– Based on what we saw on last week’s episode of Impact Wrestling, it appears TNA is dissolving the tag team of Austin Aries and Bobby Roode. The former tag team champions suffered back-to-back losses at Slammiversary and this past week’s Impact and have been wrestling singles matches at TNA live events. Both men will be competing independently in the TNA Bound For Glory series, which culminates at October’s Bound For Glory pay-per-view.

– TNA star AJ Styles was involved in an altercation with a fan at this past weekend’s TNA live event from Aiken, South Carolina, according to a report at PWTorch.com.

While approaching the ring, Styles was heckled by a fan. AJ grabbed a steel chair and got in the fan’s face, telling him to come over the guard rail and fight him. After the exchange, Styles briefly went back into the ring, only to exit and continue jarring with the fan. Styles continued encouraging the fan to head to the back with him where they could fight, but the fan ultimately backed down.

Styles would then go on to defeat Bobby Roode using his new Calf Killer submission hold.

Randy Orton was recently interviewed by Brian Soscia of Beneaththemat.com to promote his new WWE Studios movie “12 Rounds: Reloaded” and spoke about his future in wrestling and working with Hulk Hogan early in his career. Here are some highlights:

His future in wrestling and how long he will be around:

“I think the tank is still pretty much full. What I try to do is every couple months take a weekend off. Sometimes with us times flies by and before you know it you haven’t a day off, a good nights sleep in a long time. Your body needs that. Your mind needs that. When you got a family you have to find a week here and there throughout the year where you can just hang up your boots and be a dad, be a husband, and not travel around the world being a WWE Superstar. Everybody needs that.”

Working with Hulk Hogan:

“It was great, it was magical with him, guys that are over like that. If you get teh chance in there with someone that well known, even though I think he had a hard time moving around, it didn’t matter.”

“I wouldn’t say I’m WWE for life, I’d say my near future will consist of me primarily being in the ring,” Orton said. “Wrestling is my first love. The movie was fun, but the schedule was grueling because I had to fly off on my off days to film. Eight weeks went by and I had three days off. If I do the movie thing, I’ll be sure that I’m only doing the movie so I can concentrate on it. (Laughs) I think I’d be more sane that way.”

– WWE Diva AJ Lee was recently interviewed by FayObserver.com to promote one of this weekend’s WWE Live Events. One of the more newsworthy quotes came when she was asked about how much of a “diva” she is in real life:

“Diva is a funny word because the connotation isn’t the greatest,” Lee said. “For me, it means being smart, sexy and powerful. It’s my goal to redefine the word. I’m in the WWE, but right now I’m at home on my couch watching Arrested Development. I work out and hang out with my dog and play video games. I’m not the diva archetype; I’m 115 pounds with no curves. I’m the ‘homely diva,’ but I’m proud to be so different and to be a face of the WWE.”

Former WWE Superstar Bob “Hardcore” Holly recently spoke to WrestlingHeels Radio about WWE, the Brock Lesnar injury, Triple H and NASCAR. Here are some highlights from the interview:
Fandango and being Vince’s pet project: 
“If you’re Vince’s pet project, you pretty much – you’re a shoe-in there. And all you got to do is just listen to him and do what he asks of you, and you’ll have it made because he’ll make sure that you get over. He will. Just do what he says. And listen to him. And you will get over. So yeah, if he’s got Vince behind him like that, that guy’s got it made.
“And another thing I love about what he [Fandango] does too is the way he gets in the ring. After he makes his entrance, watch the way he gets in the ring. He does that. Nobody’s ever done it that way. And to me, that’s different, and I like that. But yeah if he’s Vince’s pet project, the guy’s got it made. He just has to make sure he listens to him and doesn’t get the attitude well, I’m gonna do what I want to do, despite of what he says. Because then that’ll be the demise of him. Which hopefully – I think he’s smart enough and he knows who to listen to. So I wish the guy all the best. I really do. I really do.”
CM Punk’s backstage demeanor:
“To me, he seemed like he was happy. He really did. it’s hard to tell. He wasn’t one to complain at all. You’d never hear him complain. So you wouldn’t know if something was wrong. I mean, I talked to him. We talked all the time in the locker room, just talking about anything, in general.
“And one thing I will say – and I have a ton of respect for Punk. I really do. And he was always happy for me whenever they would start doing something for me. ‘Cause he always said you deserve it, and stuff like that. And he was one of the guys who always told me he was happy for me whenever anything good would come along for me. And that meant a lot to me.
“And I’ve always had tons of respect for him. And especially after I started working with him because here’s a guy that he brings it. He will bring it to you. And I respect that out of him because whatever I did to him, he did back to me. And I really enjoyed that. That’s what I like out of guys that’ll bring it. And I always enjoyed working with him.
” The first time I worked with him, it was kind of – we had kind of a different style. But after we started working a couple times, I really enjoyed working with the guy. I really, really did. But he was always very kind. Always very kind in the locker room. And anywhere you’d go and talk to him, he was always really, really nice.”

