I'm excited it is Jeff Hardy and Mr. Anderson because I think they are two of the big upcoming names in TNA. I believe you're going to see a lot of great things in this match. The match will be match of the year. We're going to steal the show and give the TNA fans a really great main event."
Comparing Bound for Glory to WrestleMania:"In TNA they give every wrestler on the card the ability to steal the show. We're ALL put in a position where you're trying to have the best match. And that's why a lot of the matches are so good."
On Kurt's Reaction to Several of the Stars Who Have Come In:"I have mixed feelings. I don't exactly want somebody to come in from WWE and win the title from our best wrestler, which is AJ Styles. Rob Van Dam is a featured kind of wrestler, Jeff Hardy is as well. Mr. Anderson never really got his real chance, and I'm thankful for that. Right now, we actually has a better roster than WWE. The TNA wrestlers here have carried the company to this point and they deserve a lot of credit. We need to utilize those guys, and let the former WWE guys somewhat enhance them."
Comparing TNA to WWE:"A lot of times, WWE doesn't get all that they could out of their wrestlers. I don't think an AJ Styles could have done all that he did if he were in WWE. There is no wrestler better in the world than AJ Styles. He's the best in the world. It just shows that we're able to utilize wrestlers differently than WWE. We're not just that prototype 6'2″, 240 pound man."
Kurt's "Dream" Final Opponent:"I had a good little run with Randy Orton, but he wasn't as good as he is now. I think [Randy] is the best wrestler up there right now. He carries that company as a character and as a wrestler. I see another guy that's going to step up that I want to wrestle is the Miz. He's really stepped up in recent years. In TNA, I'd love to do more with the X Division guys, let them wrestle their style as I wrestle mine."
On Vince McMahon:"I loved Vince. We ended badly, but he and I had a great relationship for a long time. He was like a father to me. Vince and I just weren't on the same page. I was burned out. I felt trapped and overworked and just wanted to get out. Vince did the right thing."
