Bobby Roode spoke to Justin Barrasso of Sports Illustrated about working with Ric Flair in TNA and being involved with NXT.

On working with Ric Flair in TNA:

“That moment with Ric was such a great moment. In that particular moment, I didn’t keep a straight face. I don’t think anyone in that ring kept a straight face. If you thought we did, it was just good editing by the camera crew.”

The moment in question is showcased in the video below, which we highly suggest. It features Jay Lethal and Ric Flair in a ‘woo-off.’ Roode was present for this segment.

NXT bringing back his passion:

“NXT brought my passion back. I got the chance to work with all the coaches down at the Performance Center, and I was able to pick Triple H’s brain, too. Also, working with Shawn Michaels was amazing. He’s been very supportive of me, and extremely helpful.”

If he has enjoyed the past year:

“This past year was really gratifying on many different levels. To come here with the experiences I’ve had, and to have the year I’ve had and be looked upon in the locker room as a leader with people coming to me for advice, it’s still surreal to me.”
