Miami Herald interview
Bryan talks to The Miami Herald about Total Divas and Brie Bella.
As of now, I don’t know where it’s at because the audiences are so different, but I would like to think it’s (Total Divas) going to bring more female fans to WWE to watch the divas because the divas are really good at what they do. So I’m hoping that cross-section starts coming over. That would be great.

Wrestling101.com interview
DiBiase discusses his 1979 run in WWE:
I wasn’t even there for a year, but I went there and I was brought in the North American Heavyweight Champion. They had their World Champion, their World Tag Team Champions and their Womens World Champion, that was it, there weren’t any other belts. I let Vince McMahon Sr. know that one of the belts that Bill Watts had in Mid-South was the North American Championship, then when I lost the belt to Pat Patterson, Vince then made up a story about the Intercontinental title. There is a little bit of history there, people say Pat Patterson was the first Intercontinental champion, truth is I was.

Henry talks to Mohr Stories about life outside of wrestling and his early career.
I want to be known as a great dad more than anything. Kids – young men find it uncool to be a dad I think. It’s very cool to me … I love being at home with my kids. I got pissed yesterday because I get a call and a video, that my daughter swam for the first time without the floaties on. I miss all that kind of stuff.

NST.com interview
Booker T talks to NST.com about possibly returning to the ring and working the Royal Rumble match.
I wouldn’t call it a comeback (laughs). I’m semi-retired and to work around these schedules that the younger wrestlers and the divas (applies to the female talent, whether as wrestlers, managers or ring announcers) is rough. It’s a young man’s sport. I don’t want to be one of those wrestlers who still holds on to the past, hearing all the roars from the crowd.

If you remember, Steve. I started in this business 43 years ago. I had my first match in 1970. The business was different then. The people saw the wrestlers as huge stars but it was on a more regional business. I remember knowing you’d arrived if you made one thousand dollars in a week. That was when you knew you’d made it.

The decision, which was made by McMahon, was first told to us by a source in the company that it was possible, if not likely on the day of SummerSlam, stemming from the now-infamous 2K Sports symposium where Ric Flair spoke at length about a variety of subjects. … Ross took heat from management for not cutting Flair off and keeping the symposium to what it was scripted to be.

I always wondered if that hurt me. I was never the kind to go out with the agents and I was never anybody’s boy. So I wondered if that hurt me in the meetings. Someone would say, “Who are we going to put against Khali? how about this guy?” Then their guy would stand up for them and say, “No, not him… maybe Scotty!”
