Former WWE and current TNA superstar D’Lo Brown recently joined Dan Barnsdall and Steve Grieve of the Total Wrestling ShowDuring the two hour broadcast, Brown discusses his current position in TNA, the company going on the road and cutting down on Pay-Per-Views, and more. Here are some notable quotes from the interview:

On being retired, then coming back into an active storyline, and wrestling again: When I retired I was going to be one of those guys that you know, I’m going to retire that was going to be it. Then I was very content with my role backstage doing my agenting thing and I was asked several times earlier than before Aces & 8’s to do something to get involved and I’d always turn it down. This time it just seemed right and it felt right, so I just went with it. 

On if D’Lo Brown is done with being on TV, or if he’ll be back to get revenge on Aces & 8’s:  Once again you never say “never”, you just gotta keep watching.

On TNA cutting back on the numbers on PPV events: I thought it was great move, um, I thought that PPVs, particularly one a month, fully never give you enough to chance to build a story. So you’re hot-shotting angles in 3 weeks just to get it in there, whereas now you can let it go and build, let people really sink their teeth into what they are watching. So there is a really big payoff at the PPV, as opposed to every 3 weeks let’s do something, get a great review, the next week let’s start something new. It became too quick a turnaround, I thought it was one of the, a brilliant idea to back it off to the big 4 PPVs and allow everything to grow.

On TNA going on the road:  I love the Impact Zone and it was really good to us, but the minute we stepped out and took Impact on the road it was just like flipping a light switch you know and the electricity just flowed. There’s this great relationship between crowd interaction and talent, we feed off them and they feed off us.