WWE Superstar Daniel Bryan attended the Philadelphia Comic Con last weekend and spoke to John Corrigan of The Temple News. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

His Recent Success in WWE:

“When I go to Target and see my own action figure, it makes me feel stupid because I’m not doing anything different than I was before. It’s just that I’m on TV … I’ve wrestled in front of less people than this in a room smaller than this and when I walked out, instead of people chanting ‘yes,’ they just stared at me in apathy,”

ROH Alum Nigel McGuiness: 

“…my favorite ROH rivalry was with Nigel McGuinness. Nigel was signed at the same time as me, but he had some shoulder and elbow stuff that didn’t clear WWE’s medical testing and now he’s out of the business altogether. It’s a loss because he’s great on interviews, in the ring, and really just a fun guy to be around.”

TNA wrestler Chris Sabin interview
Host: Ryan Rider
Interview conducted for CJAD.com

Sabin on his return: “I’m just happy to be back. It was really intriguing to sit at home injured and see Austin Aries make that rule that you can trade in the X Division Title for a world title shot. That gave me a lot of motivation.”

Whether he fears getting injured again: “There’s always that voice in the back of your mind. I wasn’t expecting to get injured the first time or the second time. I’m going to try to ignore that voice in my head that says ‘what if?’. You just kind of have to do whatever you can and bury that voice in your head. I gotta watch out for my health. I’ll always try to do the best I can to put on the most entertaining match for the fans but first and foremost, I gotta protect myself.”

Doctors telling him to quit: “A lot of people didn’t want me to wrestle anymore. For an athlete, two ACL surgeries is a pretty big deal. I tried to keep as much athletic ability and train as hard as I could to get back to the level I was at before.”

Growing up in TNA from March 2003 to today: “Literally, I spent a third of my life in TNA. When I first started for the company it was so small, we were just doing Nashville and weekly PPVs. The company has grown and grown and grown. I like to reflect that, and hopefully I’ve grown as a person and as a wrestler. I plan on continuing to become a better wrestler.”

Aspirations to be TNA World Champion: “When your dream is to become a wrestler and it’s taken away for two years with two knee surgeries, you sit at home and reflect. You think about things, think about your life. I didn’t do this to go half way; I did this to go all the way. I did this to become the best. And that will always remain my goal.”

Injured TNA Jesse Sorensen recently spoke with CJAD.com about his neck injury from last year, when he plans to return to the ring and more. Here are some highlights of what he said about:

His Neck Injury: “When I first got hurt, I had no feeling from the neck down so it was very scary. I thought I was the next Christopher Reeves. I was completely paralyzed for two days and told I would never move again, never wrestle again. I’m very blessed.”

His Ongoing Recovery: “Right after I got out of the ICU, I had to sit in a neck brace for three months then I had six months of rehab to strengthen my neck and try to get back in the gym. Now I’m fully back in the gym and everything’s going good. I actually have my first bodybuilding show in October in Tampa.”

A Potential Return to the Ring: “My passion for the business – I love this business. It’s my dream, always has been and it’s really what I wanted to do. So many say it was a job and now you’re done with it and tell me to find something else to do. But when it’s your passion, it’s all I think about is getting back in the ring. As of right now, it’s not really up to me [when to return]. I want to focus on the bodybuilding show for a little while. But I would like to hopefully return before the end of 2013.”

“This is not a joke. 3 masked guys with guns broke into my parents house through the kitchen window. They tied my folks up and my brother too.

 

They had guns pointed. At them. They checked the downstair door where me and my wife stay, but it was locked. They took some jewelry .. But they never got to us. I’ve never felt so violated and helpless. They even pointed a gun and threaten to shoot my brothers son who never woke to see what happened thank god.

 

Wow I’m blown away. So many emotions. I never thought this could happen to me .. So many cops where here, none of them did anything that was helpful.

 

Scary thing is they knew who the family was. Crazy who would do such a thing. Thats why I gotta be careful on who I let into my life.

 

Sorry guys I had to vent to somebody. I just wish I could have done something. I thought this sh#t only happened in movies.”

