serious guy gimmick.
Everyone knows me as me. I’m the guy who never smiles and never has fun. A lot of my serious nature comes from being somewhat shy and reserved. The longer people get to know me, the more I get out of my shell and they all claim to be the one who got me out of my shell.

WWE got in contact with the Haven producers, who were interested in using a wrestler. WWE said, “We got this guy. He just retired. We think he can do it.” And it just worked out.

That turned into seven (episodes) and then being asked back again next season and becoming one of the focal characters of the show.
Big WrestleShark Show interview
Nash discusses going to WWE for the first time:
The biggest difference was I was in WCW, which was a television company that had wrestling and I went to the WWE, which was a wrestling company that did wrestling. It’s what they did, they specialized in it. From production, to professionalism, to direction, it was so night and day. Business was down then when I got there in ’93. But at the same time business was ten times better in WWE than it was in WCW. We’d get to buildings and the guys would be complaining the house was down, and I’d look through the curtain and it’d be the biggest crowd I’d ever worked in front of.
WWE.com interview
Kidd talks to WWE.com about his return to in-ring competition, the injury that kept him out of action and his plans for the future in the company.
I thought my knee would never be the same again. After about three or four months, I could go to the gym normally and I could start to run on a treadmill, but I knew I couldn’t wrestle and take impact. I couldn’t jump off the one foot and stick a landing. I knew it wasn’t there. But I remember thinking, “Is my knee ever going to be 100 percent?”
WGD Weekly interview
Animal talks to WGD Weekly about the signature L.O.D. look and working with Vince McMahon.
At the time Vince had the Ultimate Warrior. At first he tried to tell us, nobody knows who you are up here. I said, ‘Vince, come on, they know who we are.’ He said, ‘well, I gotta change your name, I can’t call you the Road Warriors, I got the Ultimate Warrior.’ Hawk and I were thinking, ‘that’s kind of dumb that he is acting like this.’ So, we said, ‘how about the Legion of Doom?’ And we used that, at the time, there was no rhyme or reason to anything he did
Charleston Post and Courier interview
Goldust talks to Charleston Post and Courier about being in the best shape of his career and working with his brother.
I think I’ve stumbled upon the fountain of youth or something. I’m 44 years old and I’m down to high school weight (225). But I’ve worked hard for it the past few years. Plus being with Cody gives me more motivation. I’ve really enjoyed this storyline we’ve been doing.
Busted Open Radio interview
Jericho talks to Busted Open Radio about Shawn Michaels ever wrestling again and Big Show.
Honestly knowing Shawn (Michaels), I don’t think so. That’s my opinion. He could but you look at the way he went out, in one of the greatest matches of all time at WrestleMania in the main event with this huge reception. The performer of Shawn Michaels caliber and his ego, and I say that in a good way because we all have egos, he is not going to come back for anything for less than that.
WGD Weekly interview
Shamrock talks to WGD Weekly about being black balled by WWE and what he thinks of Triple H.
I’d like to clarify that. There was a guy named Mark Henry, a strong man. He was in the locker room and there were a few guys involved. Hunter was one of them that put s–t in his sandwich and I told him. So, I think Hunter didn’t like me for that and I think Hunter didn’t like me for the fact that when I first came in Vince put me over on him.
