Shawn Daivari opened the show by talking about his move from WWE to TNA. He said at first he questioned the move from time to time. He now says he no longer questions it. He knows that it was the best move for him at this point in his career.

Daivari then discussed his time in Japan and the work that he was able to do with the Great Muta. Daivari stated, "It is very rare that they do much with an American on their first and second tour."

A caller then asked about his relationship with Muhammed Hassan. "We still talk on a very regular basis, just not about wrestling."

Barbie asked about any culture shock in Japan? "I am very good at adapting. I take instruction and direction very well," Daivari stated. "After the first couple of shows I got the hang of it."

When asked about his character in Japan "It is completely different in Japan they do not have heat with the Middle East over there." When asked about a language barrier over in Japan Daivari sated, "It is more like an athletic contest in Japan, you know who leads and who follows."

When asked about the X Cup, he said: "I thought it was a great way for me to get in the door at TNA. I am really happy with what they have planned for me. I think this character will follow with me. Whatever is exciting for the audience I will do."

Jack asked about his involvement and say in his promos with TNA. "They are super receptive to my ideas," he said. "99 percent of the time I hit the key points but I make it my own."

Jack asked about the six sided ring. "It has never thrown me off yet. Going off the ropes can be a little more difficult."

When asked about Mick Foley he said: “I feel he was one of the best supporting characters in wrestling history." Daivari feels it would be great for TNA to have a knowledgeable veteran on the staff, and feels it would great for TNA from the office to the fans.

When asked about advice for a future wrestler, he suggested, “Take advice from everyone and use what applies to you."

When asked about a return to WWE “Always a chance for a possible return.”

What did you think of WWE's Jeff Hardy "unconscious in a stairwell" storyline?
It was a brilliant final hook for the pay-per-view.
It was a turnoff, but it's par for the course with WWE.
It was one of the sleaziest stunts the company has ever done.