Jesse Ventura Talks About Running For President In 2016, Linda McMahon’s Costly Senate Runs

JESSE VENTURA SPEAKS OUT ON LINDA MCMAHON’S COSTLY SENATE RUN, WHAT WRESTLING PERSONALITY WOULD HAVE MADE THE BEST POLITICIAN, WHETHER HE’LL RUN FOR PRESIDENT IN 2016, AND MORE

By WeWantInsanity.com

He’s the most talked about guest in ClubWWI.com history. Now, Jesse “The Body” Ventura returns to the Club for his third (and most explosive) interview yet. Jesse speaks to James Guttman for 35 minutes (100 total in all three interviews) about everything including how Vince McMahon Jr. would fair in politics, why President Obama hasn’t closed Gitmo, his own experience with IRS audits, death threats for joining WWF in the 1980s, getting wrestlers over on commentary, and tons more.

The full audio is available at ClubWWI.com. Catch a free clip and read the full list of topics at WeWantInsanity.com.

You can also pick up Jesse’s paperback copy of “DemoCRIPS and ReBLOODlicans: No More Gangs in Government” at Amazon.com.

Jesse Ventura’s last appearance on ClubWWI.com was back in 2010 and before WWE’s Linda McMahon ran (and lost) twice for the U.S. Senate. Linda’s campaign famously spent just short of 100 million dollars in her bid. James Guttman asks Jesse about this. Did Linda’s tie-in with wrestling hurt her chances? Ventura’s not sure, but he knows a better way that money could have been spent.

“I don’t know, but I’ll tell you this. If Vince would have given me that kind of money, I’d be the President. How’s that for a quote?”

James laughs and says, “That’s going right in the headline now.”

Ventura, through laughter, continues:

“When I ran for governor, I only raised $300,000. And that’s a statewide race, like the senate. I only raised $300,000. I made more money doing the job. The job of governor paid $120,000 a year. So I made $480,000 for the four years and I only spent $300,000 to get the job. If I would have had that money, I’d be the President. You give me that much money to spend on an election and I’ll be President. (laughs) I think that answers your question in a very humorous, funny Jesse “The Body” Ventura type of way.”

Jesse is well known for avoiding special interest groups and money from lobbyists. His new paperback book, “”DemoCRIPS and ReBLOODlicans: No More Gangs in Government”, covers how the same lobbyists appear at both conventions. Ventura has stood up to this new status-quo for years and it’s brought him heat from all angles. However, it’s no different than his wrestling run. In wrestling, like politics, true “straight shooters” are hard to find. JG asks Jesse who, out of all the people he’s met in the wrestling industry, would have made the best politician. Jesse barely needs a moment to think as he reveals his answer to ClubWWI listeners:

“Without a doubt, the best and smoothest would be Vince McMahon Sr., not Junior. Vince McMahon Sr. was the coolest, smoothest operator out of all the promoters I ever met – out of anybody in that whole business. You could be madder than a hornet and you’d go in and meet with him, you’d walk out feeling great but accomplish nothing. You’d feel good about yourself. Yet, he didn’t give you a thing. I won’t go into any specifics more than that. I think that describes Vince McMahon Sr. and I think it describes him in a very positive way. That’s how good he was.”

Although all of Jesse’s appearances on ClubWWI.com have been momentous, this one might be the biggest. Recently, it was implied that Ventura might run for President in 2016. James Guttman likes that idea and presented the question to him like this:

“This country loves firsts. John F. Kennedy was the first catholic president. Barack Obama was the first African-American president. Personally, I’m waiting for the first former AWA World Tag Team Champion president. Now it could be Doug Somers, could be Marty Jannetty. But, I’d like it to be you. Governor Jesse Ventura, will that day come in my lifetime?”

Again, The Body tells it like it is:

“If there’s a grassroots movement to get me ballot access in all 50 states and if they can somehow guarantee – either they protest their brains out to make sure – I’m included in debates. Because you have to be able to debate, I would give it serious consideration. But I’m not going to spend money to get ballot access. It would have to be grassroots effort by people in every state. I need to know that. Because the thing I find most despicable about public service is the obscene money and the sellout and bribery. Jesse Ventura will not sell out to the bribery of special interests. I never took a dime of special interest money when I was governor and I never once, in four years as governor, met with a lobbyist. And I will keep that integrity. So that will require the American people to have to jump through a lot of hoops to get me to do it. Plus, it would mean I would have to leave Mexico and it will require that amount of work from you all to ever even get me to entertain the thought.”

Remember, Jesse Ventura is one of over 300 guests you can hear the moment you join ClubWWI.com. From Jerry Lawler to Dennis Stamp, everyone is there in our 7 year archives. Join the Insanity today and hear all you’ve been missing!
