On moving TV tapings out of Orlando: "For us to be - I'm not going to say 'legit,' because I believe that we're a legit company, but it's just - for that more professional look and a different look, it'll make our company that bit better," Roode said. "Obviously, I'm not the man who pays the bills; I'm not the wallet, so to speak, but, in order for us to take that one step further I think it's a necessity for us to step away from Orlando and do our television tapings elsewhere in the country."
On his haircut: "For eight years, people have had to witness how dry and curly it gets towards the end of a 30-minute match. And, it was giving me a headache. It was certainly time for a change, to look a bit more modern. And it is in keeping with all the suits I wear. I look more hip."
On Steiner's anti-TNA rants: "Scott's Scott. He's a good friend of mine so I can't speak bad of Scott. He's a character. Obviously, he has some ill-feelings to certain people but those are his own personal issues and don't involve me. I don't believe I have any enemies in the business and I want to keep it that way."
On whether TNA will miss Ric Flair: "I believe so. I think just the name, having that legendary name around was beneficial. But, I don't think it is going to hurt us, we have a lot of talent. I think Impact Wrestling can stand on its own without Ric Flair but it's always nice to have a guy like that around."
