On Vince McMahon’s Likely Reaction To ROH Selling Out MSG: “I think there is a big part of him that is probably hurt pretty bad, just thinking about the tradition of his grandfather and his father promoting in The Garden. But at the same time, the Vince McMahon of today has grown a lot too, and sees it as, alright, it is a part of growing. It is a part of progression and we will have a new home and move on.”

On WWE’s Shift To a TV Rights Based Business : “As far as revenue for the company, when we started getting big television rights that was when it started to change. well as when we started to have competition from WCW then we realized that we had to change the product and we had to compete, which we had to do it on television. We were being paid for that, in addition to the house shows, you are getting a television rights fee, which was when it started to change.”
