Last Night’s iMPACT!: Solid @ImpactWrestling show
Wednesday night highlighted by the Ladder match and the title bout between
Lashley and Roode. Funny what happens when a show isn’t overwritten and is
booked to play to a talent’s strengths which, for TNA, is the bell to bell
physicality. They also increased their rating on @SpikeTV which is good only a
few weeks after moving somewhat abruptly to Wednesday nights.

On His Upcoming MMA Announcing Debut: Getting ready to do
mucho media next week for the Battleground MMA PPV I’m broadcasting with Chael
Sonnen on Friday October 3 emanating from Tulsa and featuring the return of the
grueling, 8 man, single elimination tournament with 50K going to the winner.
It’s exciting to be finally able to nab a MMA play by play assignment and
working with the controversial, highly intelligent Sonnen will be a blast. I
hope that you will consider giving us a shot on Friday night October 3 on PPV.
Please check with your cable or satellite provider for all the info.

On His Autobiography: My writing partner Scott Williams
and I are planning devoting several days next week to my autobiography. We hope
to have multiple 10-12 hour days in Norman as we continue to chip away at this
challenging undertaking. One doesn’t know how writing about one’s life is until
it’s in progress. I find myself emotional when I talk about my parents, laughing
out loud at some of the stories, grateful for the people and the life lessons
that I’ve learned and, at times, highly pissed off at some experiences I’ve
encountered. When one knows where many ‘skeletons’ are buried from those that
were once considered friends, etc it’s a tough decision as to what to include
and what to omit. I will assure one and all that what ever I chose to write
about will be the truth. We hope to have the book done by Spring or Summer of
2015.
